II there Is any strange thing on
thi searth It is the burden Of the
land.
The land is said to be gift OF
God to his children.
Like the air, the water and the
sun, land it is said was intended Tor
the good Of man.
Like the woods, the coal mines,
the ore mines and the oil wells, land
lit is said was given as precious
gift to man.
Why, therefore. has land become g
burden. . crushing burden on the
back Of Labor?
Ireland Is nation that has been
ruined again and again by the bur
den Of the land.
At the door Of the land there stood
la man collecting toll and NO matter
how the Irish labored the only one
enriched was he who collected toli,
When the land improved the toll
increased. When the worker built
better houses and better barns the
toll increased.
When the land improved the toll
increased. When the worker built
better houses and better barns the
toll increased.
When the worker improved his
crops, his stock. his fences and his
roads the toll increased.
And the land Of Ireland became a
burden to Ireland and the man who
collected toll became the curse OF
Ireland. sfs =
Even in the day Of famine the man
was there insisting on his toll. and at
last the Irish ran away from the
burden Of the land in Ireland.
! They ned from famine and misery
and that awful figure at the door
and they came, along with Germans,
Swedea, Poles. Italians and Russians
--multitudes Of them, to another
island. called Manhattan.
And they went to work here to
improve the land. They built road
ways and park ways and palaces
and sky scrapers and warehouses
and railroads and bridges and tun7
nels.
And the world seemed to be get
ting rich, but the workers soon saw
that With every improvement made
the burden Of the land increased
and with every soul brought into .Ae
world the, burden Of the land in
creased. 81
And the toll? The toll has gone
higher and higher and higher un-
til, In no place else in the world does
the man atthe door collect such toll,

in Manhattan fabulous sum and
here, too, the man stands at the
door.
No one escapes him. The widow,
the orphan, the unemployed they
must all pay him first.
He has only to stand at the gate
or hire some one to stand at the gate
and collect his toll. and the Irish, the
Germans, the Bohemians, the Ital-
ians and the Jews toll to pay him
toll.
And that toll mounts higher and
higher each year.
New laborers are born and new
immigrants and as the houses mount
higher and higher toward the sky
the toll mounts with them.
From hundreds the toll has gone
to thousands and from thousands
-
to ten thous~ads and from ten thous-
-ands to hundreds of thousands and
from hundreds Of thousands to mill
lions Of hard earned dollars.
And who pays the toll? Who
bears the burden Of the land? Can
idleness pay toll? Can useless pay
toll? Do capitalists pay 49,!
Whence came hte millions collect
ed by the lord Of the land? Who
is the bearer Of this ever-growing
burden?
Welt is an old story. John
Gray who lived many years ago, told
the story and many others have told
it again and again and perhaps bet
ter. But Gray's words will serve our
purpose. FIR
''We have endeavored to show,
said Gray in 1881. that the real in
come of the country, which consists
in the quantity of wealth annually
created by the labor of the people,
is taken from its producers chiefly
by the rent of land, by the rent of
houses, by the interest on money, and
by the profit of persons who buy
their labor from them at one price
and sell it at another"
The burden of land is the debt
the debt humanity owes to those who
own the land, and, as an old Greek
once said-Debts make free men
slaves. ~

SOCIALISM.

Editor Majority:
Socialism is purely an economical
question. It is the consultation OF
mems private interest, for example:
As men who are at first engaged in
business for themselves individually,
but when competition becomes SO
fierce that there is nothing but loss,
do combine forming trusts, setting
profitable prices on their goods for
the consumer to pay, and are thus
consulting their private, and indi-
vidual interest. So Socialism a
name for movement a social CON
dition q law Of societyis the Join
ing Of men for their individual in
terest, promoting it better collective
", just as capitalist are doing, but
for all instead Of q law, the master
class. and. according to scientlnc So
coalism.
A starting point in Socialism is
the truth that labor is the source Of
value, but that Of this value the la
borer7 obtains for himself merely a
subsistence wage; all over, and
above which, goes to the capitalist
until fierce competition between
them reduces it to nothing. This
strike between capitalists causes
them to fall back on to labor re-
ducing his wages. causing the inven-
ton to machinery; the practice Of
adulteration, the falsifying OF
weights and measures, until the
event Of trust combination, when the
small business man is driven Ia the
wall. This also provokes labor to
defend and protect itself: and also
when the consumer and the small
business man Is p1undered BY com
bine collectively all Of which moves
are governed BY necessity law
Of society ditfons not depend
ing upon the arbitrary viii Of men.
There are two kinds Of effort. VIZ,
Individual and combined The doing

or with the help Of others. Social
ism is a system Of combined effort
upon the part Of those who are sub
ject to the combined exploitation Of
capital, to save themselves their

of the consumer, farmer, laborer and

District Forester f. e. Olmstead,
who will remain with Mr.. Graves so
long as he is in California, said that
the departments most important work
in Southern California just at present
is the construction of a road between
Banning and Idyllwild, distance or
thirteen miles only, but through a
country which will make 1t one of the
greatest scenic routes Of travel in the
state. -,
"This road" he said, "is being built
by Riverside county, but the federal
government has contributed part of the
funds. 1t will serve as a fire break
and to give us a ready means of quick
communication in case of fire or other
necessity. Most of our money and
time are spent in constructing roads,
fire breaks and trails. In the summer,
of course. the rangers do little but fire
patrol duty.
Just now the department is partlc-
ularly interested in experiments with
eucalyptus culture and that, l believe,
will be Mr. Graves chief concern in
the southern part of the state.

