N EVlrtM ITS REMEDY.—T> the Editor,—lt is a heal thy sign ofthe time? when our iocal -papers' are ’ beginning to deal in a fearless manner with bankrupts ana the ■bankruptcy laws. -The time : has come when something must be done either by the legislature qjr by business meiV , themselves, to!'piit]an , end to a slate of affairs which is a disgrace to ‘ jeijVilisation.. t We;. (the updersigired) have been doing business in Ashbor- ■ ton about years, and the money we. have .lost during that period by bankrupts, 1 Jlevante’rs, and blacklegs generally amounts to agreat deal more than - the margin usually allowed forbad debts. If the law cannot protect us then we must protect ourselves, and there is only one way to do so, viz., to abolish the credit system altogether. This system has been the of other-countries besides New Zealand, and past' experience has proved it to be rotten to the core." Owing to recent heavy losses we . have iresolved >to sell for cash only in future. The honest man who i§; willing, to pay his 20s in the £, and.pay as he goes, will find this no disadvantage .but a great gain, as he. will be able to obtain a first-class article much cheaper than he would under the old system. We shall exert ourselves to the utmost as heretofore .to igive pur customers full satisfaction, and every order jvill be executed in our usual first-class style—but wp shall no longer, run any; .unnecessary ;,risk. Under ■ the dish; system, we are; prepared to offer a special line of tweeds at the following unusually low prices :—Gentleman’s suit made to order, r j£i ,lßs 6d; ladies’ tailor made ulster, £2.
