" A BOYAL TRIBUTE." PARLIAMENT has decreed that New Zealand shall excel any Australian colony in the numerical strength of her military contingent, and it is s foregone conclusion that her Majosty will be advised by the Secretary of State, the Hon. Joseph Chamberlain, to recripro* cate the unexpected extent of our loyalty by some recognition worthy of a devoted people, who have sent such a military force to demonstrate our warlike instincts and ability to aid Old England in the event of war. That recognition will be, without doubt, a title to the originator and tactician who has earned his proposals in the face of a hostile section of Parliament. No doubt Her Majesty will deem a mere knighthood too meagre an honor for a statesman who has shown such Imperi* alistio exuberance. Queen Victoria will undoubtedly show some discrimination in awarding honors to Colonial Premiers, and we may 109k forward with confidence i to the Liberal Leader of New Zealand returning with something more than a "Sir" to his name. . The form of title itself may not be so very easy to place. There is one which from the analogy of strength and pnpmlarity will be generally accepted at Home and abroad as apropos. The Premier will go Home as plain Mr Seddon. What if he should re' urn as LORD BURATUEA? He is StroDg So is Suratura Tea He has promised Economy So does Suratura Tea He is not a blend of India or China No more is Suratura Tea His name is known throughout N.Z. So is that of Suratura Tea I He has a reputation So has Suratura Tea I He goes further than other Premiers i So does Suratnra than ordinary Teas. ADVANCEB TO SETTLERS.
