MR. GEORGE'S OPINIONS.

[To THE EDITOR OF THE " SPECTATOR." _I S1R,—Allow me to assure you that Mr. Henry George has never advocated the "parcelling out of all land for cultivation," as you imply in your excellent article on "Country Cricket." It is most satisfactory to those who were astounded by the Spectator's criticism on Mr. George early in the year to find now that it was not the real Mr. George who was attacked, but one —a pure figment—of quite a different character. Mr. John Bright was the victim of the same delusion, and was duly answered by Mr. George himself at Newcastle. Trusting to your sense of justice to allow me to put your readers right on

this matter, I am, Sir, stc., STEWART D. HEADLEY. National Liberal Club, Trafalgar Square, London, September 17th.
