Beck, and seconded by Mr W. Grindloy. Mr George Clark, in the absence of any other nomination, declared Mr James Hazlett duly elected. Mr Hazlott,in a few appropriate remarks, expressed his sense of tho honor conferred upon him by the ratepayers in electing him for the third time Mayor of Clyde. During the past two years he had honestly striven to advance the interest of the town and district, and would continue to do so in the future* With regard to the statement in the Dunstan Times, " that during the past year tho Council had dono nothing," he migTit say that it must be • apparent to the ratepayers that it had done a good deal. He concluded by thanking the ratepayers for the confidence placed in him, and which, he said, was amply manifested by the fact that he had been re-elected without opposition.—(Applause.)
