MR. TILLETT.
TO THE EDITOR. Sir,—l was present at the social given to Mr. Tillett last night, and heard his impassioned address against capitalists, who were represented as pests to be abolished. By what means the abolition of capital was to be effected, and how the business of the world was to be carried on afterwards, was not mentioned, and here lies the weak point of Mr. Tillett and his followers. If a doctor fcere to tell a patient that he was suffering from a terrible illness that must be stopped, and then calmly went off without ever suggesting any course of treatment, the patient would be justified in doulitiug the bona fides or ability of tb,u inctor.—lem, etc., Englishman. Auckland, March 30, IS?V.
