BREADWINNERS j < i ' < WE H/.VE PLEASURE la again i assuring you that we .are in no < way connected with any MILLING 4 TRUST, ASSOCIATION. OR C 02% 4 BINE ; Free in every respect. i The Otago Times, 81st May, in a < leading article, speaks in most eulo < fyistic terms of our independence, and i having so successfully kept the < TRUST at bay in the NORTH IS- j LAND, but our local papers remain i silent on our good points. Though < we have successfully combated the i Trust, with your assistance, we have 4 not yet been endowed with supernat- 4 ural powers, to control the elements 4 to prevent drought and shortages 1 throughout the world, and iuinus oi } these powers, wo are compelled to 4 pay the market rate for wheat.whicb 4 has advanced through the results of s 4 serious drought in the South, aug- 4 mented with something similar oc- 1 curing in Europe. We all like cheap- 4 ness, but it is hardly fair, and not 4 biblical to expect that one section oi 4 tho community (i.c,, farmers, etc.), 4 should shoulder the loss aione for the * betterment of mankind, when no other trad* s* pi^fession is asked to d 4 so. a Some platform orators for cneap 4 notoriety say remove the duties, no * matter how seriously it interferes ' with their neighbours. If this was 4 given effect to, the sweated surplus 4 of mysterious America (with its re 4 cent disclosures in adulteration), col- < oured India, where the weekly wage < is about 2s, and greedy Australia, with its recent reciprocity tariff, " [ would be dumped in Now Zealand. r thereby ruining tho farming and mill- C ing community, with their numerous dependencies. Australia had -a seriou* drought In" 1902, and its tariff was not altered for New Zealand's benefit. The Government is now exhibiting the horrors of sweating, so let us be careful and reflect seriously before giving vent to idle and dreamy thoughts, otherwise God's Ow Country will no longer exist. We have spoken Thanking you for past favour* and soliciting a continuance. We remain, Always at your service, P. VJjtTUE, Manager, Northern Roller Milling Co. Of "CHAMPION" BRAND A. W. CARMICHAEL..
