INCENDIARY LANGUAGE.
A gentleman named Pedley was pleased lo use some very peculiar language at a meeting in Melbourne <he other day. He according to Ihe report, “ expressed his approval of the ‘ Boycott ing’ and suggested that every squatter and farmer who employed Chinese would be burnt out. A box of lucifer matches should do the work. It was no use to trust altogether to parliamentary action.” One of the papers suggested that if the editor of “De Fveiheit” had been arrested for lauding the assassination of the Czar, Government ought certainly to prosecute Mr Pedley for inciting to arson.
