Mr R. J. Seddon delivered his first address to Kumara electorates last night at the Empire Hotel, Diliman’s Town. There was a large and attentive audience. Mr F. Barrowman was voted to the chair. At the conclusion of Mr Seddon’s address a vote of thanks and confidence in him as a fit and proper person to represent Kumara in the new Parliament was unanimously carried, there being not a single dissentient. A report of the speech will be given in another issue. Mr A. R. Guinness gave his first address to the electorates of Greymouth at Foley’s Hotel, Westbrook, last evening. Mr Maloney occupied the chair. Like Mr Seddon, Mr Guinness is an opponent of the Atkinson Ministry. At the conclusion of his address a motion by Mr Tansey, seconded by Mr M'Namara, that Mr Guinness was a fit and proper person to represent their constituency in Parliament was carried unanimously. We shall give a report in another issue. Mr Guinness addresses the electors at Greenstone this evening, and Marsden to-morrow evening. Mr Joseph Dove late Captain of the Volunteer Fire Brigade, left Kumara yesterday afternoon for Hokitika, en route to Melbourne by the Zephyr.
