Progress in Massachusetts.

w. L. Crossman writing from Boston
says: On March 16, the Henry George
theory of taxation was described to the
legislation committee on taxation by
William Lloyd Garrison, who, with
many others, was petitioner for an
amendment of the laws, so that all
public revenue shall be collected from
land by single tax on its site value.
Mr.. Garrison presented considerable
testimony to show that the present
system of taxation is inequitable and
burdensome upon the poor, and at the
conclusion of a Enthusiastically clear
and eloquent speech asked that all
taxes on personal property be at once
rescinded and abolished.
To speall in support of his views, Mr..
Garrison introduced ex-senator Thomas
). Hastings, of Worcester, Mrs. Martha
NJ. Avery, of Boston; Hon. James II.
Morrow, of Adrian, Mich: James X.
Garrett, of Boston; DIR. Billings, OF Rock
land; Rev. John Greggson, of Worces-
ter; George N. Smith, of Wellesley,
Q. A. Lothrop. of Neponset; w. II. Nor
rill, of Cambridge. and f. M. White, OF
Boston. The last speaker read letters
from Louis Prang, of Boston, and 5. ID.
Howes, of Southboro, both of whom in
dorsed the single tax from the stand
point respectively of business man and
a farmer. DIR. Ira l.. Moore went before

Detassellug Corn.

The process of detasseling corn con-
sists in removing the upper portion OF
the stalk to which the spray of male or
pollen-bearing flowers is attached. Sew
cral experiments have shown that it in
creases the crop to remove the tassel
from fully one-half of the stalks before
the pollen is shed. The results of some
extensive tests made by the Nebraska
experiment station show the opposite
effect There was a uniformly lessened
yield upon the p,ats when one-half OF
the stalks were detasseled Similar re-
suits obtained when the tassels were
removed after the pollen had been ma
tured and scattered In view of these
results, it does not seem wise to inter
fere with nature for profits sake

Progress of the Movement.

The activity Of Congressman john
son has already excited emulation in
Congress. Among the members who
received letters asking their support for
Johnsons single tax bill for the District
of Columbia was Congressman Busey,
who, in reply to one of his correspond
ents, said that he believed in the essen
tial justice. of the single tax, but
thought it could not be fairly applied
to existing land titles. That is notion
of which he will soon be rid. Mean
time, however, he has introduced bill
(H. R., SSH, for applying the principle
of common ownership to all public
lands. This bill provides for grant
ing to the states and territories all
federal lands, except reservations and
land needed for public buildings, within
their respective borders, on condition,
among other things, that the states and
territories lease the same for cash
rentals, subject to revision at least once
every ten years. in which revision 1.-The
improvements made by the tenant shall
not he taken into account" Ten per
cent. of the annual rentals is to be PAID
into The federal treasury. The bill de-
clares further that all federal lands
shall henceforth be no longer subject 10
sale. or to entry, settlement or occupa'
ton. except on lease rs provided IN the
bill. What a magnificent country this
would be if such a law had been in forcs
during the past fifty years.

siOner says that land ana laDOr are tne
source of all wealth, and that there
are those who assert, not without
reason. that to deprive labor of free ac-
cess to land is to deprive the laborer of
the opportunity to employ himself"
Those who assert this, he proceeds, go
SO far as to say that "most, if not all,
of the inequalities in the distribution OF
labor's products is due to the enormous
power that the owners of the natural
opportunities. or the gifts of nature, as
they term the land, have over 1aborers
bv reason of their control over the very
sources of employment" He adds:
They say further that this equal right
may be effectually secured and made
practical by the substitution OF the
principle of possessory titles in place OF
the fee simple, and that under such a
system every man may have as much OF
| land as he can make the best use of, by
simply paying to society for the advan-
tages of superior location, tenure
which would divert to the public COT
fers enormous sums, that under the
present system goes to the enrichment
| of privileged individuals at the expense
| of the rights of all Others" The com
missioner then explains the law of rent,
| with clearness and accuracy, something
quite unique in labor Investigations
concluding that rent does not describe
the rewards or remuneration of capita
or labor, brit simply the price Of LAND
monopoly.
