When a demand arises for an article, and if the supply should not be quite equal to the demand, it creates a scarcity, consequently higher prices. English ideas and customs nave been introduced into tihe Orient, and are spreading rapidly;,this, along with the world's increasing population, ha» caused an extra demand for all kinds of food, etc., and as the producing area has not increased correspondingly, it at onoe reflects on the producing countries, and raises prices. Great Britain te tie only free I .-a J© country of any importance in the world. In Great Britain, only « few weeks 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 tad only inoensed 15 per cent, for the eaime period, so it is obvious taxing ,the land will not reduce ..the cost cf Kving, nor increase the workers' •ages, and the only remedy for Great Britain is Protection. k . - The Orient has, and is erecting; huge industries equipped with modern machinery, worked,..and to be worked with Asiatic labour. The question suggests itself to my -jieople— liow can any English- .«pe a king country cope with this menace unless amply proteoted 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. Tt is ..apparent it would not lesesn the «oßt of production, but reduce wages ito cope with Asiatic Labour, ..agumented ■with modern machinery. There is still hope, as I atn credibly informed the success of. the Single Tax policy wiH depend upon the world adopting it. Thus ought to ensure safety for a ttime. Diving my varied experience I found that quack recipes were harmful'to those with imaginary ailments, but they have the option of becoming well and remainnnc here if they will follow my advice. I stroingly advise my people, and the imaginary suffer•era, to feast upon the well known recipes, prosperity, and longevity; etc., viz-. Ample (protection on things we can Produce, and good wages—"CHAMION MUSCLE-RAISER FLOUR" and "STANDARD" OAfJPMEAL and ROLLED OATS. I Remain, Always at your service, CHAMPION.
