LORD AND LADY BLEDISLOE
Sir, —1 am sure that all citizens of New Zealand will very heartily endorse the complimentary remarks made by the Prime Minister, Mr. G. W. Forbes, in London the other day, in reference to the popularity of our highly-esteemed Governor-General and Lady IMedisloe. Truly New Zealand has much to be thankful for in its past and present Governors-General. It seems, to my mind, as a plain, ordinary working man, that we get the pick of England's best —not only men of culture, and of high standing in the affairs that go to make up tho life of the nation, but men of high Christian principles who, by precept and example, set up a high standard of living, and must surely be an inspiration to all from one end of tho Dominion to the other.. Lord Bledisloe has proved himself to be all this and even more. Wo love and honour Their Excellencies for the way in which they have entered into every phase o£ our national life, and sincerely appreciate the very able and kindly advice which His Excellency has given from time to time. I feel sure tho lives of the people aro tho better and richer for it. This subject is worthy of a better and an abler pen than mine, but I feel sure nono could be more sincere. A WAini Miner.
