Destruction Of Land Values.

Philip G. Boulton, of Brooklyn,
wants to know if the exchange value of
unimproved land would entirely disap-
pear under the single tax. and gives
this example to illustrate his meaning:
Would piece of unimproved land that
to-day has a market value of $50, 900
have any market value il the single tax
were in operation.
II the single tax were in perfect ideal
operation, no; land would not have any
capitalized value. It would still have
an annual value, but the annual tax
payment required would be to penny
equal to the value of the annual adj
vantage. Therefore, there would be
nothing TO capitalize. Ideal perfection,
however, can not be expected. and il is
probable that valuable land in use
would always be worth somewhat moro
than the value of its improvements.
Land held out of use would not be,
however; for the tai, though far short
OF ideal perfection, would be high
enough to make it Improbable long to
hold the land out of use. 1t would soon
be put to use il exceptionally desira-

The senate of the United States is

At the present time there are forty
seven republicans, thirty-nine dem.
ocrats and two peoples party, The
terms of twenty-nine Of these expire
March 3, next, and two other vacan.
cics are to be filled. 1t is probable
that the most of these will be filled
by men of present political complex
ion, but the republicans are more
likely to lose than to gain in num-
bers. There is no indication that
any democrat will be succeeded by a
republican, but there is probability
that Hiscock of New York and Saw
yer of Wisconsin will be succeeded
| by a democrat. Ii it should result
thus the next senate would stand
forty.five republicans, forty.one
democrats, two peoples party. If
then the peoples party can elect
three members In republican seats
they can hold the balance of power
and thus compel the senate to give
|
them and their members just recog-
milton. The men whose seats can
be contested by the peoples party
are Davis of Minnesota, Sanders OF
Montana, Paddock of Nebraska, Per-
kins Of Kansas, Casey of North Da-
kota, Allen of Washington and War
rem of Wyoming. Out of these they
can certainly secure three. Then in
the south, Pasca of Florida and
