Ladies & gentlemen,— I claim my fight for continuance of licensed houses to be a reasonably fair one, and I have carefully avoided abuse or misrepresentation of aiiy kind and am actuated entirely in my statements by the strong opinions 1 hold which are based on my absolute experience of the results of No-licenso in the Nolicense districts of the Dominion. But my fair light is not being met with similar fairness by those opposed to me. Certain individuals are stumping the town informing Gisborne housewives that I hawked a rubbishiy sample of tea. from door to door in this town within the pastfour months, and that I mislead people as to its quality, and therefore my public utterances should be disaredited. In fairness, though the policy of yo-ur paper does not coincide with my news, I desire that 3'ou should publish my statement of fact, viz., that my last visit to your town concluded on March 4, when I occupied the position of treasurer to Messrs Macmahon Bros., '‘‘Robbery Under Arms Company.” and I have regularly held an administrative position- with that firm for three years past. I lam personally known to business men and the pressmen in 3 very town of the Dominion, your 3Wii included, -and. never sold a- pound jf tea or any other commodity in my ife. Such false statements as are aeing circulated to the housewives if Gisborne are beneath contempt, ind I am prepared to donate £SO to ,-our local hospital if there is even -a scintilla of truth in the statements of ny detractors.— Thanking you in an.icipation, Yours, etc., GEORGE DAVIES.
