A WISE RESTRICTION.
All things considered, probably the Government have done a wiso thing in issuing instructions that the granting of assisted passages should be restricted to farm workers and domestic servants. For these there is any amount of employment, and they need not be under the necessity of waiting for engagements. Artisans and other skilled workers are in a more precarious position. Our industries, says the Southland "Times," are developing and require for their development more men than the Dominion is likely to be able to supply by the natural increase of population; but the demand for the new men is not constant or unlimited.
