"THE DIGGERS."
Sir, —Aa one who attended Mr Gray's meeting last night, his oftrepeated and persistent referenoe to the "Digger" would seem as if all returned men were a -nark for them to aim it; that they returned absolutely unfit to resume their former social surroundings; that drink was their ultimate destiny; and that tfio present generations of Maßterton are "beine: reared to be drunknrds, if Pr7jsl*i?tion is "not carried. No wonder our churcEes are empty when such assertions are made by a minister of the Gospel. Trusting the Prohibition party will let the "Digger" rest in peace, as he has earned it.— I am, etc., JOHN SEttLt. street! Blast®rton <
