ONE MAN, ONE JOB.

TO TUB EDITOR. Sir, —The admission by the Hon. Mr Jones that .he had not given any consideration to the question of his resigning from the City Council may be regarded as just a diplomatic reply to an awkward question, and his refusal to comment further on the matter surely shows- that the position is becoming an extremely awkward one tor the hen. gentleman’s party to explain away. No refutation was forthcoming} of the charge of neglect of civic duties on the part of Mr Jones or Dr M’Millan; no repudiation of the suspicion that they are hanging on to office just long enough to enable them to be safely and without , an election re-

placed by other Labour stalwarts; no denial of the suggestion that Labour’s cause has, by reason ot the party’s ~m i other matters, declined in Dunedin. Nothing but a terse repiy to your reporter’s inquiry: “i have no comment to make.” Verb sap.—i am, etc., September 9. Wake Up.
