So long as they continued to do so he would give them his support. There was no doubt, continued the speaker, that the Ministry in eluded many most excellent and capable men, while Sir Joseph Ward was really a marvel at present. The Minister of Lands had a tremendous task before him, but was tackling it with resolution, and he was sure the eoun•try would benefit largely by keeping Mr Forbes in office. Mr F.
