The late member was a supporter of the Liberal Party, and under the agreej ment arrived at between tho leaders on tho establishment of the National Government it was agreed that in case of a vacancy tho esafc ehould be filled by a man of tho same political party. 'J'iiat agreement has been loyally adhered to. and on this occasion Mr Matsey has asked those of 'his political party to cast their frsnchiecs for the man selected by Sir Joseph Ward—myaelf.
