WORDS OF WISDOM ( JJIO MY PEOPLE— | "WHxenj a doniiund arises fot an' articilie, and if the supply should not bo quite equal) to the demand, it ere- \ ate® a scarcity, consequently higher | prices. English ideas and customs i have been introduced into the Orient, and are spreading rapidly; this, along I with the world's men-easing popular | tion, has caused ai* extra demand [ for 1 aJ® kinds of food, etc., and as tie prodrucing area has not increased correspondingly, it ait once reflects on the producing countries, and: raises prices. iGireat Britain is the only free l 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 cost of living hiad increased. Ithas been officially sitiated, whiille the cost of living had increased 50 per cent, during the last 25 years, wages had only increased 15 pea - cent, for 1 the pame period, so it is obvious taxing the land will l not reduce the cost of living, inor increase tihe workers' wages, and the only remedy for Great Britain; is Protection. The Otrient ha®, _aimd is erecting, huge industries equipped' with modem machinery, worked, and trt> oe» with Asiatic llabour. The question, suggest® itself to my people—how dan any English-speaking country oope with this menace _ unless amply protected to save our industries and wage eamlers from being brought dowtti, to the Asiatic lievei? The SSngfle Tax theory is absolutely one tax on thle land and free tradei. It is apparent it womld not lessen thie cost of production), but reduce wucels to cope with. Asiatic labour, augmented with modern macluurierv. There is stdl hope, as I am credibly informed the success of the Single Tax policy wii! depend upon the world adopting it; this ought to- ensure safety for a, ■bixn©. .
