HIGHEST ARISTOCRACY
DIFFERING INTERPRETATIONS. GOVERNOR-GENERAL’S VIEW. An interesting digression on the true ... meaning or the word •'aristocracy”, by. Ins Excellency Lord Bied.isloe in i isi - - speech at tire Eany Settlers’ gather* mg at Welington on nionaay alter- - noon was pionipted oy Processor E.. P. Wilson when he spoke of the sett-" iers as being the cream of the aristocracy of. the Dominion, reports the ••Dom.nion.” “I noticed just now,” his Excellency said, ‘•that Professor Wilson described the members of this association as the aristocracy of the country! 1 en- : tirely associate myself with that description. The word aristocracy is very often quite erroneously interpret-' ed. When one comes to consider the true meaning of the word, one sees that it is a Greek word which means the domination or the controlling influence of the best human beings in a country. We hear of the aristocracy of class—somewhat unconvincing per- - haps in a highly democratic progressive..... age. We hear sometimes—and I used to be at one time rather sympathetic with the idea—of ail aristocracy of education. But there is another kind of aristocracy to which I think the p oneer settlers may make claim; and it is because I have a most profound respect for what 1 believe to be the distinguishing characteristics of heart and head, which characterised the old pioneers of 1840 and thereabouts thaty I think you are entitled to yourselves as the nucleus - of the high-. ‘ cst tvpe of aristocracy that can be found in any country.”
