You know the trouble England got into through allowing the dumping of Gorman surplusage on its markets and tho miserable pittance its artisans were getting. w America was not quite so " philanthropic," and has waxed fat on England's shortsighted policy. The Americans are noted for " points," but invariably they are for themselves. Why do not free traders advocate the removal of the alien poll tax P If it Were done, it would permit of a much lower rato of wage being paid, and a lower cost of pro duction; and, besides, wo would have the cost of maintenance of those subjects instead of theft surplusages in goods, with tho result that we would soon bo brought i down to the Asiatic level. Japan, India, I and China \ are making rapid strides in manufacturing, and with cheap labour, with modern machinery, they will ultimately ho a menace to the British artisan; btit ovidently this little moment to "some," as they appear anxious fov< cheap labour and goods without considering its disastrous effects to tho British workers. It is obvious the products of tho soil must bo amply protected against foreign importations from countries where land is low in price and labor cheap, otherwise tho Dominion must suffer. I quite believe if you were now to offor mtidu-iu-Gomiauy goods at a trilje less thitn, those of British manufac-' turo, patriotism, in some instances, would vanish liko smoke. AUCKLAND.
