TJije Otago Times, May 31, iv a leading^'article, speaks in most eulogistic terms of" our independence, and having so successfully kept the TRUST jat bay in the "NORTH ISLAND, but our local papgrs -remain silent on our good points. Though we have successfully combated th© Trust, with your .assistance, we have not yet been endowed witli supernatural powers to control the to prevent drought and shortages throughout the world, and minus of these powers we are compelled to pay the market rate for wheat, which hasj^advanced, through the results of a serious drought in* the South, augmented w,ith. something similar occurring in Europe. We all like cheapness, but it is Ijardlj' fair, and not biblical, to expect'that one section of , the community (i.e.', farmers, .etc.), should shoulder the loss ilalqne^ for the betterment of man* kind| w.hen no other trade or profession is a&ked to do so. y I Sane platform . orators, for cheap notoriety say, remove the duties, . no matter how seriously it interferes with thefr neighbours. If this was given effect to, the sweated surplus of i mysterious , America (with its recent disclosures in adulteration), coloured India, where the weekly wage is about 2s, 4nd greedy Australia, with its reeentv; reciprocity tariff, would be dumped in New Zealand, thereby ruining ihe farming and milling community, wwith .theirr r numerous dependencies. Australia" had a serious drought in 1902} and its tariff was not altered for New' Zealand's benefit. The Government is now exhibiting tie horrors of sweating, so let us be •artful and reflect seriously before giving vent to idle and dreamy thoughts, etherwise God's Own Country will no longer exist. Thanking you for past favours, and seliwtisg a continuance, „ „ .We remain, 'Always *at your "service, P. VIRTUE, Manager, , " Northern Roller Milling Co. " CHAMPION " BRAND.
