the University of Florida eleven and

An Example For Us.

The British budget this year pro-
vides for the taxing Of the unearned
increment of the value of land to
the extent of one-fifth of that in
crement. In this the principle Of
Henry Georges land tax doctrine has
been adopted in part. OF course the
great land owners and nobility OF
England make loud lamentation over
it and doubtless think that the coun-
try is going to the dogs.
Yet they have but themselves to
blame for the tax. In countries
like England where the amount OF
land is limited and the population
dense the large areas of land devof-
ed to great parks and demainlng
unimproved work great injury and
is largely responsible for the desti-
tuition of great masses of the peo-
pie. If this land were put under
cultivation employment would be
found for many thousands and Eng
land would not be SO dependent upon
other countries for it's food supply.
But the land lies idle and the
wealthy landowners who see the val
ue of that land increase through no
action of their own have paid but
little taxes upon it while other peo-
pie have had to bear the burden AS
an instance there is the great park
around Cardiff castle. 1t is situated
right in the heart of the city, and is
rated at only $4,000 a year while
a tailor's shop 20 yards away is rated
at s4,75O
The British government proposes
to at least partially remedy such an
abuse and though the landowners
are cursing the government for it
the aation has good reason to re-
joice. The condition that England
is remedying exists in many Ameri-
can cities and towns In all of them
nearly rich people own valuable lots
that they will neither improve or
sell. They pay little or no tax on
these valuable lots. England meets
this condition by heavily taxing these
vacant places which will be done in
this country sooner or later. Eng
land taxes all alike. Just now she
is after her rich tax dodgers with
a sharp stick.

Fulfilling of q Prophecy.

A few days prior to the nationa!
election last November the Louisville
Courier-Journal printed the follow
ing editorial: Flying the, flag of
Roosevelt the Republican leaders
have made their peace with the sys-
tenn. From Rockefeller to Carnegie,
from Hartman to Corey, every
chieftain of wealth and predatory
wealth, the honest too often making
common cause with the dishonest,
is we'll content with Taft and Sher-
man. They foretoken and imply the
old order of special privilege to the
few, impositions of every sort to the
many; high finance rampant; higher
tariff, revised by its friends ram
pant; the end of Rooseveltism and
agitation for the good of business
business only organized capital and
licensed monopoly; the same old
story, the same old song, the same
old crowd slicked over with goose
grease from the Roosevelt larder, but
meaning four years more OF the ras-
caldom which Roosevelt has unmaks-
ed but not downed; which Roosevlt
has exposed, but left intact; which,
N spite of Roosevelt and all his
works, stands today as impudent and
as defiant as ever it stood, gray
wolf lording it over the senate, a
gray wolf lording it over the house,
and two gray wolves, Sherman and
Sheldon, Sunny Jim and Black
George giving tone and effect to
the ticket. Should any thoughtful
Democrat, should any patriotic
American, should any honest man,
1..,n OF his duty before such a lay
out?" For fulfillment of the above
prophecy, made by Henry Waiter
son, one has only to read the tariff
debates in Congress, and they Will
soon see that the Republican party
still believes in the doctrine of
special privileges to the few and
impositions of every sort on the
many" How long, oh, how long,
will the American people allow
themselves robbed by the agents Of
the thieves?

prove that work is one Of the very
best things for them in that it stim-

In like manner work is also OF inl

A certain authority says that the
man who does not provide for his
family is worse than an infidel.
The same may with equal truth be
said of the man who does not stand
by his own town To speak dispar-
agingly of ones town, to point out
it's shortcomings and be silent as to
dts merits, to trade elsewhere and
care not if the home merchants
starve, to complain OF the men in
office and do nothing to help put
good men in-all this is unpatriot-
ic and is the same in character if
not in degree with the action of men
who constantly praise other coun-
tries at the expense Of their own.

1t is said that the population of
the new town OF MesSina in Italy is
likely to suffer an outbreak of dis
ease because Of the utter neglect Of
sanitation. If such does occur the
survivors will probably say it was
the will of God and the workings
of mysterious providence. This
fashion of throwing the response
bility on the Almighty is not un-
known in this country. Many FAM
lilies have dirty cellars and premises
that invite sickness, and when it
does come and some of the family
die they wonder why it happened
and begin to question the goodness
of the Supreme Being.
