DEMONSTRATION LAST NIGHT
ONE PROMISED FOR WELLINGTON. [Bl TELfcOBAM— PRKSS ASSOCIATION.] AUCKLAND, This Day. A meeting was held in the Opera House last evening, protesting against the imprisonment of the Waihi strikers. The speakers included Mr. Semple, and the following resolution was carried without dissent: — "This meeting of Auckland workers demand the immediate release of the Waihi strikers in gaol, whose only crime has been loyalty and duty to their own class. Wo further unhesitatingly endorse their action in going to gaol rather than be placed under police supervision, with all its pernicious liberty-snatching, and pledge ourselves to act in whatever manner may be deemed advisable." Mr. Semple states that he intends leaving Auckland for Wellington tonight, and intends organising a demonstration at the end of the week in Wellington.
