The writer OF the following evidently had
a Sanders and Northern Pacific Railroad
corporation in view when he penned it:
Wealth. strictly speaking, is the product OF
human labor, and should never be con-
founded in the mind with land, the natural
agency from which labor extracts wealth.
Land is the natural agency from which
flows all wealth and without land labor is
unable to produce anything, nay, could not
exist moment. The man who monopol-
izes-owns-land which he does not use
but which others must use, can take such
portion as he chooses for the use OF it. This
legal usurpation is the fountain-head OF in
Justice. 1t takes from man his natural
means of sustenance; deprives labor of it's
Just reward; divides mankind into classes,
and compels the many, who have nothing.
to toll for the few who, by sanction OF u.s.
urping law, have stolen all. When these
facts are appreciated by the worlds toilers
landlordism will go and with it almost
every other species OF monopoly.-Toledo
