[united press association.] Dunedin, June 25. At the adjourned meeting of persons interested in the liquor trade to-day two petitions were adopted. The first asked that Parliament may see fit to amend the Licensing Act of 1881, so as to abolish the existing system of Licensing Committees, and have Benches as formerly nominated by the Government. The second asked that the Act be so amended as to abolish the disqualification provisions altogether, and have the punishment of a fine merely, or to leave the question of the endorsement to the discretion of the Magistrates. It was agreed to forward them next Friday to Mr Fish, M.H.R.
