SIR ROBERT STOUT'S INTERVIEW.
to the editor. Sir,—One part of the interesting colloquialism read somewhat ungenerous (so unlike Sir Robert), and that an aside, too. Public men were treated more liberally in Victoria than in New Zealand. Now, past returns of expenditure have shown potential liberality, let alone unlimited travelling allowances. Residences, if one remembers correctly, were even furnished to baby's bath. In all consciousness, Victoria could not be more liberal than this. Dr Fitchett was, right in saying the best thing for New Zealand would be for her public men to do nothing for two years, but let her severely alone.—l am, etc., Lumper. Dunedin, October 24.
