to-day continued the hearing IN the case OF the

Henry Georges Labor Views.

THE CONFLICT BETWEEN LABOR AND MONOPOLY.
NEW YORK, August 22-Henry George was the
first witness examined to-day by the Senate SUBJ
committee on labor and education. In answer to
10 the committee on the subject OF labor, Mr.
George replied that facts could better be obtained
from the working men themselves. There was
one general fact, however, that feeling OF ex-
classes. Their condition is not improving with
the increased prosperity OF the country.
There Is, In his opinion, direct conflict between
laoOr and capital, but between labor and monop-
o!y. Ine wages In each employment are governed
ny certain circumstances. but they must all de-
pend on the wages obtained in the most produce
tive Industry In the country, and here this indus
try is agriculture. Wages are higher in new
countries because The soil has not passed so largely
into private hands, AMI wages will not sink on an
average below what a man can get by
applying his labor to the soil There is no such
thing, he said, AS general overprOduction although
there may be special Overproduction. The secret
is that there Is an under production In something
else, and the laborer cannot obtain the work and
thus get the means OF pay ng for articles he needs
This state OF things arises from the difficulty In
obtaining access to the natural resources OF the
Land, which, as countries become more thickly set
tied. becomes the subject OF a land monopoly.
Vast tracts Of land in the west are coming to be
owned by Il few private individuals, who obtain It
AT small cost and hold it. The homestead laws,
which aim at giving every man a home,
opposite effect The telegraph business should be
under the control OF the government 1t could be
managed much more cheaply and 1t would to a
great extent supersede the postal service All
benefit the public. The Associated Press, In con-
nection with the Western Union company, had
been the means Of defeating the recent strike by
lhnuencing inc public press TO take a stand
labor now gets its fair share OF their Joint pro-
duct, the great portion going to the land owners.
