“Jarndyce vs. Jarndyce.”
The widow of the New Jersey man who left Henry George $30,000 to h“lp the cause of “Progress and Poverty" is an earnest disciple of half of that doctrine, as she is now in the poorhouse. George himself got SSBO from it. The rest went to the lawyers. They, at least, believe in the single tax, provided it is paid to them. —Detroit Journal.
The widow of the New Jersey man who left Henry George $30,000 for the spread of the progress and poverty doctrine is in the poorhouse. After a long lawsuit over the will Mr. George realized just SSBO from the dead man’s estate and the lawyers got all the rest. It is suggested that Mr. George should now write a supplementary treatise showing how existing social conditions are not exactly prejudicial to the legal profession at least.—Boston Herald.
