A WARNING. v BREADWINNERS. . WB HAVE PLEASURE in again assuring yon that we are in' no way connected with any MILLINGTRUST, ASSOCIATION or COMBINE — free in every respect, The Otago Times* May 81, in a leading article,, speaks in moat eulogistic terms of our independence, and having so successfully kept the TRUST At bay in the NORTH ISLAND, but our local papers remain silent on our good points. Though we hare successfully combated the Trust, with your assistance, we have not yet been endowed with supernatural powers - to control the elements to prevent drought acl shortages throughout the world, aia minus of these powers we are compelled to pay the market rate for wheat, which has advanced, through the results of % drought in the Bouth, augmented with something similar occurring in Europe. We all like cheapness, but it is hardly f»<r, and not biolirad, to cxi pect that one section of the community (i.e., farmers, «tc>, should shoulder the loss alone for the betterment of mankind, when no other trade or profession is asked to do so. Some platform orators for cheap notoriety say, remove the duties, no matter how seriously it interferes with their neig .urs. If this was yhen effect to, the sweated surplus of mysterious American (with its recent disclosures in adulteration), coloured India, where the weekly wage is about 2s, and greedy Australia, with jts tocenfc reciprocity tariff would be dumped in Nejfr Zealand, thereby ruining the farming and milling community, with Jfcir numerous •dependencies. AratraUt' had a serious droucß+ -in 1902, audits tariff wag not altered lor New Zealand's benefit.

The Government is now exhibiting the horrors of sweating, so let us be careful and reflect seriously before uiving vent to idle and dreamy thon Lt3, otherwise God's Own Country will no longer exist. Thanking you for past favours, ai:d soliciting a continuance, — We remain, always at your service, — P. VIRTUE, Manager, Northern. Roller Milling Co. " CHAMPION " BRAND. P. C.
