MR. BUBTDO-S ADDRESS.
.» TH_ ED-TOR OF "TTCE PRESS." ; Sry-_Miring my absence from Canterbury my pro-sessional address seems to havo run right up against the Trades and Labour Council, and, Ktro-te© to say. I, an old farmer, have offend--- a voting man, president of th<* Farmers' Cnion. The Council called a public n*x*-e-br_ff at Kaiapoi. and their jppr-sentitivos firmly, but courteously, disputed my cor_-*lusions. Not so tho pr_sid©nt. In a torrent of abuse h© h--Bt©rical!y denounced m© as a polit*ical .-fossil and, in th© 6am© breath, a rant Sr-r_tl*6t. Such a meaninglem and oonti-d-iotory assertion is not ■worthy of him. I now invite Mr Jones to leave th© protection of his annual •"ddross before a select audience of 19, and call « public meeting at Kaiarxri, and I will -undertake to reply to him respectfully, without the le.kt desire to make for myself a nowepaoer reputation.—Yours, etc, _ . . D. BDDDO. •Rangiora, Ist June, 1908.
