THE NEW PARLIAMENT.

Biographies of Members.

WE give telow biographies of a number of the members of the new Parliament. We shall continue the series :—

WANGAXO. Mr Bryce's Opponent

George Hutchisox, the newly-elected member who has defeated Mr Bryce, is a solicitor practising in Wanganui, He •was born in Scotland and educated partly there and partly in Ireland, and brought to the colony in 1865. After Btudying law for some time, he took a one session course at Otago University, and was admitted barrister in 1872. He started business at Wanganui that year with Mr Denniston, now of Dunedin. He first turned his attention to politics in 1881, when he addressed the Waitotara electors, but withdrew in favour of Mr Bryce, of whose Parihaka policy he approved. He contested Egmont then with _ Major Atkinson, but was defeated, and in 1884 Mr Ballance beat him in Wanganui. The present is his third attempt to enter Parliament. He is a supporter of the pre sent Government on the general lines of their policy, but in education he would raise the school age and stop free education at the Fourth Standard. He is a protec tionist, and believes in Mr Ballance's land settlement scheme; is a fluent speaker, and will make an active and hard-working member. He has taken considerable in terest in Volunteering, and is now Ad jutant to the West Coast (N. 1.) Battalion.

HAWKE'S BAY.

Thomas Tanner, the new member for Waipawa, came to the colony in 1853, taking up a block of country on the Rua taniwha Plains. He is v successful sheep farmer,and oneof the negotiatorsforthe pur chase of the celebrated Herotaunga claims, the subject of much litigation. He intro duced hop culture in Hawke'3 Bay, is a large employer of labour, and a most enter prising settler. He sat in the Provincial Council till abolition, and is a member of the Harbour Board and County Council.

W. C. Smith, the member for Woodville, and Chairman of the Waipawa County Council, was formerly a storekeeper at Waipukarau, and was quite unknown till he startled the colony by beating Mr Ormond in 1881 for the Waipawa seat. He has sat in the last two Parliaments. He is not an ornate speaker, but talks fluently, and generally takes a good, prac tical view of matters.

Captain W. R. Russell, re-elected for Hawkes' Bay, is the son of the Hon. Colonel Russell, late of the 58th Regiment, formerly a member of the New Zealand Legislative Council, and Native Minister in Mr Stafford's administration in 1865. Captain Russell accompanied his father to New Zealand in 1845, and was sent Home for education at Sandhurst Royal Military College. Entered the army in 1855, joining the 58th Regiment; served in New Zealand, returning to England with the regiment, where he exchanged into the 14th, and joined that regiment in the colony; retired from the army in 1862, settling in Hawke's Bay as a sheep farmer. He represented his district for several years in the Provincial Council until the abolition of the provinces in 1876. He was elected to the House of Representatives in 1875, jointly representing Napier with .Sir Donald McLean. Captain Russell made his mark in Parliament in 1885, when he moved that the Estimates of the Public Works be re duced half a million. His re-election is very popular in Hawke's Bay district. He is a member of the Education Board, County Council, Waste Lands Board, and other local bodies, and President of Hawke's Bay Jockey Club.

John Da vies Ormoxd came to New Zea land with his brother-in-law, Lieutenant- Governor Eyre, in 1847, to whom he acted as private secretary. He settled in Hawke's Bay in 1854, taking up a large block of Maori country near Porangahau. He took an active part in securing the separation of Hawke's Bay from Wellington Province in 1858, and was Superin tendent for many j'ears up to the time of abolition. He was elected to the House of Representatives in 1863, and sat for Clive till 1881, when he was beaten by Mr W. C. Smith. In 1884 was elected for Napier. Mr Ormond was Minister of Public Works in the Fox Ministry, and held the same portfolio in the Waterhouse administration, and again in the Atkinson Government of 1876 - 77. At the termination of the native war he received the thanks of Parliament for his services in the defence of the East Coast district, over which he was Govern ment agent. He is Chairman of the Educa tion and Harbour Boards, and is con sidered the most clear-headed business man in connection with local administration in the district.

CHRISTCHURCH.

