lines the course Of these experiments
and sums up the results achieved in the
most important. His article is quite
comprehensive and his conclusions are
OF a nature to attract the earnest Rtten-
tion of every thinking man and to
awaken enthusiasm in the mind of the
student who has attempted the solution
Of many existing problems along the
lines Of state socialism, or ''new liberal
ism," as they term it in New Zealand.
In New, Zealand state activity has re.
suited rin the government assuming
many other functions besides that Of
mere governing. I he state controls rail-
roads, telegrsphs, telephones, mails,
roads, irrigation and other public works
which involve the management Of mat
ursl monopolies, and by reason Of it's su-
perior credit and resources has been able
to precede and lead in civilization with
these instead of following at q conaervs.
tive distance, as is the case wherever
these industries are in private hands.
Up to March Of 1893 the government OF
New Zealand had expended over 926,-
100000, or s130, 100000, on railroads and
other public works under the policy Of
clearing the way for civilization and i'm
migration. Some of the railroads it
built, others built by private parties it
purchased. In 1872, when the policy
went into effect, there were only sixty
Eve miles Of railroad in the colony. Last
year there were 1886 miles under gov
ernment control and only $50 miles still
owned and operated by private corpora
tions. In 1892 the earnings OF the
railroads were $5,9OO,OOO and the net
earnings, over all expenses, $2,249, ,15O.
Telegrsphs, mails and wsterworks have
likewise yielded encouraging profits, the
gross income from the two first named,
which are operated together, being
81, 1,498,925. Telephones, over which the
government but recently assumed con-
troll, paid into the treasury during the
same year $95,775, q good proportion Of
which was in excess Of fixed and opera
ting charges. And this, too, in a new
country, q colony far removed from older
civilization, small country, containing
altogether less than 100000 people!
Had the people Of New Zealand
stopped at this point, they would still
have led the world in the rational solu-
tion Of vexing social problems. But
they did not stop. The government has
assumed control Of native lands, opened
them up, and will either lease, rent or
sell outright to settler on easy terms
whatever ground he may require, or, If
he have no money, will advance him q
sufficient sum to make his first pay
msnts, and to begin his improvements.
The system of land tenure and taxation
is a modified application Of the princi-
pies sxpounded by Henry George. Most
Of the ground is leased in perpetuity or
rented out by the state at an annual
rate varying from to per cent. Of its
cash value. Land owned by individuals
is taxed at a low figure, providing it does
not exceed in value $25OOO. On all prop
erty over that amount in value, q special
