Tlie Post says that the cretion of a now electoral district to he known as Wellington suburbs, raises the question as to what will be the position of affairs in connection with the licensing poll. Under the City Single Electorates Act three Wellington seats then existing (North, Central, and East), were constituted one electorate for the licensing poll purposes, Newtown being a separate electorate for those purposes. Now, however, the city has been divided up into four electorates (North, Central, blast, and South), and the old Newtown seat is called Wellington South, it appears likely that as Newtown was a separate electorate for licensing purposes 111 190-3 it will expect to be so regarded under the altered conditions, and the Rev. F. W. Isi'.t secretary of the New Zealand Alliance, when ispoken to on the subject, ■•onhrmed that impression. It is understood that .Mr A. R. Atkinson will be a candidate for the Suburbs seat next election The success of a lecent piose-ution by the Canterbuiy Acclunatisatio i Society for illegally taking trout, was in no small meisiue due to a peculiar situation which close among three poachers. It appears that after their trifling with the law their reward was two fish. The “haul” was divided into two parts, and tin third mail had to go without, with the lestilt that that pe<son turned King’s evidence, and the two wdio shared the spoil were fined. Another fish v oil id probably have saved the situation. ; DON’T COUGH ALL NIGHT. Restful sleep follows the Use of Dr. Sheldon’s New Discovery. :Tlie best Lung remedy in the vraLlJ „Smnii.
