Who owns the land in the United
States2 Wing, the citizens do, or should
would be the natural reply. But un.
fortunately it is isat altogether so Some
of the best lands in this country are
owned by alien landlords. Nearly 49,
100000 acres of land are owned by men
who owe allegiance to other govern
ments. To be exact, there are 2l ,24l 900
acres of land under the direct control
and management of thirty foreign indi-
viduals or companies. There are 2,72O,
2S3 acres of land in Massachusetts, SO
that the men living IN other countries
and owing allegiance to other powers
own land enough to make about ten
States like Massachusetts,, more than
the whole OF New England, more lands
thaa some governments own to support
a King. The largest amount of land
owned by any one man or corporation
is called the Holland Land Company.

Hon. W. L. Wilson is contributing
articles to the Baltimore Sun, under
the above caption. We have thus far
made no editorial mention of these
writings, preferring first to read num-
ber, that we might determine whether
Mr.. Wilson were one of the "single
idea" political economists who are un-
happily too numerous and too ready to
sign long articles that view broad sub
jects from single narrow standpoint
and whose teachings are practically
worthless on account Of tins bigotry,
bias and partisan political view. We
have read the Sun articles with unusu.
al pleasure: first. because we recognize
eminent ability and evidence Of deep
and careful inquiry on the part of the
author; again, because of the broad and
liberal grounds he has occupied in the
formulating of his propositions.
We find concession where the facts of
history demands it; demonstration in
the place of assertion no disposition to
take advantage Of current events that
really prove nothing, but which are
used by demagogues to prove whatever
proposition they MAY be debating; cold,
careful, logical theses, devoid of the
unworthy and melo dramatic situations
that authors aiming solely for partisan
political effect indulge in. The Suns
articles are rare bits of political econo-
my that are especially palatable in
these days of superficial thinking.

More AIIlercnls.

We are gratllied to be able to quote
from two of our ablest contemporaries,
sentiments SO favorable to High License
as the following ia ken from the DEM
ocratic Adyocate Of Westminster and the
Mail of Hagerstown.
The Aduocate says:
According to the Philadelphia Led
ger, the faithful administration Of the
Brooks High License Law in that city
has resulted in a wonderful decrease in
drunkenness, crime and pauperism, as
we'll as adding largely to the public rev.
enue. The commitments to the county
prison from June, 1883, to May, 1889,
inclusive, were nearly 10000 less than
during the corresponding period of the
previous year the Sunday laws were
so we'll observed that the commitments
for offences on those days were reduced
from 209l in 1886 81 to 1868 in 1887.
So and 38l in lSSS-89. The commit
ments of women were similarly reduc-
ed from 2Sl to 1873 and then to Al
Other causes may have been at work,
says the Ledger, but there can hardly
be any question that the main cause of
this remarkable improvement was the
reform III the methods of conducting
the liquor business brought about by
a good administration of the Brooks law.
High license is taking a hold upon
public &c IA timent in Maryland, and the
next Legislature will most likely pass a
law similar to that Of Pennsylvania

pie will drink and people wall sell, and
where prohibition is attempted the
spirit of defiance is arous ed. Let high
license, with proper restraints and safe
guards, be tried in Maryland.
The statistics taken from the Ledger
is one Of the main, if not the strongest
arguments in favor Of this law. What
is needed is a regulation of the liquor
cratic that will lessen crime: to ask to
cxtermlpate the evil is asking too much
and like every other, over sanguiue at
tempt, invariably fails.
The MaW says
There seems to be a general re- ec-
tion of prohibition as means OF restrain.
ing intcmperance. But that does not
signify that all efforts in this direction
should cease.
Indeed thoughtful men are address.
ing themselves with greater earnestness
than ever to the difficult problem, and
in our opinion, with better prospect ol
success than ever before. The idea
that all drinking can be prevented by
legislation is dream which has vanish.
ed upon awakening. What is now aimed
at is to control more perfectly the liq-
uor traffic, to keep it in fewer and bet
