OTHER ANNOUNCEMENTS.

Mr. E. P. Rishworth, Reform candidate for the Hutt seat, will speak in the Eastbourne Hall to-morrow evening, and in the Wainui-o-mata Schoolroom on Saturday next. Both meetings will begin at 8 o'clock. Speaking at Koputaroa, Mr. Evelyn Macdonald, the Liberal candidate for Otaki, eaid that the interests of the working fanner and other workers were practically identical. The New Zealand Labour Party was foolish to have forced the pace and broken the combination of Liberal and Labour. A party like an individual, although having wisdom, right and foresight oh its side, could not.expect to have its views wholly adopted at once by the other side. Men might assume principles, but character was important in those who administered them. He stressed the need of a complete overhaul and reconstruction of the machinery of government; claimed that the office of Governor-General \vas more ornamental than useful; condemned the increases to high-salaried public officers, while making little improvement in the lower grades; urged a wide extension of maternity and nursing homes, and the establishment of children's temporary homes ;' claimed that with better administration a great amount of practical good could be done without extravagant expenditure, and claimed that there was extravagance now.
