WOBDS OF WISDOM nsQ mi people— When a demand arises for an Article, and if the supply should not foe quite equal to the demand, it ore-, .ates 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, fcca caused an extra demand for all kind* of food, etc., and as the producing aroa has not increased correspondingly, it at once reflects on the producing countries, and raises prices. , fcreat Britain 5b the only free trade country of any importance in the world. In Great Britain, only « few weeks ago, a Commission was appointed to inquire into the reasons wfty the cost of living had increased. It has been, officially stated, while the <sast of living had increased 50 per cent, during the last, 25 years, wages had only inoeased 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' ■ ages, asnd the only remedy for Great Britain m Protection. The Orient has, and is erecting; Jiugo industries equipped with modern machinery, worked, and to be worked with Asiatic labour. Tho question ■suggests itself to my ■people — how can .any English-speaking country cope with this menace unless amply protected to save our industries anc l wage earners from being brought down to the Asiatic level. The Single Tax theory, is absolutely one tax on the land an:l free trade. It is apparent it would not lesesn the cost of production, but reduce wages cto cope with Asiatic Labour, agumented with modern machinery. There is still hope, as I am credibly informed the success of the Single Tax policy wild depend upon tho 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 of bceoaning well and remainimp here if they will follow my advice. I stromgly advise my people, and the imaginary sufferers, to feast upon, the well known recipes, prosperity, and longevity, etc., viz"— ' .
