In footwear as in everything else a most essential point is that of quality. A boot may look stylish, but if the good leather is not jn it, the stylish appearance will count for nought in a few weeks. The two principal points of every pair of men’s boots sold by M‘EWEN’3 are “quality” in the materials and fit. Let your next pair bo on© of the many new styles waiting your selection here. Our boots last well, and are of the best fitting qualities, and will | keep their good looks right to tho end. Tho very best leathers are used, and honest workmanship put into them. McEwen Bros. BOOT & SHOE IMPORTERS, NEW PLYMOUTH, w A WARNING. BREADWINNERS. \T7E HAVE PLEASURE in again y V assuring you that wo are in no way connected with any MILLING TRUST, ASSOCIATION, hr COMBINE —free in every respect. The Otago Times, May 31, in a load, ing article, speaks in most eulogistic terms of our independence, and having ■o successfully kept the TRUST’ at bay >n the NORTH ISLAND, but our local papers remain silent on our good points. Though we have successfully combated tho Trust, with your assistance, we have not yet been endowed with supernatural powers to control the elements to prevent drought and shortages throughout tho world, and minus of these powers we are compelled to paj the market rate for wheat, which has advanced, through tho results of a serious drought in tho South, augmented with something similar occurring in Europe. We all like cheapness, but it is hardly ia'r, and not biblical, to expect that one section nf the community (he., farmers, etc.l, should shoulder the loss alone for tho betterment of mankind, when no other trade or profession is asked to do so. Some pla'f orm orators for cheap notoriety say, remove tho duties, ni matter how seriously it interferes l ith their neigh, curs. If this was given effect to, the sweated surplus of mysterious American (with its recent disclosures in adulteration), coloured India, where the weekly wage is about 2s, aad greedy Australia, with its ieceat reciprocity tariff, would he dumped in New Zealand, thereby ruining the farming and milling .community, witli their numerous dependencies Australia had a serious drought in 1802, and its tariff was not altered for New Zealand’s benefit. The Government is now exhibiting the honors of sweating, so let us ho careful and reflect seriously before giving vent to idle and dreamy thouguts, otherwise. God’s Own Country will go longer exist.
