HISTORY REPRODUCES ITSELF.
Extract from Message of Captain Cargill, first Superintendent of Otago, to the Provincial Council in 1854: — “The whole thing is an attempt to force two gentlemen into the Executive ; and here then, gentlemen, I take my stand for dissolution and an appeal to the electors, whose rights I feel bound to maintain ; and let me assure you that that stand is immovable. The electors of the Province, desp te of all oratorical flourishes about Responsible Government, shall certainly have the substance of Responsible Government, the right to judge and decide for themselves j and whatever that judgment may be, shall have my unflinching support.”
