MOMENTOUS ELECTION ISSUE
■pi-l».\Y die electors of the Dominion will go to the polls in what appears to be one of the most momentous political contests in the history of New Zealand. A vigorous campaign has revealed keen interest in the issues before the country, and the prospects are for a very big vote. In this respect, in fact, everything waits on tiie weather. Electors hardly need to be told that it is their duty to vote, lor in these days it is generally recognised that the privilege of tiie franchise offered every adult, makes the people for a few brief hours the real masters of the country. But the point to be remembered is that if the political servants are not well chosen on that day. the fault must lie as much on the choosers as on the chosen. A clear judgment on the capabilities pf the candidates and the policies they represent is therefore the prerequisite of the elector at the uoll.
