nal. died yesterday at the Hotel Belmont,
IN his efghty-second year. Some time ago
he suffered fall. in which his thigh was
fractured. and this injury ia thought TO have
been a contributing cause 70 HIS death,
which was due primarily TO old age.
Nh Dana was born at Utica, in this state.
on August 26, 1929. and was graduated In
1851 from Yale. IN which university his
brother. the late Professor James d. Dana.
for many years occupied the chair OF geol-
ogv. Mr. Dana practised law a Utica

New York City and purchased Hunts
Merchants Magazine" a monthly. which
six years later he made a weekly. and

Chronicle" which name 1t still retains
In its number OF August %. 1909. The
Chronicle published a sketch OF the life
of Mr.. Dana. it's founder. editor, publish
er and owner" on the occasion OF his etgh-
tieth birthday. which also nearly conceded
with the completion OF his hftieth year In
the publication business.
At the beginning OF his control OF
Hunts Magazine, the article nOteo- us
aster threatened from the warlike attitude
of the Northern and Southern states a
large number of the subscribers were South
ern men, and the outbreak of the war
caused the loss of more than half OF the
subscribers in the United States.
The new management however. tooS
energetic measures to meet these losSss-
One of the new features introduced which
proved highly popular was the publication
of a series OF biogra phicaI sketches or ceie-
brated living merchants-amOng them Cor
reIius Vanderbilt, Moses Taylor and
Thomas Tileston-each sketch being &C
companied by a superior steel plate en-
craving.
In developing the changed paper, MI
Dana took "a his model the London Econ
omist" The Commercial and Financial
Chronicle started with thirty-tvO pages,
and has grown to-day TO be publication
of from eighty to ninety or more pages
with six supplements that appear at varl-
Gus times IN the course of the year
Mr. Dana on coming TO New YORK IN
1859, bought a large tract of land on me

shillings TO the pound on land values.
The Radical budget, with its provisions
for systematic revaluation Of the lahd
in the kingdom, has opened the way lot
q drastic series Of reform measures
There is a wide range for common sense
argument without fanatical appeals for
single tax and land naturalization
which hang upon tn fringe Of a great
subject
When nearly one-third of the leno IN
Great Britain is owned by the House Of
Lords, the relations between land re-
form and the legislative veto are close
and unmistakable. State ownership Of
the land on Henry Georges principles
would convert the titled classes into cap
italists, because on any practical scheme
Of purchase they would be the largest
creditors of the nation That result lies
outside the range Of political possibili-
ties Not even the most plausible Social
list can command the attention Of work
ingmen by referring to the State as
everybody's landlord as we'll as en-
ployer. What does interest them is the
idea Of taxing land owners more and
more heavily and forcing them to break
up their estates for the benefit of the
masses.
Mr.. IRE, Mr.. Lloyd-George. Mr..
Churchill and the other vote winners on
the Liberal side have a live issue in the
next canvass-one which the people
want them 10 discuss. 1t will not be
difficult for them to prove that land will
