MR. RUSSELL SCORES.
At the conclusion of a speech at Newmarket last week, Air G. AV. Russell was asked, “What did you do for the good of the community when you were in Parliament?” Air Russell: In 1894 I introduced into Parliament the straightest Eight-hour Bill ever brought into law in New Zealand. In 1899 I tried to get the Bank of New Zealand taken over by the Government. A voice: AVhat was the last mislake you made? Air Russell: Trying to find an expression of common sense on your face. (Laughter.)
