FOE IRELAND.

To the Editor. Sir, —The movement originating in the West Coast to make St. Patrick's Day of this year memorable by a united appeal to Parliamentarians to fall into line with their fellows elsewhere in demanding justice for Ireland, deserves every support. 'Our policy of masterly inactivity in the past must now yield to a policy of "straight-out action, and we have a right to know if our'members sympathise with Ireland, and if not why not. As one of those who, mislead' by the Nationalist papers, misjudged Casement and the men of Easter week, I am taking effectual means to reverse my previous attitude and bring before Sir Joseph Ward, our Member, the unanimous desire of the majority of his constituents, that he should help in this" movement. I fancy none but pachydermatous patriots will hesitate to seize the unique opportunity of helping our motherland, one of the small nation's (hat has suffered most from evil government, to secure justice at last.—l am, etc., Jas. O'Neill. Waikiwi, .March 10.
