THOUGHTS FOR THE TIMES.
THE NEW LEADER. Possibly Mr Forbes "may say, as Mr Baldwin did when he was called to tho most responsible pol't in the country, that he needs the-sprayers as well as the congratulations of his friends. As was generally expected, the choice of the party in this particularly difficult time has fallen upon the most experienced of its leaders". Experience, capacity and temperament marked out Mr Forbes for the succession. He is a veteran Liberal, with service dating back over twenty years to the days when Sir Joseph Ward was Prime Minster for the first time. A settler on the Cheviot estate, the first of the compulsory purchases made under the liberal land policy of the ’nineties, Mr Forbes has always been closely connected, both by personal experience and by conviction, with ; the Liberal lion of land settlement. —Auckland Star.
