THE SWIMMING RACES.
[ADVEHriSEMKVI'.J TO THE EDITOR. Sits, —Over your leader appears a motbs '* Equal and exact justice to all men, etc., and this must be my plea for opening your columns as I am sure you would not allow any one to be accused of fraud without a right of reply. There are frauds and frauds, but the honourable secretary stands alone ; modern degeneracy has not reacned him. I am accused of signing myself an official; this I deny, I am not an official, never was an ottieial, nor have any desire to be an official. Next appears in this letter written by the Secretary W.A.S.R., a conglommeration of swimming sportsswiinmin" races, Waikato ;uiniversury, Hamilton "anniversary, Hamilton annual, etc., and these he calmly says, never took place, never existed. Perhaps the honourable •reutlemun will discover ho does not exist himself, that he is myth, an hallucination, a noinnenon, a phantasm, an idea, a temporary possibility of unpleasant sensations. 'Perhaps he will also learn that there is no lake, no river, no Missen s 7s (>J, no nothing ! —Yours truly, H. Smith.
