THOUGHTS FOR THE TIMES.
The Labour Leader’s Progress. The ten years that the Leader of the Labour Party has spent in Parliament have given him facility in the handling oif figures and ail ability to say nothing as if it meant something, but otherwise they have taught him very little. Indeed, ten years ago lie used to make a serious attempt to get to the heart of tilings, and to-day, like all the other politicians, lie concentrates all his energies on the task ol scoring points against his opponents. The speech at Master toil in which he opened his party’s election campaign revealed him to be less than ever a statesman and more than ever a politician. —Lyttelton Times.
