Election News
Wellington, October 24 Mr George Fisher. M. tt.lt. for Welington East in the last Parliament, aldrt*ssed a crjirded meeting of the City electors in the Opera House to night, and was accorded a hearty rote of thanks and confidence. The Manawatu Herald says that Mr Stevens has been traveling through the district nd l.&i received such promises of support that his chances of heading the poll are improving daily. As to Mr Pirani, our contemporary is sarcastic, he says : " Mr Pirani is at present employed injpntting misconceptions as to his intentions, right. This will give him ample work." Mr "Wilson is moving down the coast and the people are pining for his first address. There was a meeting of Mr Macarthur's election committee on Thursday night in Mr Owen's gurvey office, when a more than usually large amount of useful work was done. The " stuffing" of the electoral roU for Rangitikei was carefully examined, and steps will be taken to mitig.ite the evil as much as possible. Mr Hovvlett has issued his address to the Masterton electors. He says his platform is Republican, Atheist, Multhusian, and he is going in for tirenics and the Pahiatua railway. Ib literally seems to be a case of Bryce or " bust " for the Waikato, for we read in the Auckland Star &o:ne of the labour enthusiasts are speaking of trying to get Mr Bust to contest Waikato with Mr Brvce.
