The "Gazette" say :—N umerous instances ma be given of Government interference in business. This was greatly resented by the business people, but they had no redress. A change of Government was their only hope, and the people caused the •hauge to be made in the most dramatic end the most drastic manner. The hope of the people now is that the new GovernBient -will free trade, commerce and industry from all political interference, and teetore to the people the freedom to work out their own salvation. There are plenty «f enterprises waiting to be tackled, and there is ample funds in the country to tackle the jobe, but what w lacking is confidence, and immediate special efforts should be made by the Government to restore confidence."
