At the Magistrate’s Court, Greymouth, yesterday, appearing on remand, Albert Fredrick Clarke, 50, was charged that, on April 15, at Westport, with intent to defraud, he obtained from Lawrence Johnson the sum of £8 12s, by means of a valueless cheque drawn on the Commercial Rank of Australia, Westport. Accused, who was not represented by counsel, pleaded guilty, and elected to be dealt with summarily. Sergeant Hodgins said accused had a long list of convictions but he thought that drink was his whole trouble. He had spent all the money he obtained on the cheque, and had no money to make restitution. Asked if he had anything to sav, defendant, asked that he be treated leniently, lie bad a job to go back to. and was prepared to take out a prohibition order against himself. The Magistrate said that unfortunately accused had a very long list, including eight convictions for false pretences. He would be sentenced to three months’ imprisonment in the Greymouth prison.

At present, though the fact is yet scarcely realised no industry in Westland county employs more men than gold mining, but so far there has not been anything like an adequate organisation to, maintain the rights and advance the interests of the men who are engaged in the industry since its revival. Becently indications have been given that the need for such an organisation is urgent, and the meeting at Woodstock to-morrow evening is being held in view of this fact.
