THOSE WHARVES. To the Editor.
Sir,—Your correspondent" Vox Populi " makes an attack on the Borough Council, and then commences to talk " shop " about the charges being so high, he won't be able to compete with Christchurch and live. Well, my advice to him is to die quietly, and don't make a fuss about it. He has got so many twenty pennies mixed up, that it's enough to make him sick, I would not think of offering to put him in the shed, as the rats are so full of that good wheat, they wouldn't look at him. The Council have managed to exist without the superior talent of •* Vox Populi " for a considerable time, and can do so longer still.—Yours, etc.,
