RICCARTON AND GREATER CHRISTCHURCH.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE TRESS. Sir.—As a person is going round asking the rats payers if they would sign a petition to bring a large portion of the Ritcarton Road Board district- into the scheme of Greater Chrisuhurch. I would like to caution them, before -signing such n petition, first to jerious'.y consider the effect of it, in the lorni of largely inerejt.wt rates, based on unimproved values, without any adequate or compensating advantages. Having once committed themeefves there would L>e no getting out. ot it. The only part of the district th:it might be inclined to join u< the populous part of Addition, ivlio.se interests are not identical with the other parts of the Kiccaxton district.—Yours, etc.. RATEPAYER.
