TAXATION Of IDLE LAND.
(By G. w. Avery.)

He who owns the land owns the
people. The land for the people is
the key that will turn the
mass OF humanity into the line OF
progress and prosperity. The land
for speculation is the policy that
hunger and want broadcast over the
civilized world. Every avenue of en-
ployment open to the Industrial
classes is independent to greater
or less degree on the ownership OF
land. The man who does not own
piece of land has not received his
own. He is paying tribute in some
form or other to the man who has
his share as well as his own.
The land for use only, and not
for speculation, is the policy that
will, if properly carried out, settle
all our economic troubles. Fifty
one percent of our agricultural land
lying idle and an unknown number
of our people out of job. This is
grief is the national condition.
Let the people have access to the
soil and the man out Of a job will
disappear from our industrial sys-
tenn. Land in abundance is held by
idle spectators for an increase in
value to be created by the indus
trious people. On the other hand
nj 10
wealth are those grooming under the
high cost of living.
Living for humanity comes from
the soil. Let humanity have a chanc
to live. The land for the people
will put hundreds of thousands in
touch with the storehouse Of nature.
the soil. The movement it would
start, back to the farm" would re-
lieve the congested labor market of
the crowded cities and give every
man a job. This is no fancy. 1t is
cold practice. 1t has been tried
and proven. It has made New Zea-
land the most progressive country
on earth. 1t is the policy that is
being worked out in British Colum-
bia Seattle and Everett have both
voted down amendments to their
tax laws in recent elections.
The people of British Columbia
are laughing in their glee as they
see the throngs of settlers they are
getting from the states to the south
of them. Deep in their minds they
think them Yankees are not as
smart as they think"
Our cousins to the north have
not settled their land troubles by
any means. Turn to your last
weeks Pilot and you will see some
remarks about the land reserves in
Montana. The Canadians have Ian
reserves too, in fact in some parts

THE FISH HATCHERY SITE.

Jack Wise, of Lake Five, was in
town Saturday and as usual brings
in some interesting news from that
section, the most interesting Iot
which is that there seems to be
still some chance of the fish hat
cherry being located there.
On last Thursday, H. D. Dean
superintendent of the state fish
hatchery, in company with E. E.
Dow of Bolton. called on Mr.. Wise
who took them to the site at the
foot of the lake. The place had
been visited by the commission last
year, but for some reason had not
been accepted.
After a thorough inspection Mr..
Dean pronounced the site as accep-
table in every way. Mr.. Dow, who
owns the land, has offered to do
nate the state sufficient land for the
hatchery and it is understood that
the Great Northern has offered to
build a spur track to that poil.t.
According to Mr.. Dean. the pro-
posed new site is better than the
one selected Is miles north of Kali
ispell, which is without any rail
way connections, and transportation
facilities are big feature in the
hatchery business.
Mr.. Wise drove to town. over the
automobile road and reports it in
excellent condition for this time of
the year. There are a few soft
places, but within a weeks time
these will all be dried up and the
road will be fit for autos.-Colum-
bian.

more intensified than in Montana
They have started to amend their
detective land laws. We have not.
Fhe writer knows by experience
what 1t means to open farm I'm the
forest. for he was torn and reached
mans estate ON farm hewn out of
an unbrOken forest. There were not
only stumps to contend with, but
heavy growth OF hardwood timber
had to be felled and logged toge-
Their and burned, and no market for
the hardwood products. Pine tim
Der was the only forest product that
there was market for, and that
grew on low land which was unfit
for agriculture.
The writer knows by experience
that stump land can be worked with
out removing the stumps. for he has
seeded, cultivated and harvested
crops on his fathers farm on land
from which a heavy growth of hard
wood timber had been cut and burn
ed and no stumps pulled. Nor were
the stumps pulled and removed un-
til they were rotten enough to be
pulled by the only stump puller In
that country, a yoke of oxen and
log chain.
The farmers in that country got
their land cheap and on easy pay
ments, and their taxes. were low.
Naturally some of them failed and
lost their farms, but the great ma
jority of them worked out the prob
lem and secured splendid farms for
their industry. There were no rich
men in that community in those pio-
neer days. There were some that
would classify as poor, but the
writer has never seen one Of them
receive assistance from the county.
Some of them were better off tina
others and hired help. Those who
needed work turned in and helped
them. Others worked in the loggin
camps and saw mills, and others
went to the cities and worked at
trades.
1t is not advisable to cut over
land without clearing off the
stumps. Neither is it advisable for
a man without some means to settel
tie on stump land. The man who
can get a team and settle on a
farm among the stumps need not
buy food for himself, his family or
mis- stock for very long as he can
grow it among the stumps while
clearing his land.
The settling of our stump land
will create a tremendous industry.
It will start the mills going to sup
ply lumber for building. Many men
of means will come among the rest
and will spend their money clear
ing for the profit there is in It,
and this will give the poorer class
a chance to earn some money to
keep the wolf from the door while
they get something growing for
themselves.
Amend the tax laws and get the
lands into the hands of the people
and all other questions will be
settled. You may vote the republi-
can. the democratic, the prohibi-
ton, the socialist, the anarchist. or
any other party into power, but un-
less the policy, "the land for the
people," is put In force conditions
will not change materially.
Ito be cOntinued.)

ST LOUIS, April 30.-It is remark
able how one bali player can bring
a big change in major league team
especially if he is star. This has
been demonstrated more than once,
but perhaps never more forcibly than
with the St Louis Americans this sea-
son. For two years the Browns play
cd listless ball and wound up in the
last place. This spring it was pro-
dicted that they would again fall heir
TO the unwelcome honor of cellar
champions, but these critics failed to
note that George Stovall whom the
Browns obtained from Cleveland last
winter would make his presence ielt
on the team He has certainly work
ed wonders with his. fellows The
Browns from a quiet aggregation of
pill chasers have developed into one
OF the scrappiest i'm the league. They
fight from start to finish. and much
of the credit belongs to "Stovy." He
is setting the pace Of his teammates
Not alone is he playing a brilliant
game at first, but is batting better
than he ever did His gingerly playing
has awakened the other members Of
the team Another new regime for
the Browns. so different from last
season. is that there arc daily meet
| ings among Stoval. Manager Wallace
and Pitcher Powell before the game
during and after. Weak spots are
pointed out, changes are suggested
and everything done to make ST.
Louis a first division club. Picture
shows the trio chatting during a re-
! cent game.
