Wagbd, on the other hand, are incredibly low, while the prices of com modities are not falling proportionately.

NOTES AND COMMENTS.

The " Otago Daily times" expresses; ■ deep regret that Sir Robert Stout is not going to the Conference. It says: "It ie im perative that the.oolony should be informed why the Cabinet have come to a conclusion so adverse to the best interests of the colony, la it because Ministers had not sufficient patriotism to run the risk of getting through the first half of the session without the Pre mier ? and if co, did Messrs Rolleston, Bryce, and Trimble allow Major Atkinson to offer a reasonable assurance of forbear ance until the Premier returned ? No ' i doubt the difficulty felt as much j. by Ministers as by the leaders of tire * Opposition was that of leaving Sir Julius Vogel at the head of affairs for ' four months. Tbo Opposition feared, lets" V he should attempt to ploy tricks with the colony; his colleagues lest they should be unable to restrain him from provoking a defeat by the restlessness of his mind.' But if there had been on both sides a due recognition of the superiority.of. the interests of the colony to those of party, that difficulty might have been overcome." It considers Sir Wm. Fitzherbert'a appoint- 1 ment purely complimentary. The colony nas lost a great opportunity. It should. ~ have been represented, by some leader thoroughly acquainted with the colonists' ! feelings. TheDuriedln"Star"alsoregretsthe Premier's absence from the Conference, but thinks the rouse was that his colleagues did not care to face a session without him: "Tie )■'-. troubles connected with finance are formid able to Ministers, in thattheystandconvicted — of not, having understood or realised the I condition into which things, have been drift- ■ ing, whilst the determined obstinacy with which the Treasurer declines to entertain the idea of material re trenchment decidedly renders the Mm-, isterial position precarious. Sir Julius'-:^ is not popular in the present House, al-. though he still dominates the Cabinet. J In.; | view ,• of self - preservation, the decision arrived at has been prudent, for without Sir R. Stout Ministers could hardly hpld: their own, and would certainly be unable Ito pass a single measure of importance... It is quite evident from the tone of the Northern Press that there is to be a big - fight over the present balance of political power between the two Islands'. Livelytimes ,* may thereforebeexpected. TheGovernmerit will have to take a firm stand and insist on. an equitable application of the principle of popular representation' without regard td ' provincial or insular divisions." ' The "Star" also is surprised that Minis ters never entertained the desirability of utilising Sir B. W. StaffoH's services.- ■■■■■■'

The Wellington " Poet" expresses ap plauee that the intrigue between Sir R. Stout and Major Atkinson about going Homo broke down. It says:—"lt was not over creditable to either party and had the proposed arrangements been perfected, a great blow to honest party- Government in this colony would have beon struck. If attendance1 at the London Conference had not clashed with the meeting of bur own Parliament th^re would have been nothing improper in tbeGb- ' vernment, after determining how many arid' which of its own members should attend,also' luviting the leader of the Opposition to go. Parties m the colooy would riot have been at all affected, and Major Atkinson's posi tion and experience would have rendered his, presence at the Conference undoubtedly useful. It was a very different thing,' however, j to suggest that the Pre mier and the leader of the Opposition should absent themselves from the colony while Parliament was sitting, and that they should, prior to their departure, arrause what Parliament was to do and not to do id their absence. We doubt ■ whether, any Bueh arrangement by the chiefs would have been recognised or adhered to implicitly by the followers on their aide Men of independent opinions would recoil from being treated like dumb driven cattle, and controlled in their freedom of action by any arrangement of the kind. We have no hesitation in saying that 'the pairing of the two leaders, under any species of arrangement, as to what should or should not be done in their absence wou'd : have been an act of political immorality.. | Of course this would hare been intensified I nadthearrangementatonetimeruinourod o{ giving an Opposition member a seat in the ' Cabinet, so as to actag acheek and ta W faith kept, been carried out. Th« country flu 60??? - be eratelul to those membe* of the Ministry who, we believe, resolutely opposed making any terms with the leader of tber OppoaiUon. In this matter they showed a. proper appreciation of their duty to their -Bupportem and of tiieir owiJ
