(From the N ztional Single Tazcr.) By the Religion of the Sinele Tax we d0 not mean a p1oposed substitute for Christianity, but one great and public application of Christianity, the religious side of the single tax movement. lf Chrsi tianity be true, its principles are Hood for application not Only to private careers but also to public relationships and functions. Let the fundamental principles of the Christian religion rule public affairs and all human life will be bcttci and l)l‘l"llt€l. As Benjamin Franklin once said : “ Whoever intro- duces into public nfi'airs the piinciplcs oi primitive Chiistianity will change the face of the world. " This gr-cttcr Christianity, not new but old, not old but new with every morn, preaches jus- tice rather than char'ity, love of biotners who are our equals in rivhts, rather l than condescending pity for those 11ho111 we regard as inferiors. It inspires and instructs men to save society rather than the selfish soul. It proclaims the brotherhood of man, not as a sickly sentimentalism, nor as a fine fancy, but , as a scientific fact. Humanity is one. It is far more than :1. selfish tie which binds us together in civilized society. \\ e are like peasants climbing the Alps, nature to the free access of mun. there would be no involuntary poverty." Let us add that soon there would be no 1'11'1- untary poverty. for men who could readily obtain a'seat at the well-filled table of life would soon be ashamed 11- citlier beg, starve 01' steal. ' 0-0 Bleeding Uncle Sam. There is severe comment at Wash- ington on some of the items of the Cen- eral Deficiency bill. The item 0t trans- portation for the Quartermaster Gene- ral's Department of the army is $53.- 000,000. This sum is three times the total for food and subsistence of the 111'- my for the same period. The figures for the latter are $15,307,000. Adding to the $53,000,000 the sum of $0,000.- 000 provided for the six months from July 1, gives :1. total of $59,000,000 for military transportation alone during a period of less than nine months. 1t will cost three times as much more to move the troops from the recruiting points to camp, and then to the front, as to feed the army during the same period. Transportation amounts to twice as much as for subsistence, outfit, camp supplies and all necessaries. A member of the House worked out the following conclusions : Assume that 275,000 men travel on an average 1,000 miles to the scat of war. This is an ex- travagant estimate. They return in six months over the same 1,000 miles. At $30 each, a high rate, the total cost. would be $8,250,000. You can go from New York to Chicago, 900 miles, for $19. Assume the liberal allowance for each man of 1,000 pounds’ weight of food. This, at $10 for 100 pounds hauled 1,000 miles, would amount to $2,750,000. If there are 30,000 mules and horses at $30 cuch, the total will be $900, 000. The sum of the above expenses is $11. 900 000 tor trans- po1'tati0n.Occan transportation is cost~ ly. The avciage daily rate last. week paid by the qnartcrmastcr’s depart- ment in the Atlantic and the Gulf was $20,825. On the Pacific it was $5.210 :1 day. The total is $20,035 per diein. During six months the total lor marine transportation would be $11,680,300. Adding this sum to the. cost 0t land transportation, the total becomes $16.- 586,300. This huge sum is but onc- third the whole amount called for by the bill. There are not 275,000 men in the army; hence the above figures afi'ord a most favorable showing for tho Quartcrmaster-Generals Department. The railroads are using all sorts ol' in’~ flueuce to secure transportation, except.‘ low rates 01' “ cut rates."