from Grand Jury

SAN FRANCISCO, April 2S.-Mayor
Mccarthy today refused to make any
official statement regarding the charges
that Police Commissioner II. p. Flan-
merry promised police protection TO the
gang of alleged bunco men ana WIRE
tappers who were captured in a raid
on n pool room In Sausalito, but he
admitted that he had ordered Flannery
to refrain from the transaction of any
official business, and that his order Is
tantamount to a suspension.
The mayor said today that he would
take no further action IN the matter
until he receives official Information
from the Marin county grand jury that
Flannery stands accused or improper
relations with the alleged bunco men.

officer had been introduced TO the

ONCE.
OPPOSES COLORING OF NEWS
1.-THE relation of public fficials should
be one of good will on both sides.
Public officials can attest that the
press of the country is in the hands OF
gentlemen of education and discretion
Of the highest order.
"I feel aVerse to entering upon any
suggestion or advice. | might say,
nevertheless, some of us think jour-
nalism has gone much astray in recent
years in some fundamental respects.
Instead of confining themselves to
mere statements of facts, those who
write the news color the narrative with
their conclusions and expressions of
opinion. Would 1t not be better that
the expressions of opinion and conclu-
sions be left to the editorial columns
l feel certain a return to a lean state
ment of the facts in the news columns,
without adjectives or statements of
conclusions, would be gratifying to all
intelligent readers.
II am sure we all welcome Mr.. Stone
of the Associated Press back from
Asia, reminding us in wise words that
they have their civilization more than
a thousand years older than our own
and that if We want peace with them
the time has arrived when we must
stop taunting them as uncivilized. We
have already stopped doing that in the
case of Japan, but only after she had
recourse to cannon as large and gun
powder as strong as our own. Let us
not wait for that in the case of China,
but be just to them in showing Chris
tian principle and good will"

CHEYENNE, Wyo., April 2S.-The
court records of the Penn Wyoming
Copper company receiVership case,
which came up in the United States
court here yesterday and which in
volved charges of fraud in connection
with fifteen corporations in Carbon

for advertising various corporations.
The scheme was the formation of a

of a report with the heading: chamber
of Commerce, Grand Encampment,
Wyo."
In this report the eight syndicate
properties of the Penn-Wyoming com
pany are described from investigation
to be in a most fiourishing condition,
the work of the directors and the state
ments sent out by the company being
vouched for.
1t is alleged that the statements in

ceiving the public as to the conditions

FAMINE IN PAPER
Publishers Urge Congress to Act
Quickly on Free Wood
Pulp Measure
NEWS PRINT GETTING COSTLY
Quebec Causes Trouble by Pro-
hibiting Expectation of
Raw Material
[Associated Press1

NEW YORK, April 28.-After John
Norris, chairman Of the committee on
paper, had announced at the meeting Of
the American Newspaper Publishers
association today that the government
reports from paper mills showing stock
on hand April 1 indicated that there
was less than a six day supply of paper
for the newspapers, the association in
structed its president to send the fol-
lowing statement to congress:
"As a result of a strike in the mills
of the International Paper company,
the price Of news print paper for tran
sient needs has advanced approximate
ly SO a ton within the last five weeks.
A condition approaching a paper fam
inc is imminent.
"Aggrayating this situation is the
official announcement of the province
of Quebec that pulp wood cut from
crown lands after May 1, 1910, cannot
be exported. The American supply of
pulp wood Is almost exhausted. Many
of the American mills are dependent on
Canada for their supply of raw ma
terial, so that the action of the pro-
vincial authorities of Quebec brings to
the print paper industry of the United
States menace which the special
committee of the house of representa-
tives, after a ten months inVestimation
Of the subject attempted to avert by
its unanimous recommendation for Leg
islation.
MAY LOSE MILLIONS
"If the final action in adjusting this
print paper matter with Canada is de-
ferred for ratification and approval by
congress until next winter, it is prob
able that the newspaper loss due to
this will represent millions of dollars
We ask that you promptly act on the
bill proposed by the chairman of that
committee, James r. Mann, authoriZ-
ing the free entrance of wood pulp and
printing paper from Canada, provided
all restrictions on the expectation OF
pulp wood and wood pulp are removed.
The good faith of congress was pledged
to adopt the recommendations OF that
special committee"
The session of the association was
devoted largely to the report of the
committee on paper, submitted by Mr.
Norris, the chairman.
Much of the report was devoted TO a
report of the pulp wood situation and
the tariff complications with Canada
involved in 1t.
Some Canadian mills are paying the
regular tariff of $3.75 a ton and the
countervailing duty of 30 cents ton,
and the retaliatory duty of 81 a ton ad-
ditional-a total of $6.10 a ton in tariff
dues for admission to the American
market-in order that they might profit
bv the dispute Of the International Pa
per company with its employees" saio
Mr.. Norris in his statement. There is
a report of an Importation of news
print paper by publishers from Ger
many to relieve this market. Paper is
also coming from Norway"
