IF THESE DUTIES ARE REMOVED, HOW WOULD THE NEW ZEALAND FARMER FARE? TO.— Mr Hogg and other Single Tax enthusiasts ao not -suggest the removal of the'duties on the raw materials (wheat, oats, etc.) it is obvious they are "running with .the hare and hunting with the hounds," their object being to kill the graingrowing and milling industries with their numerous adjuncts, such) as Southern railways, etc., and, naturally, the shrinkage would have to be met by increasing the Northern railages, etc. Their theory is one tax only and free trade. When this was given birth to. the Asiatic problem was unmatched. What encouragement would there he to go on the land unless the products of the soil are protected, on the same lines as our rivals? How would our town industries thrive under such stupidity? Oould they compete against the sweated '.surplusages of the world unless amply protected? Arid even now it is with a strug gle they exist: It is obvious the Single Tax theory is only one tax on th»> 'land, and if given effect to would abolish.the Alien, Poll Tax and bring us down to the Asiatic level. Yours truly, COMMON-SENSE.
