Worcester, Mass, Jan. 89, "695. Editor Tinas-It ocimiMtsa: I see by a recent number of your jour nal, tbat you are suffering from an over crowded population in Oregon, and that you think It is not fair or just to employ Chinese, when your own citlns are suf fering because they cannot procure work. It la aa .interesting and startling fact that the great state of Oregon, with an are almost twelve times that ot Massachu setts, cannot find room for ten thousand Chinamen to work unless they crowd eat an equal number of white men. Here in Massachusetts we have about 2000 China men, and they are nearly all employed la laundry work. They manage to get along, as far as outward appearances la-' dicate, and I do not think tbat there is any very unusually large number of un- , employed men in the commonwealth.. And yet iu proportion te our size we have more Chinamen than Oregon, though not so many In proportion to our population. New naturally Oregon is a better country than New England. Tbe soil more fer- -tile, an abundance of mineral wealth,, navigable rivers, a delightful climate, moderate and salubrious. If it were as thickly populated as Massachusetts it would hav3 '25,000,000 of people Instead of 818,000, and some day, under favorable circumstances, Oregon will have such a population, and tbey will be more pros perous and wealthy than tbe present pop -ulatlon of New England, because the en-, yironment ot men on tbe Pacific coast ia more conducive to comfortable living; but if your 818,000 population . now la 96,000 square miles cannot find room for ' 10,000 Chinamen, how in tne world are these natural advantages to be developed t You must bave labor to produce wealth. . If you will only give men a chance to work for themselves they will do io. No man will work for another as long as he can get along as well working for him self. If, then, you are overcrowded new it must be because tbe 818,000 people do not have free access to tbs 98,000 square miles of land in Oregon. Tbe land of the state la in the hands ot a tew ef the people, and so Chinamen cannot find work unless they bid for the job of white -men. Tbat is the way it is in Massachu setts ; but here it is white men born ia Armenia, Italy, Sweden, Poland, Bohemia, who crowd our native Americans out of their workshops. It is too bad; but tne fsct is that Massachusetts Is not halt set tled yet There la room hare for 2,000,000 ' more people. Only we must give tbe people everywhere a chance to work for themselves, aod not compel them to work for ether men by holding natural oppor tunities to labor out of use. Tben there will be plenty of room everywhere for all to work when we give men the change to. work that God intended they should have. There Is Just ooe way to do tbis, and only ' one, and tbat is by tbe single tax. Tax land- values only, and raise from this source all revenues national, state and t municipal. The effect would be to make . it unprofitable to hold land, or any natu ral monopoly, out of use, for a rise. With good wishes, I am yours very truly, ' JohnGbeoson, Sec'y Worcester B. o. Club.
