Railway Works.
(To the Editor of the Timks.) Sir,—l would not bother writing re the above, only that one man tries to damage the credit of others. For ono man to I mislead a newspaper, and say that seventeen men do not intend to pay the storekeeper is a slander on the good men who pay their way, and are looking for work. If my friend can get the seventeen men to give their names to the Secretary of the Hospital, I will give £i> to that institution. Re the good innings I had on the line, I did my work or I would have been kept there. My polities are'rny rights, and only an ignorant person would use them against me in a matter of this I sort. I think it is better for a man to tako a side in the good government of the country than to bo an agitator, a rail-sitter, or a Left Winger. However, to bring this matter to a head, I would ask this socalled spokesman to get the seventeen men to give their names to the Secretary of the Hospital, and I will pay the £5 at ten minutes’ notice. —I am, etc., Young New Zealander,
