WORDS OF WISDOM 10 MY PEOPLE When a demand arises for an article, and if the supply should not be quite equal'*b "'the demand, it creates a scarcity, consequently higher prices ,\ English idea s and customs - ihave been introduced into the Orient, and are spreading rapidly; thisj along with the world'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 reflects on the producing countries, and raises .prices. Groat 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 cost of living had increased. It has been officially stated, while the cost of living had increased 50 per cent, during the last 25 years, wages had only increased 15 per cent; for the same period, so it is obvious taking the land will not reduce the cost of living, nor increase the workers' wages, and the only remedy for Great Britain is Protection. The Orient has, and is erecting, hug© industries equipped with.modem machinery, worked, and to be iwith Asiatic labour. The question suggests itself to my people— how ©an any English speaking country cope with this menace unless amply protected to save our industries and wag© earners from being brought down to the Asiatic level . The, Single Tax theory is absolutely one tax. on the land and free trade. It is apparent it would not lessen the cost of production ; but reduce wages to cope with Asiatic labour, augmented with modern -machine ery. There is still hope, as I am. credgle Tax policy will depend upon the world- adopting it; this ought to ensure safety, for a time. ... During my varied experience I found that quack recipes were harmful to those .with imaginary ailments, but they have the option or becoming well and remaining here if they will follow my advice. I strongly advise my people, and the imaginary sufferers", to feast upon the well-known recipes, prosperity, and longevity, etc., vie:— " . ■ ■ Ample protection on things.we can produce, and good wages—''GBDAMPIOfN MJ&OLIWBAISER FLOUR" and "STANDARD" OATMEAL and BOLLEDi OATSI Remain, Always at your service, CHAMPION.
