BOROUGH STABLES.
Sir,—ln your last issue I read with interest your report on the borough stables. It seems scarcely credible that a strong protest by fifty genuine ratepayers could be set aside and utterly ignored by a small body of men in temporary power. Does the public of Paeroa stand for this sort of thing? Wake up, ratepayers! If the reasonable objections of fifty people can be trampled on, what is to save tne remainder of you from being ridden over roughshod while your domain is grabbed for stables and your property is going as security for loans which are of no benefit to you, and your rates used up for buying sections and reserves instead of repairing footpaths and cleaning out the choked drains ? You want to he stirring before it is too late. Look round and see for yourselves that all these loans —no matter how plausibly worded —mean that you have to shoulder the entire payments, while the borrow’ers ride in cars and will not lift a finger to help you. SQUARE DEAL.
