THOUGHTS FOR THE TIMES
A. Weak Scot,
The intor»’*»t and sinking fund on the public debt, as well ns upon private indebtedness of New Zealand can come but from one source—tile land, llio secondary industries, attribute nothing, nor ever rail while, they are nut under trade union regulations for the primary benefit- only of the workmen who are eni) loved in them. IVlien the time comes that goods which are manufactured in the Dominion are exported for sale, then tile burden which now sits upon the farming class, will be portanto relieved. But the secondary industries produce for purposes of local consumption only, and there can be no possibility of ever being able to exchange them in oversea markets against the products of other countries, until the whole industrial legislation is cleared away, and workmen give their full efficiency. —Mercantile Gavotte.
