[Special to “Times.”]
WELLINGTON, October Ilia the course of an interview with Mr. R. R. Martin, Opposition organiser, who is at present in Wellington, tho question of the prospects of his party at tlio coming election was discussed. Mr. Martin said it was. of course, impossible to prophesy tho result of the elections, but he had every -reason to 'believe that not only would the "present Opposition, members who were again contesting their seats be re-elected, but the Opposition strength in the new Parliament' would be considerably increased, more particularly iia the North Island. There - was .undoubtedly, Mr. Martin said, a.goneral desire, especially in the country, 'to have an Opposition numerically stronger than at presont, and -more than -ordinary interest'would be concentrated on the coming elections. ■ . -
