WORDS OF WISDOM rmo MY PEOPLE-^ When a demand arises for an eitiole, and if the supply should not lie quite equal to the demand, it creates a scarcity, oonsequen/tly higher prices. CnglSh ideas >aud customs Itave been introduced into, the Orient, and are spreading rapidly; this, along with the world's increasing population, fc&g caused an extra demand for all kinds of food, eto., and as tihe producing area has not increased correspondingly, it at onoe reflects on the producing countries, and raises prices. itfreat Britain & ilie dnly free country of anyi, importance in the world. In Great Britain, only « few weeks ago, a Commission was appointed to inquire into the reawma why the cost of living had increased. It has been officially stated, while the oust of living ih'ad increased 50 per • cent., during the last 25 years, wages Sad only wioeased 15 per cent, for the saimfe period, so it is obvious taxing .the land will not reduce the oost of Kving, nor increase the workers' 'ages, amd the only remedy for Great Britain is Protection. - The Orient has, and is erecting, hug© industries equipped with modem 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 brought down to the Asiatic level. v The Single Tax theory is absolutely one tax on the land and free trade. It in apparent it would not lesesn th« cost of production, but reduce wages Ito cop© with Asiatic Labour, asumen'bod with modern machinery. There Is still hope, as I am credibly informed the success of the Single Tax p<?licy wild uepend upon the world adopting it. Tins 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 bceoming well and remainiin.o' ,here if tjiey will (follow my advice. I strongly "advise «ny people, and the imaginary -sufferers, to feast upon the well known reoipee, prosperity, and longevity, etc., viz..— i jiniiple protection onthings we can produce, and good wages—"CHAMPION MUSCLE-RAISER FLOUR" *nd "STANDARD" OATMEAL and ®OLLED OATS. I Remain, • Always at your service, CHAMPION. P.S.— Follow Canada's example, «®d reject Single Tax and Free Trade. (JP-TO-DATE TAXI-CAR FOR HIRE WAJSXfID KNOWN- That Mr J.
