On Henry Georges Theories In His Pastoral
Letter TO tho Churches,


Letter to tho Churches,
NEW YoRK, Nov. 2l.-Archbishop Cor
rigan, in his pastoral letter read In all the
churches OF this diocese to-day, has this to
say IN regard to Henry Georges land theo'
rles;
Undoubtedly God made the earth for the
use oil all mankind but whether tho pos
session thereof was to qe in common or by
individual ownership, was left for reason
to determine. Such determination, judg'
ing from thu facts Of history, tho sanction
Of law from the teaching Of the wlsest and
the actions OF tho best and braYest Of nan,
kind, has been, and is, that man can, by
lawful acts, become possessed Of the right
OF ownership In property, and not merely
10 its use. The reason 10 because o man
is strictly entitled to that Of which he Is
the producing cause, to the improvement
he bllnga about in 1t, and the enjoyment
OF both.
But it is clear that In farm, for In.
stance, which one has, by patient toll,
improved in value; in u block Of marble,
out OF which one has Ghlselad q perfect
statue, he cannot fully enjoy the improve,
ment ho hss caused unless hG has also the
right to own the Of lect thus improved,
Hs has a strict right-and evil are the
Laws and systems which ignore it-either
to ownership and enjoyment or to a full
compensation for the improvement which
Ia his. To strive TO base an argument
against ownership IN land by reasoning on
the universal distribution Of air and light
Is only q freak Of imagination.
Once deny the right Of owHenhip and
you SOW the seed OF stsgnGtiop 10 human
enterprise. Who would burrow the earth
to drag forth its buried treasures, II the
very mine hO was working were at ths
mercy OF the pasaer-by whom the riches
might attraCt2 Who would watch with
eagerness ths season when 70 suT and
to reap, and to gather the harvest, which
il the very fruit Of his laborB, II he Ia told
that those who stand by tho waysiIe idle
are equally entitled to Us epiryQeHt.
True, indeed, In many pSihihl instSrUeS
the rights of the toiler arc trampled upon,
and the fruits Of his labor snatChed from
his grasp. True, this Is done too IRE.
quOntly with the concurrence, or at least
tue cOnnivanCe, OF the law. This is the
evil that needs redress. but such redress
can never be brought about by denying a
fundamental right or by perpetEaaDg q
radical wroDg,

The legislature Of Kentucky, OF
at leasta majority of the members
thereof, are not in favor OF presery-
ing the fish in the waters Of this
State. They say by vote repeal
ing the Fish Law that you may
drag a seine, set a net OF a trap and
take cut all the fish you may catch
therein. They had sense or shame
enough to say that you must not
put in fish berries or dynamite,
but any other method of fishing is
legal. If the Senate has not sense
enough to stay the repeal it's good
by &c decent fishing, We are not
much Of fisherman, but we object
to wholesale slaughter. A repeal
of tho game law may be looked for
next.

The Court Of Claims of Lawrence
County held a session last Monday
for receiving and acting upon the
delinquent liss and electing poor
house physician. For soma rca-
son best known to the Court this
latter important matter was post
poned. The writer o! these lines
is not penning them in the interest
OF himself or any other physician.
and therefore feels at liberty to
criticize this unnecessary delay.
The uhfortunates confded to the
care ofthe Keeper Of the comfy
poor house need medical attention.
The mere fact of being inmtaes of
such an institution is prima facie
evidence Of infrmity and to neglect
to provide for their infrmities is
criminal. Because of previous
niegardliness on part Of the Court
of Claims, in cutting down bills
presented for pauper service, and
entirely rejecting others, the repu-
table phyei cians Of this county are
not rushing with frantic eagerness
to tie relief Of sick paupers. An
accident, for instance, requiring
skillful surgical assistance, might
cause much suffering to the unfor-
tunate before proper aid could be
obtained. Should IN epidemic,
small pox, for instance break out
in the poor house, who is there to
advise as to nSanagemen. and at
tend to the sick? A physician who
amputates leg, puts in bill for
fifteen dollars and realizes three dol
lars on his allowance, is not going
to risk his life in attending a man
with small pox, merely Because
some justice ofthe peace says he
win see TO his being paid.
Ifthe Court win contract With a
reputable physician, at a living
price, to attend to lhecounty poor
and this trouble Win be avoided,
Saeh a physician can be obtained
on such terms, and the authoritief
should lose no time.iit obtainiug'
such man.
