MR. A. W. HOGG.
SPEECH IN AUCKLAND.
[l*eh Piiicss Association.j AUCKLAND, July 23. Mr. A. W. Hogg, M.P. for Masterton and ex-Minister for Labor, addressed a crowded public meeting to-night. In the course of his speech he said it was olilv owing to the monstrously unjust laws of this country that land was not properly distributed. The King Country, which the Government allowed to go to waste could accommodate tens of thousands. He advocated higher wages and better conditions for labor. He believed a State Bank would ultimately be insisted on. For at least twelve months New earned had been in the grasp of moneylenders, who had been hauling in their harvest. The time was now ripe for reform in New Zealand, and he declared we were on the threshold of a momento% Reform.
