| single Tax.
The single tax system has been s zealously advocated aud < iss minated du - ing the past decade that nearly all «rm familiar with it. Henry George, of New York, in his book, ** Progress and Pov erty,” paints the iniquities of our presen’ industrial system with a free hand, and a an effective remedy for the palpable in- justice guing on, he proposes the levying of a tax on land ani nething else. His ad- mirers and fvullowers can be counted by thousands. Their motto is: A single tax— that on land. To-day the man of money speculatvs in land. In this city, and i. ‘other cities as well, vacant lots, bought for a song by the fathers and grandfathers of the present owners, are still held for high r prices. No improvements of any kind ar made on them, and the tax is nominal Like the proverbial dog with the bone, they don’t use it themselves nor allow oihera to use it, except vn exhorbitant con ditions. These lots are now worth thous ands aud tens of thousands of dollars, and as population grows denser, will go on in- creasing in value. Who increases thir value ? Evidently not the legal owners, for they have done nothing to it but pay a very small tax. Magnificent buildings have eprang up On all sides, millions of doliars spent in street imprvvement, on sewers, ov electric lighting, and the various thousand and one things which go on in large cities, and population settling around and abou: these lots is the cause of the increase iu values. Justice, then, demands that this increase should go to whom it belongs—t the community. Land is something tha no man has made. The houses the firs: colonists built, the implements they use« have long ago perished, but the ssme lano is here that Columbus discovered. As al- ready sta'ed land held for speculative pur- poses is lightly taxed, but ifa man builds on it, improves it, erects beautiful and use ful houses on it, the tax collector comes around sure, to demand a heavy tribute fou: every improvem nt made, for every inch and foot of any userul structure erected Tne result is a discouragement of improve- ments and a checking of building. Now, is discouraging improvements so goud « thing that we should so strenuously strive for it ? Aad if so, good for whom? It may be a good thing forga rich landlo d, by leaving tevements scarce aud rents high, but fur the idle carpenter and por 'easnt it is clearly a bid thing -a very bid thing. S ngle taxers demand a tax Ou land values, leav- ing industry free, snd the inevitable resuli would be increased demand fur producis, higher wages and lover rents. That there
13 a Jand question is now sindubitable, and |
it must be settled sooner or later.
The landlords of the Highlands of Scot- land compelled my grandfather, with many others, to get off that part of the earth a good many years »g», and he fund a refuge en P. E Island. Your Charlottetown of to-day was then a village There were hardly any roads and few settlers on the Island. Ia short, most of the Island was a wilderness, Inthe heart of this wilder- ness, where a white man probably had
| never been before, he selected a site and pitched his tent ; or, if he didn’t pitch a tent he built a log hut. Before doing this, however, he had to pay for a lease from somebody allowing him to work the land, which, probably, no white man had ever seen beture. I am not altogether sure, but I think that he was not compelled to take out a lease fur the privilege of living—pos- sibly he may have carried such a lease from the Highlands. Being sturdy and brawny of arm he did Considerable clearing in the forest the first year, and the wheat and potato crop was such as he had never seen. The virgin soil blossomed as a rose and yielded precious fruit with surprising richness, so that grandfather felt cheerful and hopeful of bringing his family through the winter. But there was the rent to be 'psid, and having invested #ll the coin in |his possession in seed he had none with ' which to liquidate the rent. He must sell his products. Thank hesven, potatues and | wheat and vats had sv wonderfully multi- ‘plied. The few traders on the Island also knew how good the harvest had been among the settlers, and petatoes, wheat and oats being plenty, prices went down
Grandfather carried on his back enough of the produce to the nearest market to satisfy the demand of the agent :«f th
