o
Tho British Land Tcnuro Bill.
Tho British land tenure bill just in
troduced in the house of commons by
tho Liberal government provides that
a dispossessed farmer shall bo ade
quately recompensed for the permanent
improvement ho has made in the farm
he has rented. This provision, of
course, tends to security of tenure, as
do other provisions of the bill, such
as those prohibiting the eviction of
tenants for religious or political views,
allowing compensation for damage done
to crops by game which tho tenant is
forbidden to kill, and the like. Thii
measuro has been dubbed "the farm
ers' charter." It is an announcement
of tho fact that the British govern
ment is ready to take up the land ques
tion, which lies at the bottom of all
of England's economic pcrplcities. It
is noteworthy that Mr. Agar-Robartes,
who introduced the bill, belongs to the
landlord class, for he is hoir to a peer
age. In connection with this bill the
statement made by; Mr. Asqulth, chan
cellor of tho echequer, to a deputation
from a conference of taxing authorities
Is important. He announced his belief
in two principles:
The first is that those who specially
benefit by public improvements shoulJ
contribute their fair share to them;
and tho next is that it is right and
just that tho community should reap
the benefit of increased values which
are due to its own expenditures or its
own growth.
These, of course, are the principles
upon which the "single tax" is based.
If they form a part of the Liberal plat
form the Liberal party is committed
to as far reaching a reform as ever
was undertaken in England. Its meth
od may not bo "single tax" but its ob
ject must be just as radical. In the
caso of this bill the government takes
the position that the increase in the
value of land belongs, not to tho man
who owns tho land, but to tho man
who creates the increased value. From
this thero is but one step to the posi
tion that the Increase in value of land
due to tho growth of a community be
longs, not to the owner of the land,
but to the community, and therefore
may justly be appropriated by "the com
munity. The London Spectator ex
presses the conservative view of this
bill by its words of cautien: Tit must
never be forgottea that injudicious leg
islation aright impose an intolerable
