WORDS OF WISDOM T° Mr PBOPM - When * demand arises for an (article, and if the supply should not fce quite equal to the demand, it creates a scarcity, consequently higher prices. English ideas and customs nave been introduced into the Orient, i»nd. ara anrftfldinc TflnidJv: this. alons 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, ami raises prices. Cireat Britain & tie only free trade country of any importance in the world. In Great Britain, only a 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 oast of living had increased 50 per cent, during the last 25 years, wages toad only inoeased 15 per cent, for the same period, so it is obvious taxing ,thei laud will not reduoe the cost. of living, nor increase the workers' ■ ages, amd the only remedy for Great Britain is Protection. 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 people— how can any English-speaking country cope with this menace unless amply protected to save our industries and wage earners from being Drought down to the Asiatic level. The Single Tax theory ig absolutely one tax on the land anil free trade. It is apparent it would not lesesn the cost of production, but reduce wages ito cope with Asiatic Labour, agumen'ted with modern machinery. There is still hope, as I am credibly informed the success of the Single Tax policy wild depend upon the world adopting it. Tins ought to ensure safety for a ttime. During my varied experience I fomnd that quack recipes were harmful to those with imaginary ailments, tout they have the option of becoming well and remaimhip 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->— lamjple protection on things we can ?roduee, and good wages—"OHAMION MUSCLE-RAISER FLOUR" and ''STANDARD" OATMEAL and EOLLED OATS.