landlord. Lady Fanuing, I think, was his landlerd’s, or, rather, his landlady’s name. Grandfather f und, incredible as it m»y seem, that, after squaring everything uy, the plentiful harvest had been «f no value to him, low prices compelling him to make more trips to the trater with produce on his back than he would have done were ‘he harvest scanty and the prices high. He was left with a bare subnatence. And by the improvements he made, the clearings he had done, the better house he bu It, the land became more valusble and the rent was incressed. Hard times can, and tne resuit wasa mortgage; und wherher times were hard or good, whether grandfa her was well or sick, the mortgage went on «c- cumuiating interest and securing money for the mortgagee. When the »'d man at jJast went inthe way of all f-sh, farther took hold of the farm, and by almost sup -r- human effort paid the mortgsge. But the landiord was as clamorous as ever for his rent. And when father went ou that long j -urney from whence n» traveller returns, my brother tovk the helm, and still the rent went on—this tribute paid to the heirs f a woman in England who never saw the land, never saw the Island, and probably knew as much about its inhabitants as | knw about the Hottentuts. And aithough st last the Goverument b»ught out: the landlords by cold cash, I am not sure whether all the tenants have paid in their ast tribute or not; but I do know thar if
on-setters, Great Layers, they have, it has entailed suff-ring. The
ex, erience of my grandfather is the experi snce of many on the Island. Aad how tame this women to own the land = Prub- bly the King suid it to her for a trifl:, or, maybe, a witty remark; and he acquired it by “divine right” And those lecherous kings, of 22-calibre or less, received this
v ne right ty some metaphysic.] argui: g
veh Gefies reasvaing; and as years go on the brutal i: j.1s'ice of it seems to me more and more pri jacunced
single taxers ask ‘‘to whom rightfully loes this soil belong? Who are entitled to
8 use end to all the benefits that flow from
tsuse? Has or hasnot the child born on the Island a right to live? No one could contend that any human law could make it ight to drown babies. Thenif human beings have a righ’ to live, then mo one can have a better righs to live than any other, and i' follows that they must all cis the same equal right to the land; they must all have he same equal rights to the elements which vature has provided for sustaining life—to air, water and land. To deny the equ:l rght to the elements necessary to the main- aining of life is to deny the equal right to ‘ife; and as no law or custom or agre ment ‘an justify the denial of the equal right to ife, so no law, or custom, or agreement can jnstify the denial of the equal right to land One generation cannot stipulate away the ‘ights of another generation. How can you just'y bargain the rights of a child yet un- corn! No one can bargain away what is not his; no one c#n stipulate away the rights of another. And ifthe new born infant haa an equal right to life, then it has an equal right ‘o land. To illustate how private ownershi in land ensiaves the people, I quote the ‘ollowing from the pen of W. L. Crossman, formerly of Summerside, now a resident of chis state, and an indefatigable writer and worker for single tax principies : —
** The solution of the labor problem lies in the abolition of private property in land. Labor and capital applied te land, ur the raw materia's drawn from land, produces all vealth. Place a number of men on « fairly fertile island fiom which there is no escape ‘tive the ownership of the island to one man, lo that case the rest of the inhabitants must consent to work for the wages the land owner is willing to pay, which will only be enough on which to exist. Now, if only part of the island was owned by one man, and the balance wa; free to those who wis: ed to use it, none of the men would work for leas than ‘hey ‘ould make by woiking for themselves on th- f ee portion of the island In the first in- stance it would not make much difference whether the owner of the isiand owned the mea or whether he owned the land on vhich and from which they must d-rive a liviag In both c-ses they will only make a bare living.”
Single taxers are positive that their system wil solve the labor problem ; but for my own pit Iam not by any means sure that this great problem is to be solved by simply shif ing our tax burdens. In some fatare let'er | will endeavor to show that there are more factors which g> to ensiave maa than private ownership in land

Horse Notes.
In 1873, Messrs. S J. Pomroy and Warren Page, of ‘‘ompton, P. Q, went to Orange County, New York. to buy a couple of Ham- bletonian stallions. Edward Everett was at this time most popular, recently sold to Mr. Bonner for $20,000, and his get showing suca speed, that these gentlemen turned their at- tention to his colts, and finally purchased a bay, three years old, by Eiward Everett. 81, dam by Bay Richmond, Jr., for $1.591. The owner, Mr. Dubois, baving repeatedly refus- ed $1,500, and having said he would never sell the colt for that money, they had to make it and pay him one dollar more. They also were off-red the horse Florida at $5,000, but instead bought a brown horse by Edward Everett. —Exchange.
