In connection with the forthcoming Town Board elections at Upper Hutt, a representative body of electors waited during the past week on Mr. R. H. Webb and Dr. F. W. Kemp, sitting members of the board, to request them to allow themselves to be nominated for re-election.: Mr. Webb had decided not to stand, and for business reasons felt compelled to give a rofusal to the deputation, _but in view of the strong re-, presentations made and the general- nature of tho desire that he should stand, ho agreed to Teeonsider his decision. Later, he notified his willingness to accede to the wishes of the deputation. Dr. Kemp had also decided not to offer himself for re-electiou, but tho deputation persuaded him to postpono his final decision, and is hopeful of a favourable answer during this week-end. ' Messrs.
