WORDS OF WISDOM ,0 MY PEOPLE When a demand arises for an _ticle, and if the supply should not be quite equal to the demand, it creates a scarcity, consequently higher prices. English ideas and customs have been introduced into the Orient, and are spreading rapidly; this, 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. Great 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 reasoiiß why the cost of livkg had increased. It has been officially stated, while the cost of living had increased 50 per oent. during the last 25 years, wages had only increased 15 per cent, for th© same period, so it is obvious taxing 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, industries equipped with modern machinery, worked, and to. be with Asiatic labour. -: -The.question • suggests-' itself to my people— how can any English* speaking ;• country cope wHh this menace unless amply protected to save our industries and wage 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 machinery. There is still hope, as I am credibly informed the success of the Sinide Tax policy will depend upon the sure safety for a time. Daring my varied experience I found that quack recipes wore harmful to those with imaginary ailments, but they have the option of becoming well and remaining here if they will follow my advice. I strongly advise ers, to feast upon the well-known recipes, prosperity, and longevity, etc., viz:— Ample protection on things we can EUROPEAN CAPITAI lURNIBHED for attwwkva enterprise! in all substantial lines of uuoinets.
