In discussing the imlieies issued by Sir Joseph Ward and the Premier, he said there was not a great difference between them. Ho favoured the Liberal leader, he was backed by a record of forty years. The land legislation showed tinkering by Reformers, who were for aggregation on an alarming scale. He condemned the mud--diing and bungling of the Government an connection with the renewal of the ■contract with the Imperial Government. 'Jtlr Massey's failure left tho producers without a market,or place in which to <put their produce.
