COMBATTING SOCIALISM.
There is one way, and one way only, by which the Government may be induced to deal with the danger that threatens, but it is not by handing over the political control of the country unreservedly into their hands, remarks the "Christchurch Press." It is by so strengthening the Opposition party, whose first and last plank is opposition to Socialism, and all that it implies, that they can command a coalition and secure their own terms as to the composition of the Ministry and the course of legislation. Socialism will never be checked in New Zealand by giving a Government that is Socialistic at heart its own way ; but it can be done by returning to Parliament a strong body of straight-out anti-Socialists, with firm and consistent opinions, and the courage to carry them out.
