S HAVE PLEASURE in again TT assuring you that we are in no way connected with any MILLING TRUST, ASSOCIATION or COMBINE —Free in every respect . The Otago Times, May 31, in a leading article, Bpeaks in most eulogistic terms of our independence, and having so successfullykept the TRUST at bay in the NORTH ISLAND, but our local papers remain silent on our good points. Though we have successfully combated the Trust, with your assistance, we have not yet been endowed with supernatural powers to control the elements to prevent drought and shortages throughout the world; and minus of these powers we are compelled to pay the market rate for wheat, which Has advanced, through the results of a •erious drought in the South, augmented with something similar occurring in Europe. We all Tike cheapness, but it is hardly fair, and not biblical, to exjfcect that one section of tfie community (i.e., farmers, etc.), should shoulder the logs alone for the betterment of manland, when no other trade or profession te asked to do so. Some platform orators for cheap notoriety say, remove the duties, no .matter now seriously it interferes with their neighbours. If this was given fcfrect to, the sweated surplus of mysienous America (with its recent disclosures in adulteration), coloured Ifcdia, where the weekly wage is about Bs, and greedy Australia, with its recent reciprocity tariff, would be damped in New Zealand, thereby ruining the farming and milling community, with their numerous dependencies. Australia had a serious drought in •902. »nd its tariff was not altered for New Zealand's benefit. The Government is ndw exhibiting the horrors of sweating, so let us be careful and reflect seriously before giving vent to idle and dreamy thoughts, •tnerwwe_ God's Own Country win no longe. exist. Thanking you for past favours, and ■eliciting a continuance, IWie remain, Always at your service, P. VIRTUE, Manager. } northern Roller Milling Co. 19 CHAMPION" BRAND:
