The new land taxes we're the
feature of the Lloyd George bulge
which has proved the opposition ant
discussion in the British Parliament,
but the fight in favor of them has
been won in the popular house
Whether the House of Lords viii

of the budget is a matter that is still
involved in doubt. There has beer
a stubborn resistance to the imposi

will be no tax.
According to the explanation given
by premier Asquith the taxes ''all OF
them are on the added future value.
realized Or realizable, that is given
to land by social causes" such, for
instance, as the growth of urban pop
ulation and industry, road and street
making. A small annual tax is to
be laid also on ~undeveloped lana
outside the limits of cities and towns
which the owners hold out of use for
speculative purposes. In addition
there is to be an "unearned incre-
ment" a equal to 20 per cen of the
total increment on land sold or trans
ferred, and another tax on mining
royalties.
in order to clear the way for the
imposition of these taxes the budget
provides for a valuation Of all lands
in the kingdom, the cost Of which
is to be paid by the government and
not the landlords as at the first pro-
posed. But this it seems failed to
mOllify the opponents of the land
who are now charged with fearing
an honest valuation lest the truth be
known in regard to their possessions
and their liabilities to taxation.
The cry has been raised that the
unearned increment tax is spoliation,
but attention has beer directed to the
fact that German municipalities are
already taxing it and the German
imperial government has announced
that in a few years it will also levy
such d tax. The British House OF

either enterprise or industry.
From all accounts the opposition
in Parliament to the taxes has dis
played SO much zeal in behalf of
the landed interests and corporations
that the leaders admit that the result
has been the alienation of the people
and a great strengthening of the sup
porters of the budget

"Toat Fair"

"Toat Fair"
just at this time the tariff
question is one of absorbing in
terest to every man, woman and
child in America. We do not
believe in absolute free trade.
nor do we believe in the high pro
tective policy of the radical
wing of the republican party.
The tariff should be so formed
as to fully protect American la
Dor against the pauper labor of
the old world, ..and should be for
revenue, but should be so made
as to equalize the price of i'm
ported goods so as to keep the
price equal, making the Ameri-
can and foreign goods on an
equal price list, the tariff to be
the difference between the price
of labor in America and the pau
per labor in the old world, that
is, if England can manufacture
a hat for one dollar, with their
cheap labor, that would cost to
manufacture in America under
our liberal scale of wage a high
er price, then make the tariff
cover the difference in the cost
of manufacture, always keep
ing in view the best interest of
American workmen, but if we,
in this country, canproduce the
same kind of goods as cheap as
can be produced in any foreign
country, why ask protection?
1t is an insult to American
labor to say that the American,
with all the advantage of raw
material, water power, the SUI
periority of our machinery, the
genious and inventive ability of
the American cannot compete
with any nation on earth. We
grow the cotton, hemp, flax,
sugar, tobacco and wool; our
hills and mountains are full of
coal, oil and precious metals,
our machinery is the pride of
the nation, why then should we
be everlastingly bowling for
protection for our laborers? It
is a notorious fact that the larger
amount of the tariff profits go
to the monopolist and trusts
and not to the men who toll.
| A tariff for revenue with in
cidental protection to American
labor is reasonable, but a pro-
Military Aldrich- Cannon bill is
only another link in the chain
of the trust legislation of this
country so detrimental to the
great mass of the American
people, and while pretending to
be laboring for our workmen,
they are increasing the poor
mans burden that they may in
crease the wealth of the few.
Why put tariff on lumber,
coal, especially on such articles
as we export? Why not levey
a duty on ice? Giveus an Amer
lean tariff, but not a tariff that
will enrich the few at the ex-
pense of the many. IN. Fl.
