A CORRECTION.
[TO THE EDITOR OP THE STANDARD.] - Sir,— l see your contemporary has the hardihood to affirm that the Manawatu County Council advertisements were withdrawn from it because it advocated county separation. Thia, \q not sq. Thj>y were withdrawn because the Times threatened to put m the bailiffs for an unpaid account, and was most persistently and. offensively abusive to the then County Chairman. That should have taught Jiim circumspection" and civility, as it was many pounds out of his pocket. But not long since I see that your Horticultural Society was almost similarly threatened. Really, it is no wonder this man makes enemies on all sides. But he cannot have forgotton the first mentioned circumstance, then why does he misre-
present it, or perhaps such is his nature and he cannot help it. — I am, &c, One Who Knows.
