The Wairarapa Daily. MONDAY, MAY 30, 1887. THE CRISIS.

The Ministry having been dofoated on the ground that retrenchment should precede new taxation, Major Atkinson ought logically to form a now cabinet in order to give effect to the policy which the House has endorsed. The Ministry, however, have still one card ; left which they can play, and that is a i dissolution. Nominally tho Governor is now, master of tho situation.' He i can either grant or refuse a dissolution, anil if he adopts the former course he can impose the necessary conditions ' which he m&y deem essential to the ! cirenmstaneea of the case. Practically, , however, the House will determine i the question. If the Governor concedes : a dianolntion, lie will be certain to in- j sist that supplies be granted, and if j tho House declines to grant them there can be no dissolution, and the < resignation or dismissal of the present , Ministry becomes inevitable, If a (lis.' solution be granted, a second session ' this year is inevitable, and such a sea, i Bion will probably cost the [colony some ' thirty thousand poonds, ; A question ( has been raised as to ; whether the r onus of this c?tr& QxpejVditare rests > upon Major Robert Stant, hut virtually it thsvolyps s upon the Bouse. If the House js pr«, * pared to gi?e Major Atljiniion. ft fair \ ohanco, a secc-no" session tlrfg yoar can 1 bo disponsea mth, but if mem- 1 bflrs prefer to tales the general elea» tion at onw, they htvo It in « their power by grjm&ng auppHw C to pocket a aanhU iionoroiumtM) ft 8 jubilee celebration.

Should the House elect to have a dissolution it simply (stultifies its recent profession in faves of retrenchment. It is, however, quite capable of such conduct, though we trust it will prove, consistent. The ordinary meeting of the Masfcerton Borough Council takes place to-morrow evening.
