The following politioal "straw" whioh will serve to indicate "how the wind blows " . is from an artiole on the Agent-Generalship which appears in the " Rangitikei Advocate " : — " On all the grounds of justice and oom-naon-sense, we should say that Sir Harry Atkinson ought to be Sir Dillon Bell's successor. Supposing this appointment were 1 made, Who would become Premier? Our own choice would most emphatically be the Hon. John Bryoe if he had a seat in the Wouse. It seems to us a most extraordinary thing that hia party have not suppiicd him with a seat ere now. In tbe absence of the next beßt man would certainly be Hall. Sir John has already proved himself one of the best Premiers New Zealand has ever had. He is a capital administrator and for taot cannot be beaten."
