'.',/• TO THE EDITOR. ■ Sir,-As .the rumour is again'; being freely circulated, in. the Chalmers electorate that Mr. E. 0. Allen is shortly to be called to ■trio,-Upper House, I would be obliged i£ jyou'would insert .this emphatic denial of the report—l am, etc., ;' ' ,'E. G. Alien. Port Ohalmera, November 20. Sir,—l wish to appeal to all those who have votes' in the Ohalmore electorate to show their jjr-atitudo on Tuesday , for 12 years' faithful representation by again plumping for Mr E. G. Allen, and so secure his, return. We all know Mt Allen is not a bom, orator, but he is an industrious worker, ■ and this is the class of m'embar that is required at the present time., In this respect he is in good company. James Macandreys.'voice- was seldom heard in * e House, but he was a splendid worker. Mr Allen, is well informed and praotacal ■and he. considers th© interests of his constituents before everything else; He is a' tried man; thoroughly, aoauainted with tho work of the House, and oWeommand the support, of a largo following, whilo his opponent beinfr.iMJw to politics,..has everywumg to 'loam.—l am, etc., .
