sition and waits also until the pressure
of population shall give the land value
his own efforts have not contributed to
call into being.
In the brief space Of letter it is not
possible to more than Indicate the loss
of freedom to which we are subjected
by bunderlng in our treatment Of the
matter of taxation. We should know.
however, that state, city or county
may Cypress its citizens by improper
use of the taxing power quite as much
as any people were ever oppressed by
prince or potentate. The oppression
lies in the fact Of Interference with
freedom TO do good things. not in the
form of the oppressor.
The working men of Maryland have
realized this wrong doing and have de-
nounced it in the meetings Of their
state federation. At the last session
Of the State Grange. subordinate
oranges were urged to study taxation
from this point Of view In so doing
farmers Of the grange were following
at distance the farmers of several
states Of the Union
The farmers who have gust tax en- con-
troll Of North Dakota. casting 50 per
cent Of the votes Of the State, demand
that land should be taxed according to
its value irrespective Of improvements.
The State Grange. the farmers organ
Izations and the labor unions of the
State Of Washington are unitedly de-
handing exactly the same change in
methods of that State. Farmers Of
North Dakota and Washington were
alike powerfully influenced by the &C
ton OF the farmers in Alberta, Sas-
katchewan and British Columbia,
where no farmer finds his taxes lin
creased because he puts his land to use
and improves in any appropriate man
ner. Similarly the Canadians followed
the lead of the farmers of New Yea
land and Australia. Great blows for
liberty are being struck in this country
in the Far West and their echoes are
heard even along the banks of the
Chesapeake and Potomac.
In such work the farmers organi-
cations of Maryland and other States
find ample justification and support in
the final report of the recent Commiss-
ion on Industrial Relations Only last
year the Manly Report, prepared for
this Commission, discussing direct
methods of dealing with respect to the
land question, after suggesting prose-
cutions to cancel land and water rights
obtained by fraud and recommending a
revision of the land laws, declares in
favor OF the principle of 1.-THE forcing
of all unused land into use by making
the tax on non-productive land the
same as on productive land of the same
kind and exempting all improvements. 3"
To this our counties as well as Balti-
more City must come for the reasons
here suggested and for other reasons
hereafter to be advanced, if we would
advance our civilization.

night. She didn't attempt to conceal
it when the hand on the campaign
clock was shot to the s 10000 mark by
the pledge of Hon. George E. Macon
Der to "dig up" enough to complete
the fund.
Mrs. Hayden, whose long service wa

Gus close Of the campaign, she was
unable to voice her appreciation to
the workers and subscribers when she
arose to acknowledge Mr.. Bassetts
tribute.
Following the meeting she went back
t. tine hospital. which as a result of
H." campaign, o will be among the
finest in the State, and there gave her
impressions of the undertaking that
has gripped the entire population OF
Augusta since its inception a week
ago.

One cannot realize that gratitude
which I feel tonight to all who helped

man who finally crowned the efforts OF
all the people by making possible the
finest thing that yer has happened in
