[Special to the * St.au.’] CHRISTCHURCH, December 6. A specimen of the Thacker mind as exhibited in one of his speeches last night: “ Mr Coates, who has been a Reformer, now wants to be a Liberal. But you must have tho mind and tho brains of ft Liberal to be a Liberal I have seen brains In all their nakedness, and have dissected them, and some of tho squashed down cramped concerns of some of those I have seen led mo to believe that we want more halfway houses than wo have got to-day. Conservative principles are no good for progress.; they have got them in England at the present moment os a service. “ But the eight million people who are not represented cannot remain unrepresented. There will be a turnover in England.”
A Voice i .Who is going to lead them? “No one 'knew who was ’going to lead the children of Israel out of tho wilderness until Moses stopped forth,” Dr Thacker replied. “ There is always a inan all the records. Tho past docs not hold a lithe records. There are as bright intellects in the world to-day as ever there were.”
