POLITICAL ADDRESS.
MB MEREDITH CRITICISES THE PREMIER.
COMMENDS CAPTAIN BUSSELL,
By Telegraph—Press Association,
Christchurch, last night. Mr Meredith, member for Ashley, addressed bis constituents on Saturday evening. He severely criticised the Premier, and concluded with a long statement with reference to the Glentiri incident. In replying to questions as to which side of the House he would be found next session he stated that he was a Liberal by conviction, and would always support Liberal measures and a pure Liberal administration. Ho could not follow Captain Bussell, though he considered him the most gentlemanly honorable, and upright man he had over met, and on whose veracity he would stake his life. The Premier, on the contrary, was most insulting to members of the House, and was top autocratic. The time was drawing near when, in the interests of the country, a change would have to bo made in the Government. A vote of confidence was carried.
