what belongs to somebody else is not in fact, an
idea which has novelty to recommend it. Mr.
George would content himself with taking land.
lie is one of those men of whom Theodore Parker
asked. L" Can a man jump half way down Niagara r
Mr.. Chamberlain seems TO think, as Mr. George
thinks, that feat quite practicable. The landlords
are to be pundered. Other property owners are to
be spared.
1t is in the tmelness of his appearance therefore,
that Mr. George is mainly happy. He has rhetoric,
passion keen sympathy with the poor and so easily
got hearing from those already disposed TO listen
But he is not the first and will not be the last OF
acrarian agitators He will do some mischief, for
the time is ripe for reckless appeals TO cupdlty.
One whole section of the kingdom has been de-
bauched. 1t is likely enough that the shameless
doctrines adopted in Ireland may be adopted, in
part in England. Sully's saying is being forever
quoted-that as for the populace II is never from
passion for attack that it rebels, but from I'M
patience of suffering. Mr.. Lecky, whose judgment
is cool observes with unanswerabe force that
Sully's remark 50 far as il was true, was true OF
state of society in which facilities for organized ag-
taton did not exist in the sense they exist to-day
Nothing is easier now, thanks to the press and the
lecture platform and the stump, than topersuade
contented people that they are suffering from in
tolerabe grievances. That is the mission on which
Mr.. Henry George is engaged. His fluent pen, his
loud volubity, his plausible ignorance, and the
confidence begotten of ignorance, insure him at
tention But is longer possible TO say that the
presumption is in favor of those who complain when
the complaints are put into their mouths and when
the remedy proposed for them is TO put their hands
in other peoples pockets. G. VS..
