WOEDS OF WISDOM 10 'MY PEOPLE— When a demand arises for an .article, and 'if the supply should not 9x> quite equal to the demand, it creates a scarcity, consequently higher ices. English ideas and customß ave been introduced into the Orient, nd are spreading rapicHy; this, along mth the World's increasing population. ing area has not increased correspondingly, it at once reflects on the producing countries, and raises prices. tireat Britain fts the only free trade country of any importance in the world. In Great Britain, only e few weekß ago, a Commission.was appointed to inquire into the reasons why the cost of living had increased. It has been offioially stated, while the cost of living had increased 50 per cent, during the last 25 years; wages tiad only inoeased 15 per cent, for the eaime period, so it is obvious taxing the 1 land will) not reduce the cost «f living, nor increase the workers' ages, and the only remedy for Great Britain as Protection. The Orient hns, and is erecting, huge industries equipped with modern machinery, worked, and to be wprked 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 brought dawn to the Asiatic level. The Single Tax theory is ab&olutely one tax on the land and free trade. It is apparent it would not lesesn the cost of productioß. but reduce wages tto cope with Asiatic Labour, agumentsd with modern machinery. There is still hope, as I am credibly informed the gurcess of the Single Tax policy ■wilil depend upon the 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, ibut they have the option of bceoming well and remairuinp' here if they will follow my advice. I strongly advise imy people, and the imaginary sufferers, to feast upon, the well known recipes, prosperity, and longevity, etc., viz->— ' *.
