We are glad to,see that Mr A. Cox has been 1 returned • for - Waipu, Waikato, MrOox is'not new to political life, haying beeu a member of the Assembly for . Canterbury; ; for : several yeavp, but since he came to reside in the North ho has taken no part in" politics, up to' the present period. ; Ho is » anti-Pi'QviDcialist, ■ having . assisted, -lh 1867 to pass the Timaru and: Gladstone. Board of Works Act, which proved to be a, sevdro blow ' to' the' Provincial party" in Canterbury, and to Mr Moorhouse, who was Superintendent at the time; Mr Reynolds,'who was-ejected from Dunedin by Mr Macandrew and his followers, has had : ample revenge by running away with Mr Macandiew-i former .seat—Port (jlialmers. We have never liad much' faith in Mr {Reynolds as a public man,' but the means taken to displace'bim'after so-many yeais of service for .Dunediu were not mauly, and: eveiy loyer of fair play will'be: glad' to .see that he , has, carried''Mr MacaudroVs stronghold. The Provin*' ■cial party—Or rather the Separation, party, beca we separation is the cry in; Otago —have gained 1 the two seats for, the Waitaki. 5 'Mr Tribe, ;• an ■ Aboli-i tionist, has been returned for Totara. :
