FARMERS AND LABOR
“At the last election the Labor Party knew that it had the support of the industrial sections in the city electorates and realising that it could not get into power without the help of some other section, it went after the small farmer, and on that occasion it got him,” remarked Hon. A. Hamilton in the course of his address in Wellington. “It had a lot of luck, for the farmer is not in any sense allied to industrial Labor, as he has no affinity with the coal-miners, wharf-laborers, seamen, and such like industrialists who form the backbone of the Labor movement.”
