The Date of the Elections.
— o Per Press Association. Wellington, This Day. After returning from Hawke'a Bay, the Premier will address his constituents at Hokitika, for which place he leaves about 15th. The Government are still unable to fix a positive date for the elections, and nothing is likely to be done till the rolls are printed. Parliament will then be formally dissolved and the writs issued. There is a prevailing impression the election will take place either on December 2nd or 9th, because these days fall on the Wednesday half holiday, but under the Amended Electoral Act the polling day is a general half holiday, and it does not follow either of these dates will be chosen. __^^___«^____
