MR PETER BOWLING.

Mr Peter Bowling' 3 speech in Masterton last evening was chiefly devoted to trouncing newspapers, vilifying those in authority, and exposing the treachery of members of the Party to which lie himself belongs. It was devoid of anything approaching logic or reason. According to Mr Bowling himself, he is not what ho has been described. He is not an "incendiary" or a "revolutionary." He is not an aspirant for legislative honours. He is not a man of learning. He is Peter Bowling. His mission, as explained by himself, is to create combined unions instead of sectional unions. He describes a man who will not strike, when under provocation, as a "fool," and then he proceeds to assert thr.t his mission of combining the niiions is to prevent strikes! He calls newspapers "liars and hypocrites, and describes the present Labour leader in Australia as a "coward and a traitor." New Zealand workers are to be congratulated upon procuring the services of so cultured and eloquent a gentleman!
