THE Marlborough Express.
SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 1869.
“ Give me the liberty to know, to utter, and to irgue freely according to conscience, above all other liberties.’ —Milton.
We are very glad to find, from a letter elsewhere, that in common with many of Mr. Bowler’s friends in the district, we have been mis-led as to the views professed by him at the late Election j and but that our contemporary the Press reported the matter so circumstantially, we should, as some did, have doubted its accuracy. To believe that Mr. Bowler was opposed to Roads and Compulsory Rating, as well as a Drainage Act, was to suppose him to have forsaken all the traditions of the past, and changed his opinions entirely. We tender him our apology most heartily, and regret that our brother of the pen should have made such a grievous error, which by the way, could scarce be the result of accident in both this and Mr. G. Dodson’s case, although it may possibly be that the reporter judged Mr. Bowler by the company he wasun. y ■■- - -■ ■ ■ ■ - ■■■--r
