Taxation Instead Of Socialism.

Taxation Instead OF SOCIALISM,.
The taking for the use of the COM
munity Of that value Of privilege which
attaches to the possession of land,
would, wherever social development
has advanced beyond a certain stage.
yield revenues even larger than those
now raised by taxation, while there
would be an enormous reduction in
public expenses consequent, directly
and indirectly, upon the abolition of
the present modes Of taxation. Thus
would be provided q fund, increasing
steadily with social growth, that could
be applied to social purposes now neg
lected. And among the purposes which
will suggest themselves to the reader
by which the surplus income of the
community could be used to increase
the sum of human knowledge, the diff
fusion of elevating tastes, and the graf
ifcation of healthy desires, there is
none more worthy than that of MAX
ing honorable provision for those de-
prived of their natural protectors, or
through no fault of their own incapac-
itated for the struggle of life.-Henry

Significant Figures.

To the Editor of the Morning Journal
Your recent editorial on the cost of
strikes makes clear the point that la
boris proportion of the cost was as two
to one. This seems to prove that the
profits Of capital amount to only half
what is paid in wages. Now, as we
know from recent census figures that
labor gets only 10 per cent of its prod
uct, and we find from Cardinal Glib
bon's statements that capital gets but
half Of that's per cent.-the question
arises, Who gets the other IS per cent?
/ claim that in no other way can its
distribution be accounted for except in
it's absorption by taxation, monopolies
fostered by land owners
Reliable figures give the total tax
list, federal, state, ETC., as about ST.
600, 600, 600. The estimated amount 60
ing to landlords is 81. 500, 900, 600 Jun
earned) yearly.
The account. therefore, stands as fol-
lows: OF every $40 worth of wealth
produced by capital and labor con-
jointly, capitals share 80 cents, labor
gets 81. taxation absorbs So. 80, land
owners (for the bare land without i'm
prevements), So. 40.
Now. if we take taxation out of land
values is it not evident that maintain
ing their present ratio. and assuming
the present rate of taxation will con-
tinue, capital would get s2.57 and la
Dor S5.03? Does this statement not
show that the all-producers, capital
and labor, are being robbed of four
ffths Of their earnings? Is not this
sufficient to account for stagnant bust
mess and poverty, degradation and
crime among the masses who must toll
to live? What reform is more urgent
ly needed than a reform of u tax
laws, which will raise the wages of la
Dor and capital 400 per cent? 1t is only
justice we ask. Our tax laws are
founded on injustice.
