ROSKILL ELECTION.
Why all the liubhub about the selection of Miss Melville'for the Roskill seat? If Mr. Potter or Mr. Morrison had been chosen scores of Miss Melville's supporters would have had the same grievance. It is said that the method of selection was not democratic, but it was just as democratic as the selection ballot at the last by-election in Eden. As far as transport is concerned, cue man would be powerless against a combination like the City Council and the Government, who are leagued together in determination to force extensive tramway extensions on to unwilling ratepayers. Wliy cannot the Potterites be sports and give Miss MelviHe a chance? ROSKILL ELECTOR.
