In Great Britain, only a: few days ago, a Commission was ap- ; Ithas been officially stated, while the cost of living had increased 50 per oent. during the last 25 years, wages bad only increased 15 # per cent, for tie sane period, so it is obviouß taxing the land ;will not reduce the cost <if 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.
