A NEW CAMPAIGN. • BY MASTERTON SOLICITOR. PEE PRESS ASSOCIATION. MASTERTON, Dec. 8. A gentleman, who wishes lii.s name to remain undLsclofyed, has communicated with Air. H. C. Robinson stating that he is sufficiently impressed with the imjxirtanco of tho unity platform's creed of “tho necessity tor the unity of all classes iu tho face of the enemy,” to offer to pay liL: expenses of a campaign by Air. RoPisnvn in other towns. Mr. Robinson has accepted the offer, and is now arranging his personal affairs so as to move out practically at once, going first to Palmerston North. He believes it possible, with the full help of the press of New Zealand, to see our obligations with regard to tho Eleventh Reinforcements honourably fulfilled before the dawn of Xmas Day, and this without asking any man to go—a thing that he absolutely declines to do.
