Sir, —Can you tell me, Mr. Editor, why Mr. John Robertson, M.P. for Otaki, is stumping various parts of the North Island in preference to attending his duties in this part of his doctorate., Hero, we are battling away for a Government section on which to. build a Town Board office ; tho telephone service. might be shaken up by Mm—it being one of the slowest, if not tho slowest, in New Zealand j the postal service is net too good, while tlio officials are as slow as John Brown's cows; Sn agitation might be put mi foot for an early train, to Wellington; the county urgently needs a railway crossing at the end of Jubilee Road; tiiero is a market reserve his energies might secure; and 100 and 1 other things that he might give his lattentioil to with benefit. Perhaps ho recognises his chances, at the flext election «ro nil, and is making the most of a holiday. Since the election he has been in Otaki about once every four months. No, his ideal sceiiis to bo the striker, and as there arc no strikers liere, he Seeks other parts for them, So a-i revoir to John Robertson nest election.—l am,, -etc., PRO BONO PUBLICO.
