"BRAINS WANTED."
TO REPLACE REFORM. (By Telegraph.— Press Association.) DUNEDIN, this day. Mr. John Edie, National candidate for Clutha, addressed a meeting at Waipahi last night. He said a strong Government was required, and the old Liberal party was out to form a strong National Government, representing the best brains in the House, which the people of the Dominion were askinjr for as being more satisfactory than the Reform Government. His party was out in th© interests of the small farmers and backblock settlers. He traversed the history of the Reform party, which, he said, was a record of broken promises, and criticised Reform land policy, citing cases which he alleged showed how great a failure it had lieen. The financial policy of Reform was one of extravagance. He traversed the position as regards pensions, highways and the main political questions of tbe day. A vote of thanks and confidence was carried.