Westley B. Percival, the new member for Christchurch South, is as nearly as possible a native of New Zealand, having been born in Tasma nia while his parents were on their way to the colony. He was educated at the late Mr Merton's school, Rangiora, and afterwards at Christ's College. There he gained a scholarship, one of the coveted prizesatthewell-knownChristchurch school, for which" it is indebted to the generosity of a lady, Mrs Maria Somes. Leaving Christ's College, of which for a short time he, had been captain, Mr Percival went home to England in 1873, going to Stotiey hurst, where he entered what is known as the " philosophy class," matricula ting subsequently at London Univer sity, though he did not go through the usual course for a degree. Having de termined to enter the legal profession, and " eaten his dinners"' in the Middle Temple, the new M.H.R. was entered barrister-at law in 1877. Very shortly afterwards he returned to the colony, and having passed in New Zealand law, in due course he entered into partnership with Mr T. J. Joynt, a partnership which lasted some five or six years, and was dissolved when Mr Percival wascompelled to take a trip to Eng land owing to serious illness. Happily he re covered, and soon after his return made his first entry into public life as a thorough supporter of the Midland railway scheme, then in the infancy of its agitation period. He was thas brought into somewhat prominent notice, and when the Canterbury electors began to look about for a suitable can didate to put into the field for the city constituency their choice fell almost naturally on Mr Percival. His election may be taken as a test both as to his per sonal popularity and of the Society's good organisation, for he was returned by a large majority, though two other candidates were standing for the seat in the Government interest, and an Opposition member to boot. Mr Percival is just three and thirty.

W. P. Rektes, who will represent St. Alban's in place of Mr F. J.Gamck, ix the eldest son of the Hon. W. Reevaj, M.L.C. ThTeejcar»MrPcrcirar»jtanior,ttnclHkebim, an old pupil of (Jhrht'n College, hL$ sohool career va« tmamaily brilliant, and if the ■wirajine of (several Goycrnmenfc wholawhlp* at tke Uuh'«r»ity «»»4 tW ikmm /wholorahlp, iraxxwawiu fww j^iase*, imUlm exJtw prizos for 6^ygja»(ji work oi a lifcawy ohwacWr, ©ould assure anyone a position in the

•House, that of the new member for St. Alban's should certainly be secure. In 1874, Mr Reeves went Home intending: to matriculate at Oxford, and to study for the law in London alter taking his decree • ill health, however, put an end to both these schemes, and after a few months spent in England he returned to New Zea land. A year or two later he entered the office of Messrs Harper and Co., passed the necessary leg-alexaminations, and was admit ted to the bar here. Law, however, had fewer charms for him than journalism, and the former profession was speedily relinquished for the latter as a member of the literary staff of the papers owned by the Lyttelton " Times :I Company, and more especially of lateas the editor of the Canterbury "Times.' Mr Reeves has now for some years been a prominent journalist. The first step in his political career was taken in a semi public way as one of the "Government in a now defunct Parliamentary Union. The next was the Presidency of the Canter bury Electors' Association, of which he was one of the originators. This position he re signed when the requisition to stand for bt. Alban's showed the wish of many of the electors for a change m their representative. The finale (at present) was the winning of tho same St. Alban's seat after one of the most fiercely fought campaigns of this present election. Mr Reeves has represented the province before in other ways, having twice-played in football teams as half-back, and also against the Otago, English, Australian, and Interprovincial cricket teams. In these, and numberless local matches, he lias gradually gained the reputation of being one of the best bats in New Zealand. Though well known amongst old school-fellows and others as a, ready and fluent after-dinner speaker, it was not until fairly launched on the St. Alban's contest that he begun to develop the very considerable powers as a speaker which he now possesses, and which are likely to distinguish him even in a House by no means devoid of members strong in debate like the two members alluded to.

