DEPUTATIONS TO HON. MR DICK.
Dunedin, This day. A deputation of city clergymen waited on the Hon. Mr Dick yesterday to urge that the Industrial School should not be shifted <o Seacliff, nearly thirty miles from Dnucdin, where tho children would be out of the way of receiving religious instruction. Mr Dick admitted the force of tho objection, and promised that no steps for the removal of tho school should be taken in the meantime. To-day tho City Council waited on the Hon. Mr Dick with the view of ascertaining if the Government would take charge of the Fire Brigades Bill promoted by the Corporation, and if the Government would also promote the taking of twenty-five acres of the town belt for cemetery purposes. Mr Dick replied that neither the Government nor himself would introduce tho first bill. As to tho second he would consult his colleagues, but had doubts about it, as to grant tho request would require them to act similarly towards other boroughs in the same circumstances.
