AT THE CHURCH DOOR.
ENROLLING ELECTORS. The announcements made yesterday weak by the authorities of the Roman Catholic Cluirch in Wellington in reference to the organisation of the members of that body into a strong political party, which they hope.will wield considerable power at both municipal and Parliamentary elections, ara already being acted-upon. The first public indication of this was observed yesterday, when, at the conclusion of the services at each of the Roman Catholic-churches, the worshippers were met at the doors with tho question: "Are you on the roll?" If there was•any" doubt about tho matter the roll was then and there turned up, and all doubt one way or the' other was removed. If it was found that a duly qualified person had not taken the precaution to register as a district elector he was at once asked to fill in an application form, which was : duly signed and witnessed by. electors in attendance for that purpose. As few were overlooked, it is anticipated that many hundreds of applications for registration on the new list will be handed in to tha returning officer to-day.
