(per press association.) Wellington and Christchurch Communication. Wellington, This Day. The first annual dinner of the Canterbury Society of Wellington was held last night, the Hon Walker presiding. In the course of a speech the Premier said that the time was not far distant when Christchurch would be brought within six hours of Wellington. The importance of these centres demanded it and when the North Trunk line was complete, a ferry service to Picton and a railway to Cheviot completed, such result would be attained. Proposal for a State Bank. Ddnedin, This Day. At the close of Mr Ellis’ meeting a resolution was carried that in view of the growth of the public debt both of the Government and local bodies the Government should assume the functions of banking and that meetings should be organised to evoke public interest in the question of a state bank.
