CORRESPONDENCE.

» NATIVE HOSTELRY. (Sir, — In to-night's issue of the Star a 1 letter appears under the norn de plume of "Cave Canom." He like Mr Fox, has 1 taken a wrong view of my letter, ro the 1 native hottelry. My objection wbb not bo ' much against the hostelry as tho position 1 in which Mr Major wants to place it. I ; still contend it would never do to sit quietly down and allow a building of that description to be placed: in tile ' midst of our public buildings, viz., Council Chambers, Public Library, baths, Fire,' Brigade Station, etq. ''Cave Canejn" is, a little bit sarpastjc whj>n he tajks of n^w-chum agitator* of tpe garden • variety, but that cap does pot fis nip, 1 sp J do not wear it. % would just say to "Cave Canem, 1 ' Cave ?uid dicis, quango, et cqi. In conclusion, must' congratulate M Cave C^nenV* on hit choice of § norn de plume— -.vejy appropriate fop a man who is afraid to subicfib.e. h.i* name, \ trust your correspondent and Ms Fqx will accept my explanation for so far as I am concerned this correspondence is closed. Thanking you in anticipation. — I am, etc., W. SARGESON. Hawera, August 3, 1904.
