The watchword of Liberalism is— "The Greatest Good of the Greatest Possible Number." The policy of Liberalism is— " Government of the people by the people for the people." • Remember what- Liberalism has done for you already! . It is to Liberalism that you owe — Adult Suffrage. Female Franchise. Old Age Pensions. Land for Settlement Act. ■■/-., Cheap Money for Farmers and Workers. Compensation for Accident. Without Liberalism you would have had no such system as that which has abolished sweating, has given you higher wages, shorter hours, and better ■ conditions of work, and has thus by orderly and constitutional me'thods promoted your prosperity and cleared the way for Industrial Peace. Before the dawn of Liberalism, New Zealand had none of these things.

These are the gifts of All these things you owe to LIBERALISM. LIBERALISM. LIBERALISM has aided the shearer and the milker and the ploughman as generously as it has helped the man at the loom, the man at the bench and the man at the forge —ithasgivenahandto"themanwiththehod,"asfreelyaßto"themanwiththehoe." LIBERALISM throughput its long and glorious career has kept steadfastly in view the rights of the people, not considered sectionally but regarded as a whole. LIBERALISM in it 3 outlook admits no rivalry between castes and classes, no local and social distinctions, no antagonism between Country and Town —in its eyes all alike are the people, and its one aim is the Common Weal. LIBERALISM has consistently enacted riemocrat/c measures, inspired by democratic principles employing democratic methods to attain the one great democratic end— the Common Good of All. LIBERALISM once more places before you a great constructive programme—a policy of enterprise and development and progress which will carry on the splendid Liberal traditions of the past to a yet more prosperous and fortunate future. WORKERS OF NEW ZEALAND! LIBERALISM has conferred upon you benefits and advantages of inestimable value that Conservatism long and obstinately denied you— See that you guard your heritage ! IN THE NAME OF PROGRESS AND FREEDOM, .•Vote. for Liberalism!
