WANGANUI.
(Per Press Telegram Agency.) This day.
A public meeting was held last night, the Mayor in the chair. A resolution was proposed : That, in the opinion of this meeting, the abolition of the provinces and local government bills, are calculated to produce better colonial and local administration, to promote settlement, and to remove the discontent of outlying districts and the constituency. Further, earnestly hopes these measures will be carried this session.
Mr Field, engineer to Eoad Boards was for abolition but could not approve of the measures. He was cried down and bis resolution ruled out of order.
The amendment was then put and carried by a large majority, only four hands being shewn for Mr. Field's resolution. The amendment having become the resolution, was carried unanimously, and a copy is to be telegraphed to Mr Bryce, the member. The greatest unanimity prevailed.
