Danger Ahead.
In Tuesday’s Eangitikei Advocate we have the editor endeavouring, by dreadful words, to raise his readers
to revolution : He asks “And why don’t we have them ?” that is armed insurrections and revolutions after the style of the South American Republics. Ho declares there are hundreds, if not thousands, who have spent a fifth of their lives handicapped by the injustice and neglect of a Government that should have made the care of these pioneers one of their first duties. All this is very dreadful but there is more to follow —“ Half a dozen rulers like Mr Seddon would have been put away in succession in their little graves, and if things had not then been better revolutions would still be revolving.” Grand is it not? If this style of writing is to be continued we shall find either Mr J. G. Wilson leading a revolution on a polo pony, or Mr Vile on a coach and four.
