Sir Robert Stout and the Liberal Party
« (her press association). Wellington, November 24. Sir Robert Stout addressed a crowded meeting of electors to-night. When in speaking as to his position regarding the present Government he said he was going to support the present Liberal party. He had belonged to the party for the past twelve years and claimed that, with the exception of Sir G. Grey, he had done more to form and weld together the present Liberal Party than any other man. He referred to the circular issued that McDonald and McLean were to be Government candidates, andsaid he had communicated with Sir Patrick Buckley, and the Hon J. McKenzie on the matter. Both replied that the Government had not authorised the circular, and Mr McKenzie expressed the hole that Sir Robert Stout would head the pope. A motion of confidence was carried, and the meeting pledged itself to return the candidate at the top of the poll.
