THE WELLINGTON-MANAWATU RAILWAY COMPANY.
We notice that the Engineer of the WellingtonsMnnawatu Railway Company, Limited, carefully ignores our claims for a share of the advertising patronage of the Company. This is the more remarkable in a recent case of adrertising for tenders for sleepers. The advertisements appear in two papers representing districts which have only one sawmill between them, and the Feilding Star, which represents a district containing eight sawmills, that cut upwards of 1,000,000 feet per month, does not receive a single line of advertisements. Moreover, Feilding is the ouly place on the whole length of railway line that is capable of undertaking large sleeper contracts. We would be sorry to believe that there was anything behind this studied omission. We publish in another part of this paper a letter from " Totara Knot" on the subj-ct.
