Myers's meeting at St- Andrew's. Hall hist night* the Herald states that: • "At the outset, ilr. Usersi took exception to his opponent ana a 'certain Motion of, the community urging that because he (the speaker) was a brewer, lie should not be supported in his candidature," and Mr. Myers".challenged anyone to hvidbr any Instance where he ever allowed his private interest,, to over-rule his public responsibilities. ' -'■ ; :'■;: «„_„. Mr. Mvers cannot deny that he is a .Brewer. He cannot say, as I can say and do hay. l hare no stake in any of the various monopolies and combines-gas. meat. coal. etc. n that are bleeding the people of Auckland He cannot show that the interests of the liQuSr monopoly and rot? the ' other monoS3 and combines specified are not diametrically opposed to the best interests of the l*opl" of Auckland. And, that' beingrwj. laud the "certain section of the community" referred to are quite right in urginrthat because he is a. brewer and h interested in other-, monopoliesl he should not be supported in his candidature. I am not opsins Mr. Myers on personal erounds. I have nut a word to say against him personally, lam fighting him because. , as a brewer and- as a shareholder in various monopolies, his interests are absolutely oppoSd tithe beat interest* of the people; andif the Archangel Gabriel himself were in a similar position;! should fight him on the very same grounds, and fight him as M rd respo,r&-Mr. Myers's.challenge.

Only .the removal of these injustices can t take the I inuor question out of politics and 'enable the more important political .questions to receive greater attention than is the case at the nreumt time." • And, in any case, it wouKardlyShe safe to entrust the admhiistration and enforcement of the Proh "itlon law to the envies of Prohibition ■Whose fault Is it that, aa Mr. Myers says, "the Liquor .question .tends to lower the standard of political life?
