The- burgesses of Hawera appear to be taking matters pretty cooly. -A*-the last election for a--__u_eill_fUhe office went a-beggine, and the- fiest man that could be persuaded was put iv witho.uf /o-iposi,-tion:: this' in tne face' of ia -'most egregious blunders ever? made b/ a public body. Already more than one quarter of the year's rates have- been, absorbed in law, and the litigation appear as yet in.its infancy. Some silly- people talk of retaliating upon the lawyer councillor, who,; they say, had ne. business to sit in the. council when the subject was first under discussion. They, want to raise a fund for purposes of persecution. On the other hand, it is-; said thaf Mj.]C_mpbs;ll will take the case to the Supreme Court. At this the. law/ers. lick their chops, ijor the hawks are not' no'wj picking ' Oaf each ' other's eyes, biit feeding W! -'so sun-ph--' ously, on .the • **atep-*..y <**-', money. ! Now, Mr Mayor/ do ' step fri md settle the matter without- more ado; let Mr Campbell have his rights, . and save the money lpr roads.— Hawera. Star. > • ' .' ;■-'■• I • "■-. '■
