RE PROHIBITION PROCESSION.

i'TO THE EDITOR. Sir, —It is to be regretted tbat your correspondent, Mrs Rigg, should rush into print with such misleading statements about the course adopted by the Salvation Army in the above demonstration. We have no wish to come into conflict with the civic authorities, and for more than ten years our open air operations have been conducted in \ an orderly manner, and to the satisfaction of the council. I I have not the pleasure of the personal acquaint- , ance of your worthy correspondent, who seem--1 mgly is aiming at notoriety, but cannot refrain >, from expressing the opinion tbat it is a pity she 1 has endeavoured to reach this pedestal by interq fering with matters outside her own province; v and aa a favour might we request her to allow us c m the future to manage our own affaira. The plain facts of the case are these. When we arranged to take part in the procession we had no idea that the executive of the Prohibition League r were going to apply for permission, which, accordn ing to Cr Cohen s own statement, was quite unn necessary. 0 When it was published that the application had [ been made, Colonel Bailey instructed me to with- • draw from the procession—not with the intent of ° coming in conflict with the council, but simply a because it would be a violation of principle to do i 0 ?r P unedin what we have been fighting against at i) Milton, and for which 16 of our people have been , a fined or imprisoned. V lat once represented the whole affair to the ,r colonel, with the result already known to the public—one of the best and most enthusiastic ie processions we have ever had. Apologising for taking up so much of your dI valuable space,—l am, &c, r- Dunedin, jNovember 25. C. Robinson, Major.
