The Tobacco Industry.

(To tho Editor), Sin,—l noted an article in your issue of yes terday on tho abovo Hubioct, and, as an od tobacco manufacturer from Victoria, would like to mako a fow remarks. You stato that the tobacco industry is in a fearfully de pressed state in that colony at tho prosont timo through tho prohibitive character ol tho Tobacco Act. I presume the article in (mention was writton by ono of your stall, and 1 fancy ho must havo been misinformed n. to tho state of tho ti .do. I left Tictorla for this placo in Juno last, and us I havo been off and on con nected with tho tobacco industry sinco it waa first established in 1854,1 ought to bo ablo to judgo an to tho atato of the trade, and I must say that I never saw it in f. more nourishing condition than when I left. I havo not lived in tho city of Melbourne for the last fow years, but was thoro somo threo months prior to coming horo, and as I did not know to what extent they were manufacturing in this colony, I mado overy inquiry in Melbourne as to whothor men could bo got for Now Zealand if required, and was told by tho manufacturers that if I procured men, I should have to induce them to leave somo of tho factories, for there was not a man known to bo out of work. Since I havo been hero, 1 havo boon in constant communication with tho Secretary of the Ciirar-makors' Socioty and the leading linn of tobacco manufacturers, and had tho trado boon in such a depressed condition in this short time, I feel confident I should buvo been made acquainted with it; in fuct, tho last letter I received, about a fort night since, from tho Secretary of tho cigar-makers statos that thoy could find work for moro hands if they had them. As rogards tho imposition of tho liconso and oxciso duties in November, 18S0, that did not losson the tobacco factories, but it did tho small cigar-makers ; and a very good thing both for tho trado and the public it did, for previous to that, when the trade had unlimited sway—nolicenso, no excise, which existed for 26 years in Victoria, and many years more in New South Wales— theso small men would buy a few pounds of imported leaf for wrappers, and fill up tho cigar with all sorts of colonial-grown rubbish, and hawk them about to public houses and small dealers at a cheap prico ; aud as the cigars, to all appearance, looked good, tho consumer was taken in till ho commenced to smoke them, when they often brought forth a blessing moro emphatic than polite. This sort of thing, of courso, gave the colonial-made cigar a bad narao, but 6ince tho license fee has boen in existence the trado has fallen into respect ablo hauds, and is in a nourishing con dition. In the latter part of your article you say the Government of this colony are pursuing a wiser policy in encoura'jinij tobacco-growing and manfac ture. Evidently the writer has not perused tho Tobacco Act, or he would find that out laws are most prohibitive. We have to pay the same duty on tho leaf as on the manu factured artielo, and are hampered with an excise duty equal to that of Vic toria at the vory commencement of the industry; and I maintain that the factories will never gain a firm footing under such a tariff, besides which the manufacturer has to pay a license fee of £50 (fifty pounds) per annum and find two sureties of £1,000. If this is not keeping the small men out with a vengeanoo, I do not know what is. More than this, our Collector of Customs in Auckland since the starting of the tobacco factories, has prohibited tho trade who have tobacco-cutting machines from importing and cutting leaf tobacco (and on which they would have to pay the full duty of 3s Cd per lb, tho same as the manufactured article), underthreatof an action at law. At the same timo, I have it on good authority that it is allowed at every principal city south of Auckland. Perhaps you, Mr Editor, can explain this. How is it that the laws of New Zealand should affect one province different to another! I have searched the Act, and can find no clause in it to justify the action of tho Collector of Customs. If tho tobacco industry is to bo established in this colony the Government ought at onco to abolish the excise duties, and when they find the colonial manufacture is oncroaching too much on the revenue, then it will be timo onough to impose it the same as in Victoria and New South Wales. In Adelaide, where tho trade has boen established about sixteen years, there is no excise duty imposed yet. Wo also require a differential duty in favour of the leaf, which ought not to be more than ls 6d, or at the outside 2s per lb; that grown in tho colony is only fit for mix ing with imported tobacco; the duty on loaf in Melbourno is only ls per lb, and manufactured 3s; cigars, Gs. I would advocate a license feo' on both cigar and tobacco manulacturers. I trust and think wo have in Sir J. Vogel a man as Treasurer that will see tho present laws altered and the manufacturing and grow ing industrios placed upon a better footing than at present; at the same time tho assistance of the Star will be most accoptable.—l am, &c, Gideon Heard. York House, Grey-street, Feb. 13th, ISBS. ' [Tho statements of fact in the article under notice wore not our own, but were quoted from an appeal issued by the Opera tive Tobacconists' dociety of Victoria. Tho difference between'those statements and those of our correspondent is one of standpoint — the former were made from tho workman's point of view, the latter are from the employer's, It is woll known that unscrupulous, Eelfisb, and short-sightod employers of labour rather rejoice, and take it as a sign of prosperity, when employmont is scarce and large numbors of operatives aro idle, because then wagos aomo down and theirjprofits are enhanoea. Our correspondent admits that the heavy license fees and bond rates havo choked off the small factories, and so far he quite agrees on the question of fact with tho statements mado in our article; but, looking at it from his own standpoint, ho approves of that action which the operatives condemn. As for his re marks about the restrictive character of the Now Zealand Tobacco Act, it is sufficient to ssy in reply that our local manufacturers havo not complainod of the burdens placed upon them j and this suggests the question —Is not tho non-success of the tobacco industry in Victoria traceable to another cause than legislative trammels, for instance, to tho "rubbishy" nature of the most of tho tobacco grown thero ? That depreciat ing cause is absent in this colony, for our tobacco is already recognised as fully equal to tho bost American-grown.—Ed, E.B.J

Hospital Services.

(To the Editor.)

Sir,—Whilst wo have our churches on every hand, whoso doors are open to all who will enter to listen to thoso upon whom the public duty devolves of instilling into the mind religious truth, I would like to ask our local clergy if they consider they have done_ their duty when in their various pulpits the exhortation has been given and the warning uttered ? For such services thoy receive from their heirers good sub stantial support; but I think I speak tho mind of a large majority of our citizens when I say that beyond the circle of their ordinary work, thero is a loud call, " Come over and help us," from those in our midst who cannot be found in any place of worship. I do not now refer to that class who willingly absent themselves, and are found outside the pale of any cfiurch influence, but to that noble institution we have in our midst, whose in mates number not a few, passing the weary hours in pain, with loved ones far away, and no kind friend to cheer and sympathise. I am aware that services are held, and all honour to those who aro found at this im portant post of duty ; but I fear many ab sent themselves from this department of work, which to my mind is one of the most urgent in any community. Would it be too much to ask ministers of all denominations tj lay aside their minor differences and, taking the advice given by a clergy man at one of Mr Booth's meetings, meet on one common platform, and as in temper anco, so in this great work, take their stand by the side of those who need a share of Gospel truth, and be found also at the bed side during the week, and not have so many to complain that they so seldom see those who profess to have taken up the work established by;the world's Redeemer. In conclusion, I would suggest to our worthy divines that, forming a Committee amongst themselves, its duty shall be to see that what I have referred to is carried out by all who, if true to their position, will be willing to help in public services, and last but not ■least, pastoral visitation.—l am, &c,, Con stant Reader. Grafton Road, Fobruarv 13, 1885.
