ELECTION CAMPAIGN.
TJNTTED PARTY'S POUCY.
THE LEADER'S INTENTIONS,
(By Telegraph.—Parliamentary Reporter.) WELLINGTON, Wednesday.
A hint of Sir Joseph Ward's plan of campaign as Leader of the new United party during the coming "general election campaign was given in the House of Representatives to-night during his speech on the taxation question. "I don't propose to ramble through every electorate," said Sir Joseph. "I shall make a policy speech, and what I have to say I shall say somewhere. I have no doubt that those people who are interested in political matters will vbe able to read what I have said, whereever they may be." This brief indication of electioneering plans was given in reply to an interjection by the Minister of Education (the Hon. R. A. Wright), who sought to know whether Sir Joseph regarded the land tax system now in operation as sound. Sir Joseph's direct retort to this question was that he did not intend to deal with questions of policy in course of an unprepared speech in the House.
