THE EDEN ELECTORATE.
Speaking at Alotant Eden one evening last, week, Alr John Bollard, ALH.R..said that it had been stated: by his opponent that ho was a brewers’ . candidate, and that ho was being run by the brewers. He could say without hesitation that such statement was an absolute falsehood. He was pleased to get .the votes of brewers', or of prohibitionists, but he was not a brewers’ man. and never had been a brewers’ man. He. was a prohibitionist this far. that he believed in the three-fifths majority at the local option poll. He was not accusing his opponent of deliberate falsehood, but on this question he had evidently been misinformed. Air Bollard’s statement was greeted with frequent applause.
