WHERE DO WE COME IN?
TO THE EDITOR,
Sir,—The debate between Messrs T. E. Taylor and Laurenson, on the one side, Messrs Leadley nnd Jones on the other, with a possibility of Mr Hugo Friedlander taking part in the " scrum," is an exhibition that should not bn promoted for the leisured and well-to-do farmer only. Every holder of n town section, every leaseholder Or tenant is interested in tho subjects to be discussed, nnd I trust th.it Messrs Taylor and Laurenson, who represent and voice the opinions of the t')il«r3 more than the other combatants, will decline to take the platform miless the public meeting: is held at night, when day laborers and others who cannot attend a meeting in the afternoon may be present. I.f ir, is determined to adhere to the afternoon meeting, where do I and others like me, come in. Of course, it is competent for the Farmers' Union to do as it pleases in the matter, but if the Executive wish for a representative audience, thoir plan on this occasion ib not conducive to Eecuiing such.—l am, etu., Haed Gbaft.
