Her man, who was borq at Rowley, Buchaq an county, and whose parents still live there, was heard at the court house it} this city by a fair sized aqdieqce l^st Friday night. Mr. Herman, whois^ state lecturer, for tbf Missouri Sinfcle Tax League, stated that the name "single tax" is somewhat misleading, that while the naine signifies the simplicity of the. theory, yet it is only the central truth around whioh a great many other noble Ideas duster. To be brief, one theory is thiB we hold with the Declaration of Independence that all men are created.equal, that All Jjave equal rights, that among these rights Is the right to live. As no man can live without land, all men ate therefore equally entitled to the use of land, and any adjustment of laws relating to land which denies this principle is morally wrong, no matter bow time honored that law may be. In order therefor to secure all men in this equal right to the use of land, we hold that land val ues are the product of the presence and industry of all the people and that in order to seoure to all men tbelr just rights to live, it is necessary to take this public value for publio purposes, but what a man"-"- makes over and above this value 1b hiB Individ' ually and the public has no right to it. Thus we propose raising all revenues Makes the food more delicious and wholesome 111 1 ii" •MHrtltfflfhfMi III 111' to iiiiii li wr for pubic purposcsi'talting the rent of land for taxes,.etc. BtiJt In considering their rent, we will not consider the im provement* on the lindv merely the val upof the raw material, or location ^alue. We claim this would raise ample revenue for' .ail public purposes and wottfd relieve industry from taxes, and, greatest of altfbeneflts, there weuid be no object In any one holding a single foot of landunless they used it. This woujd throw upon the market a vast -amount of land now held idle for spec ulative purposes. And no man would work for another for less than he could get working for himself upon land of his own. This would raise wages and as all gre.it fortunes and trusts have their foundations in land monopolies, it would strike the roots of trusts, o.
