THE WAIRAU ELECTION.
(To the Editor of the New Zealand Tablet.) Sir, — What ? Is it really imputed as a crime to Catholics that they gave Mr. Ward a " block vote." It is to be hoped they will give a " block vote " to every candidate in favor of a religious system of Government Education. If they do not they will not be true to their faith and to the colony. The division among Protestants is the strength of Catholics at elections. If they keep well together they may do something — if they divide they will do nothing j nothing good. There is surely no law, either moral, religious, or political against Catholics or any other class giving a block vote on critical occasions. — I am, &c, Unity.
