MASONS’ WAGES.
To the Editor. Sib,— ln your last night’s issue my eye haply caught the City Police Court, and on coming to the case of pocket-picking I found that Mr Bastings said it was a well-known fact that stone-masons tip-country oculd earn a pound a-day. Now, I hare no doubt that many a stone-mason will feel relieved at these gracious words falling from that gentleman’s lips, and if Mr Bastings will kindly take the trouble to state through your columns in what place upcountry those wages are to bo had, he will quiet our fears of want, and brighten our hopes for the future. If you will kindly insert this In a corner of your paper you may be the means of bringing us good news.—l am, 4c,, A .Stobx-mabov, Dunedin, July 21.