A. E. G. Rhodes, the chosen of the Gladstone electors, was also educated at Christ's College, -where he was captain of the school and holder of the Somes scholar ship. A wealthy son of a family known throughout these islands for the rich pos session of this world's goods, Mr Rhodes has for many years been quietly preparing to take a share in the government of the country. He is a graduate of Jesus College, Cambridge, where he matriculated in 1877, and took'his degree of B.A. and LL.B., a second-class, in law tripos three years later on. He has had some experience in a Lon don lawyer's office, is betides doing a gpod business in Christchurch as barrister and solicitor, and is president^ vice-presi dent, and committeeman of societies, clubs and associations of all kinds. His experi ence of public business is as yet limited to that gained on the Christchurch Drainage Board, of which body he has been a member for the past three or four years. He is not likely at present to add—fortun ately the cynical will say—to the oratorical forces of the House, but the thoughtful will call to mind Sheridan's ejaculation whilst still a budding orator, and tremble for the future. Mr Rhodes is about thirty years of age. His election manifesto pledges him to bean opponent of the Go vernment as at present constituted.

The experiences of life seen by Jons Joyce, who reigns in Lyttelton vice Mr Allwright, deposed by the will of the sovereign people, have been of the most varied kind. Born at St. Ivess, Cornwall, in 1839, he is of Irish extraction, but evidently has the roving, seafaring, pro gressive, West Country blood running through his veins, it is the sort of blood that breeds colonists naturally. No wonder, then, that the Cornish fisher-boy whose first experience at thirteen years of age was a trip all round the British Isles in a tiny fishing smaok should have gradually found better occupation in life than coiling in the foot ropes of a big net. Coming to Melbourne in 1854, his first employment was on the watev-police boat, of which his father had command. Smug gling and sailor rowdyism were in full swing in the digging days, and young Joyce can tell of some curious experiences during the three years that passed, till an acute attack of retrenchment—a disease which has afflicted the sister colony, too, at times — swept police boats and police away. Ser vice in the Emigration Department and the command of a small " hooker " of 55 tons, in which cook, stevedore, agent, and crew all answered to the name of Joyce, filled in a space in the new member's life till shortly before his arrival in New Zea land. Commissioner Braniean, when the "rushes" to the Otago diggings came about, organised water police at Port Chalmers, and there Mr Joyce did service in 1863 as officer in charge. Some yeai-6 after he became clerk to the Bench. The transit to law was the simple outcome of a natural desire to better himself. In 1868 Mr Joyce was articled to Mr Hodgkinson, widely known as an amateur painter in water colours, and was admitted to the bar in 1873. He practised in Dunedin and the port town. In 1879 he moved to Christ church, settled in Sydenham, was twice Mayor of the " Model Borough," and Chair man of the School Committee. There Mr Joyce is a shining light among the Volun teers, his old associations with disciplined men leading him to raise the Sydenham Rifle Corps in 1883, them ajority of which came to him in 1885. Like nearly all the new Canterbury members, he is a Vogelite of the Vogelites.

A. Loughrey, of Linwood, according to his own account is like the proverbial happy nation, he has no history. However, like those, the story of his life can be told. Mr Loughrey is another Irishman born in the colonies, for he is a native of Melbourne, where he was educated, and of which wonderful city's university he is a graduate, B.A. and LL.D. This law decree he took, as many school inspectors appear to do, in Victoria, viz., as being likely to lead to superior appointments. He arrived in New Zealand about ten years ago, and was at once made head-master of the East Ohristchurch School, one of the most important" in the North Canterbury educational district. Hardly was he settled there, when the Victorian authorities paid him the compliment of sending him a cable message requesting his acceptance of the Inspectorship of Schools again. Though travelling and toiling in the great Australian colony, it did not render him faithless to New Zealand, where he saw an opening for himself, and as a lawyer his LL.B. degree now stood him in good stead. He returned, passed as a New Zealand barrister, and joined Mr O'Connell, and afterwards Mr J. Holmes, the late member for Christshurch South, whose partner he still remains. '' Some have great ness thrust upon them," says the poet, and Mr Loughrey in his way is one of these. Politics in Victoria he had carefully eschewed, but the Linwood folds kept bothering, as Mr Loughrey puts it, and his political career began. Like Mr Percival, his publio appearance has been rather sudden. Before this, his chief performances of a public character had been the raising of the CluisE church Irish Rifle Corps, which owes its existence to his energy and the1 war scare of 1886. Mr Loußhrey is still Captain of the Irish Boys, and in Viotoria was known as an all-round athlete who could hold his own with the beifc. He is a staunch Stout-Vogolite,
