WOKDS OF WISDOM O MY PEOPLE ' When a demand arises for an article, and if the Bupply should not be quite equal to the demand, it creates a scarcity, consequently higher S rices. English ideas and customs ave 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 reasons why the cost of living had increased. It has been officially stated, while the cost of living had increased 5D per cent, during the last 25 years, wages had only increased 15 per cent, for the 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, Huge 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 with this menace unless amply protected to save our industries and ivage earners from being brought down to the Asiatic level The Single Tax theorv 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 lab- ,.--« on.YTri<sni:Arl wifTi mrxlprn machinery. There is still hope, as I am credibly informed the success of the Single Tax policy will depend upon the world adopting it; this ought to ensure safety for a time. During my varied experience I fonnd that quack recipes were 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 my people, and the imaginary sufferers, to feast upon the well-known recipes, prosperity, and longevity, etc., viz:— Ample protection, on things we can produce, and good wages—"CHAMPION MUSCLE-KAISER FLOUR'' and "STANDARD" OATMEAL and -ROLLED OATS. I Remain, Always at your service, CHAMPION. P.S.— Follow Canada's example, and reieot Single Tax and Free Trade.—C.
