LAND O WNEHSJIU
The question of obtaining posses
sion and ownership of large tracts
of land, in this country, by indi
viduals or corporations, is one that
every citizen is interested in, and
should cry out 1 against. Judge
Brewer recently decided a suit that
involved, it is said, a tract of land
larger than the Btate of Indiana,
and as a cdtemporary emphati
cally says if there is anything that
an American' can with' especial
earnestness ask the-interference of
Infinite Wisdom and Justice to
break up utterly and foreveri it is
the possession of vast tracts of
habitable land by one man or com
bination of men. Our country has
its menace cf evils unknown and
untried in other lands, but among
tli em all there is none so formid
able or so pregnant with danger as
the power to control or' dispose Of
land areas equal to the retention
and fair support of the population
of a state. Judge Brewer's decision
so far as it releases from this stand
ing peril of our country a vast tract
of land, is a " blessed dispensation"
that should be supplemented by
an equal released from all appre
hension ot control by anv tjther
organization. The other day, eaid
the Memphis Avalanche, "there
was much jubilation in Alabama
on occount of the sale to an Grig- j
nan synuicaie 01 iw,uuu acres ui
timber." The Memphis paper
very justly hinted a broad doubt
of the beneOt of an ownership of
land that had no interest in it, and
no care for any condition of the
country that did not make or pro
mise to n.:ke i: money. We have
had some striking illustrations of
the sort of service these ill-bound
proprietors do for oar country, and
the unfortunate victims of their
gouging rents. One man intro
duced in his big Illinois estates the
Irish "rack-rent" scheme, and
worked it for all it was worth. He
galled and gored his tenants,
squeezed the last attainable drop
of rent from them, and did the
land is much good as a visitation
of Kansas grasshoppers. We have
nothing better to look for in any
case where such ownership pre
tends to cultivate land. Where it
uses the land for .timber we have
no right to hope for anything but
devastation, to be followed later
by desolation created ' by ruincus
denudation.
