SPECIAL WORKERS.
Dave MoAulay. at Whangamomona. joins the special workers. He has a record as a pusher, and will make things happen with the constru lion men.
Ho is wiring tor some public meetings. We hope to be able to send a man soon. In the meantime, the work is moving in more ways than one. Organiser O’Byme, of the Affiliated Building Trades, writes that the whole of tl a anions in Southland are solid for the United Labor Party. The letter which told the story sent along a bundle of subscriptions for the “Times.” That is the way to get solid and to stay solid. G. it. Whiting asks for a' regular daily service tor the "Times" in Christchurch. Ho is sure that the daily would have a good reading there if put on sale in the. usual way of the local daily. It shall be done. The Christchurch South branch of the United Labor Party will start at once distributing literature each month to every house in the district. The national office is asked to furnish the literature. That it will surely do. Another inquiry comes as to whether the "Times" can do the printing for the unions affiliated with the United Labor Party. Yes, the paper can do it and will do it, and will bo sure to give satisfaction ami save money to the unions which come along. Several unions are now bringing their printing to us . and are highly p.eased. Another call for a farmers’ meeting comes from Eltham, and still another from Ashburton.
Mr Mills spoke Last night at Johnsonvllle. The attendance was good and the meeting reached the progressive people of the piacc in the most effective manner possible. The “Times" is -oing to a hundred homes, und more to follow. To-mght Mr Mills has a conference with special workers in Hastings. To-morrow aiternoon he speaks in Hastings, and at Napier t.. night—after the church service. The Kev. J. R. Archer is specially interested in the Sunday night meeting at Napier. The subject both in the afternoon and in the evening will be "Moses, tne Land Reformer."
Last Sunday the Eev. J. W. Burton presided at the brotherhood meet.ug at isew Plymouth, and in his introduction of -Mr Mins, wno was the speaker, he said that no wished to congratulate the speaKer on having done so much to elevate poi.tii.al discussions from abus.ve personalities ,to tue level/ of the serious study of important public questions.
