(By Telegraph.) (Special to "The Evening Post.") AUCKLAND, This Day. His impressions of his first session in Parliament, together with a review of tho work done, were given by Mr. H. G. R. Mason, M.P. for Eden, in an address last evening. "My most outstanding impression is the way in .which tho remnants of tin Liberal Party voted with the Government," he said.

One would have expected that, with tho Opposition parties so small and the Government Party so largo, that those in the Opposition would have clung together and have given mutual support on all possible, occasions, but so groat is the hatred of tho Liberals toward the Labour Party, or so little difference is there between the Government and tho Liberal policies, whichever way one cares to take it, that tho Liberals always voted with tho Government."
