THE CHAIRMAN OF COMMITTEE IN REPLY.

: TO THB EDITOR; ' : < ' Sra,~On behalf of the members of Committee of the Manawatu Bacing, Clab, who, m conjunction with myself, were made the subject of Mr Walton's vague and frothy attack m your issue of yesterday, permit me to. state that Mr Walton was dismissed m exact accordance with the rules of the Club. The Minutes of Committee which were: given to you for publication (withs put authority) were explained by a letter from the Chairman of Coin-; j mittee (which you did not publish).; The resolution referred to as, sans; proposer, sans seconder, emanates from the wish of the committee present, and is recorded as it ap« pears through a wish expressed by ; each member present t J be identified with it, Mr Walton should keep his head cool and try to keep his fVothy indignation from effervescing m print. Before the general meeting, your readers should be spared. Mr "W alton will then doubtless, hare ample opportunity of ventilating his imaginary grievances, and probably, the much abused and long suffering members of committee will give their' version of the affair. My announcement that no reply will be given to the promised series of future attacks which the members of committee will be subjected to through the mediums of your exceedingly open correspondence column will afford Relief and unmixed satisfaction to the majority T *of your readers who it is be hoped have subjects of more im« portance to occupy their attention than Mr Walton's imaginary grieve anccs, egotism, and claims to superiority generally over the membera of Committee, so modestly put forth. The .delicate allusion to his proficiency m, arithmetic should; be charged as a commission agent's advertisement. - .-:.!;. I am,, Ac., .••■■■; . . . James ; Ki?kj-,
