TO THE EDITOR. S lß> __lf I have hurt any of the anonymities!?) I am sorry, but they are so p'emifu'l around your office just now lhat even with the greatest car''. I cannot avoid treading on thtni. i hi- causes me grief, for the antics ot 'hese specimens in ink are to me a ji./-/,:!'d a delight, and 1 trust, Mr Edit'>i." \ou will pve them plenty of space, t'c' >uch jjrv-.it ninds should not be cramped, T la one correspondent into a ecret: For many years Borough 3.fairs were run by a little "clique," which kept, not only myself, but many others out.

Load the Straker wagon with " rail sitting," "no policy " candidates, let "Ratepayer," "Another Ratepayer," and " Straight Goer " push behind (carefully concealed from view, of course) and then we shall be reminded of Napier's defunct "Cornet Party."—l am, etc., L.
