FOOD TAXES AND UNIONIST PROSPECTS.
[To THE EDITOR OP TEE "SPICOTATOR."J
Ste,—After spending the last two weeks in North-West Norfolk I am not surprised at the result. Talking with a working man after one of our meetings he said to me : "It is an easy job criticising the Government, but what will you do if you get into power P You will tax our food and make it still harder for us to live." It is high time that the Unionist Party threw over any idea of food taxes. We want a policy, a programme to put before the people. Let our leaders drop Tariff Reform and give us something definite to put before the voters, otherwise another General Election will not give a. Unionist majority sufficiently big to accomplish anything. The English voter doesn't care twopence about Home Rule or Welsh Disestablishment. Old-Age Pensions and the Insurance Act come home to him. What have we Unionists
to offer that man ?—I am, Sir, &c., J. C. NORTH. Great Yarmouth.
