Another View.
or Of The Times.


sir.-The Times, in recent issue, said:
Class legislation confers its benefits on
the few at the expense Of the many.
But suppose it possible to hedge about
The entire ramification of business with
laws TO help trade"
Why not abolish all restrictions TO
trade? Why hedge II about at all? Why
not permit production and exchange to
follow It's natural course without any re-
striction? ibis would necessitate the
abolition Of all taxes on the products
and processes OF industry as well as those
upon the exchange OF products. All our
present taxes should be abolished. except
the tax on land values. and II should be
increased until the full rental value OF
land IS taken for government purposes.
This would equalize the rights OF all men
TO the bounties OF nature. make labor
plentiful at natural wages, I. e., the
fun product OF labor. abolish monopoly
and unfet,er trade and commerce.
