WEST COAST RAILWAY.
SlB, —Now that the West Coast Bailway is attracting the attention of the residents of the Bast and West Coasts, our duty as working men is to co-operate with the promoters in order to endeavour to carry out such a grand scheme, and sweep away the present existing depression. Let us pledge ourselves by every means in our power to help on so good a work, and the first step to take is, that before our members go up to the House let us extract from them a pledge that they will heartily support the scheme when the Bill is before Parliament. Any member who will not give his consent to assist in promoting the measure should not be returned at the next general election. Let us bear in mind that it is the votes of the working men that send our members to Parliament. Tours, &c., A Wobkino Man. Christchurch, February 20th.
