BOYCOTT AND INTIMIDATION.
in connection with the rumour that some of Mr Field’s supporters at the recent election were boycotting the storekeepers at L/evia who supported Mr Robertson, Mr F'ield writes to the Horowhenua Chronicle as loilows :—“I was sorry to leam when at Mauakau to-day that some ot my supporters were withdrawing their custom from certain tradesmen at Levin who had opposed me at the recent electiou. It will be remembered that, vvheu speaking after the poll, I expressed the strongest hope that all bitterness engendered by the struggle would soon be subdued. Though readily understanding that some feeling must necessarily exist for a lime after such a contest I trust that there will be, nevertheless, no disturbance of the business relation existing prior thereto."
