THE ELECTORAL ROLL.
WELLINGTON, Aug. 17. The Chief Electoral Officer states that the Electoral Act gives the Registrar of Electors authority to authorise any person to witness the signatures of persons applying for registration as electors. To facilitate the work of the political and licensing organisations Registrars have been instructed that accredited agents of political and licensing organisations may be given this authority in certain cities and boroughs. Where street numbers have been altered by the municipal authorities, it has been found necessary to make many adjustments to the rolls, f°’ which purpose letter carriers, by reason of their local knowledge, have been employed. The Electoral Department is not employing clerks to collect applications for enrolment.
