WHAT CREATES VALUES ON I.AND9

Some people doubt the claim of the Labor World
that land values are created by the growth of the
city and not due to the efforts of those who now
appropriate them. Such people should ponder over
the history of certain parcel of land in Seattle
In 1866 John H. Maggie took the 100 acres in the
territory of Washington. That it had no value
then is shown by the fact that any one could have
had it who thought it worth taking
In 1874 Nagle became insane and was taken to
the hospital at Stelacoom, where he was left at the
expense OF the taxpayers until 1897, when he died.
That the land had very little value then is shown
by the fact that he traded five acres of it for
blind mule short time before this
trustee for his estate had been appointed by
the court when Nagle became insane, who sold
enough OF it from time to time, to pay the taxes
The reminder in 1898 was worth fully $300,00O
Now it is evident that this value was not created
by John H. Nagle who was in an insane ASYLUM
and that it was created by the people Of Seattle
Yet the city bought three blocks for park and
reservoir site for 900 from his estate after his
death.
It is also evident that when this 100000 WAS
given to Nagles nonresident heirs who did moth
ing to earn it, that it taken from the people
who did create it. Every man, woman and child in
Seattle was poorer because of this being taken from
them, For if anyone gets without earning others
must earn without getting.''
But this is true, not alone of the Nagle estate
but OF every lot in Seattle in Duluth and in every
other place where system of taxation prevails that
burdens industry and favors monopoly

Inc trades union movement is protest against
unlimited commercial greed and avarice; it is a.
barrier against the unrestricted exploitation of the
mother and child, for the benefit of the few and
to the detriment Of the many It is barrier against
grinding poverty long hours of toll and starvation

For March.

Nearly every magazine editor in
the United States is able 10 make
an emphatic statement as to which
number Of his eriodical is the best

the editor knows without flicker of
hesitation just what one it is. If
urg d, he may go on to state that it
is a peculiar fact. not obviously
traceable to any set of conditions,
yet recurring annually with mathe.
matica precision. With the Popular
Mechanics Magazine it is always the
March number that has this fatalis-
tic tendency to surpass. Other i =

pictures and have greater effort ex-
pended on them. but the March al
