WAIHI ASSAULT CASES.
Per Press Association. Waihi, November 30, Mr Cotter addressed the Court at great length, reviewing the tacts, and he appealed to the Court not to record convictions against the mass of the defendants, whose actions had been the outcome of the conduct of the "strikers. In giving vent to pent-up feelings the workers had inflicted rfemarkably little injury upon those who goaded them to retaliation. They had not used lethal weapons, only the weapons which Nature had provided them with. That they should take some little toll for the insults r ahd abusegwhich they and theirs had for so long been subjected to was only to be expected.
