PARLIAMENT.
The Address-in-Reply debate was continued in the House on Tuesday. The view generally taken by speakers was that Mr Massey should go Home, but he should allow Parliament to meet in his absence. An exception to this view was contained in the speech of Mr A. S. Malcolm, a Government supporter, who considered Sir James Allen might well represent New Zealand. Mr Malcolm’s speech was wholly devoted to Imperial politics, and to an exposition of the Federal Parliament proposal. His remarks were not applauded by the Government front benches. The Legislative Council concluded its Address-in-Reply debate. The feature of the afternoon was a cautious' statement by Sir Francis Bell on the Anglo-Japnnese Treaty question. Sir Francis did not actually support a renewal of the Treaty, but he expressed his entire dissent from the remarks of the Hon. W. 11. Triggs, which were directed against such an alliance.
