ARCHER'S SPECIAL MESSAGE.

HAVE THEY DROPPED ISITT? “ To-morrow is the day of days. It will be your daA'. The next day will be* the day of a further cut! in the workers’ wages. Mr Andrews, as a Masseyite, must approve of that. Mr Isitt has not distinguished himself by opposition to previous cuts. His position is impossible. A while ago a. local paper published the names of the men who are carrying the Reform banner in and about Christchurch. Air Isitt* s n a pie was among them. No,v all the papers are publishing the photos of the men who are carrying the Reform banner in Christchurch. Mr Isitt’s photo is not among them What does it mean? Has official Reform dropped him? To-morrow the electors will drop him. They ought to drop him. Round the ring of -i circus some dare-devil of a girl may be allowed to try and ride two horses at one time; but no man can be permitted to play that prank in the arena of political life. Like Fred. Archer, my great namesake and kinsman in the racing world, of the Old Land, I am prepared to stick to a single horse, the true-blue steed of Labour, anl. against all comers, pilot it straight to the winning post.”
