I'or the liisu^cy of the world tenches tlisit the ) liitn who , own the land >v,i 1 1 rule it: The iliomr owner, is the most con st nictive ami at the same time the most iiiiftortaiit force in our civiliza tion. He. is a pioneer in progress, he is a lover of peace, but he is a very (lemon in battle when danger threat ens the land he loves. The small farm owned by the man who tills it is the best plant-bed in the world in which to grow a patri ot. Such a consideration brings wealth to the soil and health to the souls of men. On such a soil it is possible to produce anything, from two pecks of potatoes to the hill to a President of the United States. The wizard of the Northwest, James J. Hill, once said: Land with out population is a wilderness, pop ulation without land is a mob. Every consideration of progress and safety urges us to employ all wise and just measures to get our lands into the hands of the many and forstall that most destructive of all monopolies ? the monopoly of the soil. ?
