The Ottawa free trader. [volume] (Ottawa, Ill.) 1843-1916, 1874-10-17

We are in receipt of the Word a
monthly journal of reform, published at
Princeton, Mass" It's formula of principles
must strike the common mind as somewhat
radical if not communistic, to emanate from
staid, conservative old Massachusetts. For
example:
The Word regards all claims TO property
not founded on a labor title, as morally void,
and asserts the free use of land to be the In
allenable privilege OF every human being
one having the right TO own or sell only MS
methods. but through liberty and reciprocity,
the Word seeks the extinction of interest,
rent, dividends, and profit, except as they re-
present work done; the abolition OF railway,
ielegraphic, banking, trades union, and other
corporations charging more than actual cost
for values furnished. and the reputation OF
all socalled debts, the principal whereof has
been paid in the form of interest.

An article in the Washington Cdroaicie, a
few days ago, advocating the claims of Gen
Sherman for the next presidency attracted a
good deal Of attention. The article was ably
written, reviewed the past record of Gen
Sherman, and demonstrated, at least to the
writer's satisfaction, his peculiar fitness,
above all others, for the presidency. The
moral force of the article, however, was de
cidedly weakened day or two afterwards on
the revelation Of the fact that its author was

several years ago there was IA case tried in the
Bureau Circuit Court we believe, founded on
the following facts, as we now remember
them. 1t was claimed that an eastern gen.
tleman sent to Mr.. Campbell money with
which to enter u section of land for him.
Campbell entered the land, it was claimed,
bat made the entry in the name of Alexander
Campbell. Money was sent from year TO
year to Campbell with which to pay the taxes,
and they were pai2, the eastern owner think
ing no evil, and believing his title clear"
until the day of his death. His heirs came
west to look at their land, but found that
Campbell claimed it as his own, and it was
only after a bitter contest in the courts that
hey have recovered it.
All that deem necessary to say about the
foregoing at this time is, that l new. had any
such law suit, as described in the foregoing
article, nor have ever had any law suit,
growing out of IA transaction relating to the
entry of lands or the payment of taxes there

elsewhere; nor lave | ever had law suit OF
