ABOUT HENRY GEORGE.

1t is with no wish to say one word
to detract from the fair name and
fame Henry George made for himself,
that call attention TO what follows;
In the public mind Mr.. George is
believed to have been the originator of
the single or land tax theory, which
he has advocated so long, while. as
matter of fact. the conception and first
propagation of the idea, in modern
times at least, was the work of an
Englishman who fiourished In the lat
ter part of the last and the early
part of the present century. He
was at one time wealthy, but lost his
fortune in speculative farming in Scot
land. Being of n contemplatiye and
philosophic mind as well as of n most
philanthropic nature, he took up the
study of social conditions and began
n work entitled, 1.-THE Science of Poll
tics" This work he divided into two
parts. The first part is before me. Its
title Is, The Theory of Human Pro-
gression." What the second part was
named or whether it was ever pub
lished, l do not know. But the first
part contains many of the ideas that
MIR. George has presented in so many
ways. This earlier writer aims all
along to show that progress Is impossi-
mands that the earth be forever taken
out of the category of private property
and made the property of mankind;
that the nation alone shall own the
land covered by 1t. and the people shall
use 1t as they desire 1t under rent
which shall go to the nation and form
its treasury fund for public expense
account.
once asked Mr.. George II he was
not familiar with this other work and
he frankly told me that he had made
a study of 1t. 1t is remarkably
interesting volume and the name of
Its author was Patrick Dove. The full
title page of the work is, The Theory
of Human Progression and Natural
Probability of Reign of Justice
The volume was first published in Lon
don and is dedicated by the author to
Victor Cousin, a once very eminent
| French professor of philosophy at
Paris. That Mr.. George drank deer
from this wonderful spring l am sure
That he also greatly elaborated ideas
borrowed from that source am
equally sure.
Something should be added to this
| statement for the reason that some
| readers will accuse Henry George OF
| fraud.
do not think that Mr. George was
| in any instance guilty Of plagiarism
| that is, of stealing for his own benefit
another mans thoughts. but am com
| PEELED to admit that his use of Patricl
| Doves ideas. without acknowledgment
| in any publication or in any public adj
dress, is. to say the least. ungratefu
| and unworthy of man OF such CRANE
natural ability as that of Henry
| George.
Patric Dove was the originator o.
sthe single or land tax theory anC
Henry George was his copylst anC
| elaborateur. But Mr. Dove was onl,
sublime theorlst. His impractical
bility lost him a fortune. Henr,
George was a practical man and mad,
great use of Mr.. Doves theories. lie
it rest at this-No man Is perfect.

IN THE EAST.

The cause OF silver draws substan-
tial comfort from Kentucky, for
though silver was not, in the usual
sense, an issue there. the known
friends of the white metal have tri-
umphed over its avowed enemies. In
Ohio the result is in doubt, both sides
claiming the Legislature, though Bush
nell, Republican, seems certainly 10
have been elected governor In Iowa
usually a Republican stronghold, the
Democrats made great gains, another
circumstance which pleases the
friends of free coinage.
Notwithstanding all that has been
said about silver having been an issue
in the Greater New York contest, 1t
was not, as matter Of fact, an ele-
ment in the fight there. Tammany
fought for victory on old time
lines and by its traditional meth
DDS, refusing to take either
position as to silver. and waS sue
cessful. If the Democracy Of Greater
New York will stand with the party
throughout the nation. Tammany's
success this fall will be beneficial to
the cause Of free silver, otherwise It
will not be; and as Tammany has re-
fused TO express itself on this point,
its future action respecting it is a
matter OF doubt.
But that the success of this power
full organization in the consolidated
metropolis, which now numbers about
three and half million population,
Is n misfortune to the cause of good
morals, there can be no doubt Such an
organization may be Justly judged by
It's. leaders, and Tammany has been
| led by bad men for many years, John
Morrlssey, who was long Mt its head,wt
| an ex-prlze fighter and an associate of
| the worst elements of society. Tweed
| was one of the greatest thieves That
ever lived, but he ruled Tammany for
n long time. Kelly, Tweed's success
| sor, was n man IKE Morrissey,an eN-
prize fighter and an outgrowth of evil
elements generally
Richard Croker, the present head OF
the great machine, was born In Ire
land. but In early childhood became q
street gamin in New York. As he
grew older he readily drifted into
ward politics. BY process which was
naturnl but seems remarkable, he
gradually rose to his present position
OF prestige and power. Under Tam
mnny's rule, vice, corruption and i'm
morality may be expected to flourish
for 1t is a corrupt organization.
ON the whole. the friends OF free
silver, find in the elections in the Easl
far more ground for encouragement
than reason for disappointment.
