WORDS OF WISDOM Wthejii a demand arises for 1 tun | artddei, and if tlie supply should n!ot be. quite equal) to the demand, it cre- l affces a scarcity, consequently higher prices. English ideas . And pusioms JLavebeem introduced -into tfhe'Oiierat,' and are spreading rapidly [this, along with the world's increasing popular toon, has caused am-:- extra demand .for ,all kinds of food, etc., and as the producing area has not increased! correspondingly, it ait once reflects on the producing countries, and raises prices. Great Britain is the only free trdde country of any importance in the world. In Great Britain,, only a few days ago, a Commission wais appointed to inquire into the reasons why the cost of living hiad inarea«ed. It has been officially stated, while the cost of living had increased 50 pea* cent, during the last 25 years, waaea had only increas&i 15 per cent* tor tiue pame period, so.it is obvious taxing the land will not rediuce the cost of living, nor increase the workers' wages, and the only remedy for Great Btataini is Protection. The Orient has, and is erecting, ivuge industries equipped with modern machinery, worked, and to be, with Asiatic llahcur. Thie question suggests itself to my people—how cope with this menace _ unless amply protected to save our industries'and wage earmerS' from being brought dowtrn to the Asiatic level? _■ The Sangje Tax .theory is absolutely one tax on thie land and free trade, ft is apparent it wooild not lessen tSfe cost of productioni, Vut reduce wages to cope with Asiatic labour, augmented with, modern machinery. Here is stiHSl hope, as I am crednbly informed the success -of - tbe Stogie Tax pollicy wil depend' upon the •srorld adopting it j this ought to ensure safety for a tune. # . During ■' my varied experience I found that quack recipe® were harmful to ifoo&e -with imaginary. ments.
