Neverthe- s, we have the ambition to become of some rvice tothe cause now enlisting under its banmner some of the foremost writers of the day. Nowwhat does the new progressive labor movement demand! Tts clains may perhaps be summed up under three heads: ‘1, It asks for better and more democratic organization of labor, 2, It demands that to the community, not to the landlord, shall accrue that immense annual ¢ ment due to geweral mdustry and enterprise, 443, It calls for an extension of state and municipal control ad ownership of such monopolies as can be managd by public bodics in the public interest “Under the first head will come adequate on of all factories and work shops by practical workingmen and women, and reduction of hours of labor whenever possible. We can sarcely estinate fully the immense benelits which people may derive fromshortening the hours of their long and monotonaus toil. “‘Under the second head will come the taxation of ground values to be applied to purpses of public improvement, ana the absorption by the state of mineral royalties. Tn London alone we pay this year to ground landlords £15,000,000 merely for permission to live here. "This huge sum is mot pad for any viue re- ceived. It is a fine levied on labor and mveition by men who haveneverraised a finger to carn it, and which is increasing at such a mte as to render its possessors nch beyond dreams of avarice. Wealth thus poured unjustly into privatecoffers might, if put to public purpses, render this huge London the most attractive city inthe world. The great purposes to which it should be put are the provision of healthy dwellings and rational recreation and in- struction for the people. “Underthe third head comes the absorp- tion by publicbodies of such institutions as markets, docks, harbors, gas and.waterand electric lighting works, rnilways, tramw omuibuses and other means of transit. “The public should own these necessary monopolies and should 1o longer permit pri- vat peojle tomalke rent and profits out of them.

It is probable that Count Kalnoky, and Ribot, French minister of foreign affairs, have ex changed views on the matter.
