KEEP THE Champion Standard Unfurled And Success will Continue The Fallacy of Free Trade 1 OFTEN notice m tiio press some of my people arc advocating FruoTrado, which would bo feasible it' it were universal. You know tho trouble England got into through allowing tho dumping of German surplusage on its markets and thi! miserable pittance its artisans were getting. America was not quite so " philanthropic," and has waxed fat on England's shortsighted policy. ( The Americans are noted for " points," but invariably they are for themselves. \\ by do not free traders udvoeuto tho removal of tho alien poll tax h If it Were done, itwould permit of a much lower rate of wage being paid, and a lower cost of pro ductiou; and, besides, wo would have till cost of maintenance of thoso subjects 111 stead of thou surplusages in goods, with the result that wo wotdd soon be brought down to the Asiatic level. Japan, India, and China are making rapid strides m manufacturing, and with cheap labour, augmented with modern machinery, they will ultimately bo a menace to the British artisan; but evidently this is of little moment to " some," as they appear anxious for cheap labour and goods without considering its disastrous affects to the British workers. It is obvious the products of the soil must ho amply protected against foreign importations from countries where land is low in price and labor cheap, otherwise tho Dominion must suffer. I quilo believe if you were now to offer matle-in-Germany goods at a trifle loss than those of British manufacture, patriotism, in some instances, would vanish like smoke. 1 am, V. AUCKLAND
