i : ' ■■- -] GOVERNMENT AND OPPOSITION! CLAIMS. ' ' ' M " ; '"• * (To the Editor.) * ■'* Sir, —It is very amusing to notice the sophistry ol" Mr. Massey in his attempt to make the country believe he is' mora Liberal than the Premier, when it is a! well-known fact that he has fought every Liberal measure, introduced by the present Government since he has' been in the House to the utmost of his ability, amongst them, the Arbitration' Bill, Old Age Pensions/Advances to Settlers, Compensation for Accidents, etc., which he said would ruin all our industries, and drive capital from the country, instead of which New Zealand never was so prosperous nor its people so well off as at present. Even the capitalist is doing better than ever, there being practically no insolvencies. These facts speak volumes for the Seddon Ministry, and I defy anyone to name a Government in any country that can show such splendid results as this. And it will continue to progress as Jong as the present Government, with its able leader, is at the helm.. All that Mr. Massey has to offer us is a policy or platform of two paltry and elective Upper House. Was there ever a party so-hard up for an election cry, or is it because they are afraid to show their hand? Why? Freehold in land has driven thousands of us from the old countries, and been the curse -of the civilised world for hundreds ot years; and, as Mr. Massey is against an elective Upper House on the adult; suffrage basis, we want none of it. Ife also states that Mr. Seddon gets his support by grants to members supporting bis Ministry, while knowing very welt that the constituencies returning Messrs Herries and Lang, Oppositionists, have* had the largest share of public money in the colony for years. Like Mr. Bent di* in Victoria, Mr. Massey intends, im» doubt, if he gets into power, to Tepealf all democratic legislation, and sell the national assets and resources of the colony as quickly as possible to Iris friends —the capitalists. I sincerely! hope that Aucklanders will shake off) their indifference, and fight heartily fort the return of members supporting thet "grand old man" of New Zealand poli* tics, and thereby show some gratitude to him who, more than anyone else, has made it the brightest spot in the wholet world, and proved himself the most sue ful living statesman.—l am, etc., I JAB.
