LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL
TO THE EDITOR.
Sir,—7M1 1. Triggs gels more angry and runs away. He persists in his personal abuse, but refuses to deny that the Government has bartered and is still barter" ing membership of the Legislative Council for political support, or that Mr. Masscy said the practice of appointing men to this' Council merely because they put £1000 or £20,000 into a newspaper that supported the Government should bs ended. These facts remain unchallenged and unchallengeable, by Mr. Triggs, notwithstanding his suggestio falsi.
Mr. Tripes said earlier he doubted if his fellow-Councillors would thank him for entering into this controversy. -They_ won't; and, like myself, they will be glad he has said his last word. He hopes he hag given me "a lesson iv manners." I do not grudge him any consolation he may get from this pious hope.—l am, etc. J. J. M'GRATH. 26th October.
