Words ■ / . W MY PEOPLE, - When a demand avisos for an article, and if the supply'should not be quite . equal to the demand, it creates a scare- ;' ity, consequently higher prices, English ideas'awl customs have been introduced into the Orient, and are spread- • ing rapidly; this, along with the ' vrerld's increasing . population, has caused an extra demand for all kinds of food, etc., and as the producing area has not increased correspondingly, it at once rcflects'on the producing countries and raises prices. " Great Britain is the only free trade country of any importance in the world. In Great Britain, only a, few days ago, *• a Commission was appointed to inquire •into the reasons why the co3t of hying . had increased, It has been officially stated, while .the cost of living had in- < creased 50 per cent, during the last 2o years, wages had only increased 15 per cent, for the same period, so it is obvious taxing the land will not reduce the cost of living, nor increase the workers' wages, and the only remedy for Great Britain is Protection. Ttoe Orient has, and is erecting, huge todflswies equipped with modem machinery worked, , and to be' with Asiastic labour. ' The question suggests itself to my. people-how can any English'-.speaking •' country cope with tfeii menace unless amply protected to Bare oar industries and wage-earnors ttm being brought down to the Aimstic level. ' Tlie Single Tax theory is absolutely one tax on the land and free trade. It ■io apparent it would not lessen the eost of production, but reduce wages to cope with Asiastic labor, augmented with modern machinery. There is still . hope, as lam credibly informed the sueeeii of the Single Tax policy would depend upon the world adopting it; this oagflt to insure sofety for a time. During my varied experience I found that quack recipes were harmful to those with imaginary ailments, but they have the' option of becoming well and remaining here if they will follow: my advice. I strongly advise my people, and the imaginary Batterers v to 'feast upon the well-known recipes, prosperity and longevity, etc. viz: Ample protection- on things wo can produce, and good wages- CHAMPION MUSCLE-RAISER FLOUR and ROLLED OATS.
