REPLY TO "CHARITY."
(To the Editor).
Sir,—l accept your assurance that "the Corcociile tears" signed "Charity," appearing in your issue of Wednesday last, were paid for as an advertisement. It appears now that other letters signed "T.H." and "A.H." (the "anyhow" advocate) of the Liquor Party, were advertisements of a similar class, but how is it that one of them was identical with a "trade" announcement which it had previously appeared in a wellknown New Zealand weekly before being reproduced in your columns as a letter? The Mauriceville fatality hits the liquor party pretty hard. This was not unexpected, but there are other facta which will hit them harder still before the fight it? over. It is the liquor party who desire to forget things of this kind; they want no such ghosts to haunt the electors on polling day. Voters will
not forget this sad incident, and a host of others of which it may yec be our duty to remind them before November 17th. We are fighting in the best interests of the people, and put our names openly to all we write and stand by all we say.—l am, etc., JABEZ BRIDGES.
