THE QUEENSLAND GOVERNMENT.
ALLEGED CENSORSHIP DENIED. BX TELIiGHAPU. ■ —OWN COKKItSPONDItNT. WELLINGTON, Dec. 10.
Queensland has come into election discussions very prominently lately, and there has been a warm debate as to whether the Ryan Labour Government ruined the State or made it an earthly paradise. Those who say that the State is ruined have had support from the Australian cable messages. Lately, the Labour caadidates have been charging the Government with having censored them.
These .statements were referred to Sir Francis Bell, who said that the Government had not, so far as he was aware, censored any Queensland Government publications. A pamphlet by one H. A. Campbell, late of tho AA’cst Australian Labour Party, entitled "Socialism, at work in Queensland,” and published in Loudon, was one in a bundle of distinctly mischievous and dangerous literature, which had been detained at the Customs on the advice of the law officers of the Crown. If it had been a publication issued by the Queensland Government it would have been differently dealt with.
