The member for the East Coast (Allan MacDonall Esq.,) has his own notions on the Educatio i System. At his meeting with his constituents the other day, in reply to a question asked as to Mr MsicDon ikl's views on the educ itlon ques tion, lip explaiued th.it he was opposed to the present system inasmuch as it bore tqu illy upon tho^e who derived benefits the system and tho>e who no ben'-'fit. The poor man had vi contribute to the State as much as the rich. Iv illustration of this Mr MacDon&ld mentioned u gentle m,m in Gisborne, in receipt of a l.irgo salary, who, under the exi.sfiug- system, neefl pay no more for the edw-ation of his children than the poorest man in the plane. Mr Mac-Donald thought that there should be an inspector whose duty it should b<> to ascertain the pirents who were and were not able to ply for the education of their children.
