In Norfolk to-day Sheriff Baker this af-
ternoon arrested two colored boys on the
cannon ball train when 1t arrived In
Suffolk. They gave their names as Paul
Owen and Percy JoAnson, and live in
Norfolk on Nebraska street. They are
apparently about thirteen and nine years
old. respectively.
a few minutes prior to the trains ar
rival Mr.. w. b. Hawkins. agent of the
Norfolk and Western. received a tele-
gram from Norfolk employee of that
corporation. stating that the thieves
were on the train, and requesting that
an officer be summoned. The Sheriff got
the message just IN time to meet train
on which the alleged pickpockets were
pointed out by Captain Grady, conductor.
The boys protested against arrest and
one of them cried piteously. He said he
was on his way to Petersburg to attend
his fathers funeral. His mother had
sent him the price of ticket from that
city. They were searched, and John
son was found TO have on his person
sS.25, while Owen had only so cents.
The two young criminals were ordered
taken to jail. where they will be held till
sent for by the Norfolk authorities. The
money will be sent to the owner.

liberty andthe pursuit0 proclaim
ediuthc Declaration nofIndependence, of proves
this aud more. That word inalienabie con-
tuins within itself o whole system OF
political ethics. 1t means, as our fathers
Understood 1t, that human law can neither
create nor abolish human rights. 1t may
confer special powers or privileges
properly, too, within certain limits. as in
case of officials-but law cannot make
right wrong, nor wrong right. Even our
old conservative Blackstone insists upon
this. The man who denies any natural
basis for The distinction between right anG
wrong, upon the ground that 1t is wholly
a matter of education, custom or heredity,
assumes precisely the same position OF the
one who would deny a natural basis for
the distinction between music and noise.
Cultivation Is equally effective In both
cases, but nature, with her primitive liz
stincts, is back OF all.
JUSTICE AND CIVIL LIBERTY.
The basty reader ofthe single tax column,
II he has had the patience to follow us thus
far, may wish TO know what all this has
TO do with the single tax. To tile old single
taxer no application is needed, but for
The casual reader who has not yet OBJ
served that the single tax involves both
a system of political ethics aud a system
OF political economy, q few more words
may be needful.
To the single taxer Justice and civil
liberty are coeSistent, and complementary
ideas of the same thing. Barring consdera-
tions OF crime, one does not receive justice
while denied the freedom enjoyed by his
fellow-citizens. Neither can be be as free
as others while oppressed by injustice.
Therefore. justice and civil liberty are In.
separately united. Both are deducible from
the equal right of men to live.
Now, If one mans right to live is equal to
that of aDothcr. 1t Is contradiction of
ideas to suppose that the one should pay
the other a pnce for the enjoyment of that
right
Land is essential to human life, and il IL
be conceded that men have an equal right
to life. contradiction of ideas is involved
In denying to any portion of them the
equal right to the use of land as the natural
source and means OF maintaining life.
But, as already iDtimated, man should
not be compelled by law TO pay a price for
that to which he Is entitled without the
payment. Therefore, the legal necessity
OF expeDding the half of ones life In acGuir-
ing the means to purchase from another the
bare land requisite for a home and bt,si-
ness, is an injustice. 1t is against this In
Justice, this denial of equal freedom, that
the singie-taxer especially protests. But,
with the exception of public roads, streets
and the like, where the eQunl right involves
use in common. singie-taxers would offer
Dofmpedimentt to the use ofland in severalty
as 1t is now used. Indeed, they would
protest against the restriction of freedom
Involved in the law that would make CON-
pulsory the use of land In common for
ordinary purposes. W.D. B.
