JOURNALISTIC MORALITY.
The breezy little sheet which illuminates the Petone meat-works,-and the railway workshops of that locality, and which has recently come under the editorial control of. a disappointed politician, has gone out of its way to attack the morality of tho Wairarapa Ago. For why? Simply because this journal .suggested that it was an improper thing 1 -for a Maori, representing a constituency of two hundred, to have the same voice in the affairs of the country as an European representing 10,000 electors. Well, well! Some people's conception of what consiviDutes "morality" is' 1 a fearful and wonderful thing. The next time that this pa]>er records the opening of a bazaar in the Wairarapa by Mr W. C. Buchanan. M.P., we shall probably be charged with homicide! The playful little odours which agitato tho brains of Petone residents betimes must be sorely afflicting its most recent and sensitive importation.
