I often notice in the Press soino of my people arc advocating Free, Trade, wliicn would bo feasible, it it were universal. Yon know the trouble England got into through allowing tile dumping of German on ita markets and tile miserable pittance its nrtisajis were getting. America was not quilo so "philanthropic," and has waxed fat on England's shorlx-ishleil policy. TII9 Americans are noted for "points," hut invariably they are for themwlves. Why do not free traders advocate the removal of tho alien poll tax? If. it were done, it. would permit of ;> much lower rale of wage liein; paid, ami u lower cost, of production; and besides, we would have the cost of maintenance of those subjects instead of their .surpluses in goods, with the result: that we would f>ooll be brought down To the Asiatic level. Japan, India, and Cliina are making rapid strides in manufacturinf?, and with cheap labour, augmented with modern machinery, they will ultimately be a menace to the British artisan; but evidently this is of little moment to "some," as they appear anxious for cheap labour and gooiK without coiisiderin'; its disastrous effects to the British worker.-;.

T quite believe if you were now to offer madc-in-Goraany goods at a trifle less than those of British manufacture, patriotism, in sumo instances, would vanish like smoke. I am, TT Auckland.'
