USE OF BAD LANGUAGE.
TO THIS EDITOB. Sib, —I was much interested in a letter I saw in your paper on the recent Court case, and the effect on children especially, of the use of filthy and j bhspbemous language in public hear-1 iug. I find there were three cases up I fc hearing that dav, one of '•hem « , very bad one, and yet, Sir; is it to the J credit of our Government that this j sort of people have votes and csn sit on ' juries on an equality with our most respectable citizens. Has the Government ever legislated to disfranchise these charactei s ? No fear; th«y would ; perhaps lose too many supporters. Comment is needless.—Yours, etc., Burgess, New Plymouth, 30th October.
