ANOTHER INJUSTICE.
The announcement made in this issue that Mr J. C. Williamson will be unable to produce the brilliant pantomime "Aladdin" in Masterton, will be received with regret by a large section of the community. __To_this ; regret will be added disgust when it is known that the sole reason that JMasterton is being passed is the unsatisfactory train service between Palmerston North and Masterton. Ic is littla short of a public scandal, that the whole of the Wairarapa district should be*penalised in the way it has been for the last few months. The Railway Department could not, had it itself the task, have bungled its arrangements more completely than it has done of late. And for why? Surely not on the score of revenue. Surely not because a certain portion of our legitimate traffic has been diverted tathe'M'ana-' watu line! There must be some other reason, and what that reason is the Miuister for Railways himself best knows. At any rate, the Masterton and Forty-Mile Bush districts have a legitimate grievance, and if that grievance is not speedily redressed there will be more than a mild protest.
