ly to the laborer and the industrial
life of the Pacific Coast. and later
to the whole of the United States.

A number of years ago a New
York banker died and left block
of land to a nephew in a distant
city. The young man. except for
arranging for the payment of taxes,
paid no attention to the property.
A couple of months ago the owner
received what he considered. very
fine offer for the land. He wrote.
advising his New York lawyers to
sell. The firm investigated and dis
covered that the offer was lust
about one-fifth what the property
was worth. This Intelligence
brought the owner upon the scene
to view his New York holding for
the first time in his life. He found
that his uncle's bequest had grown
into a fortune. AS result of the
visit one-half Of the land was sold
for enough to build a handsome
building on the other half. It would
be interesting to know whose labor
built the structure. The young man
mad done nothing. The building
did not cost him single effort, and
yet 1t represented thousands of
hours of toll. Who was it, any,
way that paid for that building in
labor values? Land plus time does
not mean building. Land plus
labor may. Whose labor was It
that made the structure possible?
Did a whole community toll for
the absent heir?-Johnstown Demo-

1t is also stated that the mayor
of Victoria, British Columbia, had
corralled' some 1900 of these un-
desirable immigrants and refused
them permission to go up town, and
what makes the situation more
alarming is the knowledge that the
steamship companies have already
contracted to bring some two oor
three thousand more Hindoos to
