CH. CH. LIBERALS
NEW PARTY SUGGESTED.
[PER PRESS ASSOCIATION.]
CHRISTCHURCH, September 29. A division has occurred in the National Political Federation in Christ-i church, and it is likely that a New Liberal Party will be formed. A large number of members of the United Party held a meeting in the city last evening, and the meeting passed the following resolution: — “As there is, undoubtedly, a large body of electors in the Dominion who are anxious to avoid the extreme views of the Reform Party on the one hand, and of the Labour Party on the other, and who would gladly welcome ! an opportunity to associate themselves with a moderate Liberal policy, those present form themselves into a committee to set up a Liberal Party in this city.”
It is stated that the decision to form a new Party was reached aftei a very great deal of consideration, and that those behind the movement are working in conjunction with people in the North Island. A further meeting will be held on Friday evening next, when a permanent executive will be set up. It has already been announced that the' new Party will contest some of the seats in the city.
