1 Tho "Dannevirko Advocate," which has a strong leaning to the Government, refers to tho dairy school question as follows:— "The hesitation shown. by the • Government in making a final selection is becoming very wearying. The lato Mr. Seddon successfully avoided tho point. Months ago we were assured that a decision would bo arrived at as soon as Mr. Singloton, the dairy oxpert, returned from a.visit to Canada and' America. Mr. Singleton has been back in tho Dominion a considerable time, and the Government cannot yet mako an announcement. . Wo 'had expected moro satisfactory results than this from Mr. M'Nab. Tho continuous postponement of a decision bccause it is tindesir'ablo to offond some Liberal constituency scorns to-us to rather border 'oil :the farcicni. Hawko's Bay has a jrigbt to somo consideration in a matter of this kind. Palmorston's ■claims,'viewed from the point of utility, are paramount; It is central for a considerable portion of tho West Coast, .and it will undoubtedly suit tho large dairying interests of Hawke's Bay butter than any other placo that has so far been nlentionetl. The Government must be awaro of all this. It is to •ho hopod that this inoxcusablo shillyshallying will not bp further maintained, but that a definite course in the interests of a great industry .will-bo- adopted and carried through • despite tho fear- of.- offending votes in any of-tho littlo Pedlingtons -that 'may fancy they have a right to be considered." • •
