SHOULD Mr.. Gladstone visit America he will
receive welcome such as no royal parsonage
ever receiyed.-NtU York JOmnA
Undoubtedly there would be tremen-
dous uprising of the brains and character
of America to welcome Gladstone II he
should favor us with visit. On the other
band, 1t is undeniable that there are good
many thousand persons in New York, aud
come hundreds In Washington, who would
give him the cold shoulder, but would run
their legs off to get sight of even the mean
est sprig of royalty that ever grew In
Europe. There are not a few Americans
who "dearly love lord" and actually
adore "a royal parsonage"

universal and irreversible law does not
fall on the foreign labor and capital, while
internal taxes fall almost wholly, II tnd'-
rectly, upon our worklngmen and pro-
ducers; the difference between the two
taxes being that tAe internal taxes burden
our producers most heavily In favor OF
foreign producers, while the tariff taxes
burden foreign producers most heavily In
favor Of our own.
A little cool reflection ought TO teach Mr..
George that as all wealth, value, and taxes
are productions the further taxes are put
from the land, labor, and capital engaged in
home production, the greater general home
prosperity, mere consumers, drones, and
spectators being out Of all consideration
in the matter. And 1t happens, too, that
terifT is, to a large degree, self-regulating
as q source Of reyenue-its revenues Ger
tainly decreasing as 1t becomes excessive
or prohibitive; while It is equally certain
that tariff for revenue has not leg to
stand on, even from a free trade view, save
as II affords us due protection.
National Republican. (Washington City (D.C.)) 1872-1888, 1886-06-30

After all, however, even Mr.. Georges
sophistrles in behalf Of free trade and a sole
tax on land, If accepted as true, do not stop
at the land as their true subject. No They
go to the man himself, and teach really
that all revenue should be raised by an
equal capitation tax on all persons; all
privileges and acquisitions whatsoever be-
yond mere existence to be untaxed. Be-
sides, as heretofore shown, even II land
holding, possession, and use are TO be more
free and common, not particle Of advance
is made in that direction by q ground.rent
tax, payable to the state, and which, in
any event, would be as hard on labor
and poverty as on capital and wealth,
II not harder. If all taxation
should be put exclusively on any one
subject, that subject is certainly not land
nor labor, the two prime factors of produc-
tion. All the burdens of taxation, it is
true, fall largely on production, directly or
indirectly, but to place them on land or
labor is not merely to devour the fruits OF
the tree of prosperity, but to attack Its very
roots and their supplies. And as all In
ternal taxation IN large degree must inevlt.
ably come out OF the fruits of internal
labor, II is the behest OF common sense, as
well as OF Statesmanship, TO have as little
internal taxation as possible, aud to lay ex-
ternal or tariff taxes that viii not only
relieve and protect our home production,
but will come out OF foreign production. It
is said to be sure, that the tariff taxes fall
largely on our own people, especially upon
our laborers and workmen of all
kinds; but this is only true as to
the small amount Of these which by an
National Republican. (Washington City (D.C.)) 1872-1888, 1886-06-30

The engrossing Of the land is only one
the modes by which capital entrenches it.
self. In fact, II is really one OF the least
Objectionable of the many investments OF
capital. II the present real and fancied In
equalities Of opportunity and reward af
forded capital and labor are to be removed
or amellorated, II is not to be done by an
imposition, heavy and exclusive, upon the
prime source Of production, but by regu.
lation Of all the means and processes OF
speculation, as distinguished from produc-
tion, through some system Of equitable
distribution and Of restraint on accumula-
tion which shall apply to all things, all pur-
suits, and all men.
But having taken the great false step as to
land, Mr.. George 10 forced to take other
false steps; and he has now come out with
book in which he advocates free tvade
which goes even beyond the British kind
that is now so fashionable with Democratic
and other political dudes. or course, II all
taxes are to be put upon the land, every
imposition on anything else, domestic or
foreign, is mproper-although, as Mr..
George very curiously reaches his land-tax
scheme by arguing that the earth should be
as free and common as air and water, 1t is
difficult to understand why he does not
somehow include these two elements as
proper sources OF revenue Logically, in
deed, II land is to be freed by laying taxes on
1t, trade becomes the less free the less 1t is
taxed; but real logic, although he makes
large use Of its forms, is as little binding
on Mr.. George as republican forms OF gov
ernment are on Bourbonism. Yet, while
he is obliged to urge the abolition of taxes
on imports as one Of the many corollaries Of
his main proposition as to land, It is most
extraordinary spectacle to behold the apos-
tie Of labor and production (as he originally
announced himself) actually attempting
with one hand to place all public burdens
| on the soil--the home and field Of labor,
and the source OF all production-while
with the other hand he seeks to remove
every burden and restriction from that capt,
tai and that speculation which now at.
tack labor and It's fruits, or. rewards, at
every assailable point. 1t is true that he
wells himself and his attitude with much
ingenious sophistry, but with the sophlstry
once brushed aside, his position is precisely y
as described.

among these the mechanical drawings,
which are displayed in the hall near the en-

how such intricate machinery was possible
Of representation. More visitors than ever
