IN A CLEFT STICK.
"There is no doubt about il. — the Labour Party have had the Government in a cleft slick for the 'past two years," remarked Mr. J. A. Nash (Reform, Palmerston), in tho House of Representatives last night. "They have made a welter of it all the time, and I don't blame them. If they could get away with it, so much the better. . . It was a question of power with the Government, and never mind the cost, and the people of New Zealand are paying for that to-day. The Government wanted to be in power, the Labour Party wanted to have it their own Way, the Labour Party got what they wanted, and so the Government remained in power."
