MAGISTRATE'S AND WARDEN’S COURTS CLYDE.
( Condensed from Hansard.) Mr. Bradshaw asked the Hon. the Premier; Whether it is the intention of the Government to remove the Resident Magistrate’s and Warden’s Courts, and also the D'strict Court, from the Town of Clyde, where they are now held and have been held for many years, to the neight bearing Town of Blacks, on the Goldfields in the Province of Otago ? lie hal recently presented t"0 petitions from the Town of Clyde and the Town of Blacks, which were referred to the Public Petitions Committee, who reported that the matter should be left to Executive action. The people of the district were very anxious to know what course the Government intended to take. Mr. Fox said that the difficulties to which the honorable member alluded were, he believed, the result of some little ex. citeracnt and alarm arising from what had taken place in that House ; but apart from the petitions referred to, the Government had received no representati ns from the district. The question was not one upon which they should take action without local advice, and the Government had therefore no intention of moving in the matter at present.
