Manawatu Herald. THURSDAY, MAY 10, 1906. A FINAL REMINDER.

Ip we are to take last night’s meeting as a guide, the attendance certainly does not indicate that polling will be very heavy at the Mayoral election to-morrow. Still it is our duty to once again remind burgesses that a poll is to be taken, and in the interests of the Borough every vote should be recorded. All three candidateseem to have a popular following, and the figures should be close. Mr Simpson lias previously held office, and burgesses have something to go on when considering his qualifications, Mr Baker has represented us on Council and School Committee to some effect, while Mr Gray (who preferred not to sneak publicly) has a similar qualification. No enmity has existed between the three candidate-- throughout the contest, an 1 we trust that good feeling wi! 1 continue when Mr Alf. Fraser, Returning Officer, calls the result to-morrow night.

Much fun was caused over part of M r Baker’s speech last evening. Ths sneaker said he would be in favour of forming a committee to consider planting of willows at.the river bank. This raised the question of whether these willows should be set horizontal or perpendicular, and after much debate, Air Raker preferred to leave the matter to the said committee.

i A brief meeting of the Foxton Foot ball Sub-Union was held at Laiug’s TTobl t evening. when there were oresont’: \ she,! boh, S. Wright, and F. G, hulr-rland. Messrs .T.

In this week’s “ Press ” is a photographic copy of the Awahou Football Club, of last year. In the critique, apnoats the startling announcement that “ J. Joe received the congra'illations of the spectators, whilst Joe Jillett also

came in for a well-earned share of praise, for not only filling the offices of secretary and treasurer, bu; playing in every, match.”

The New Zealand Rugby Union has d -elded, with regard to its credit balance of over £12,000, “ that T6OOO be invested on fixed den iat and the balance be loaned to allihated unions offering good security at 2£ per cent,” The amount put on fixml d -v-git is to b ■ held in view of the probable visit of i i E iglFh team in 1900. and he necessity of gauraatceuig Mi the exp -uses. “Just now the M’aorilaacier dominates everything,” says the Bulletin. “ His blessed Stead came over and cleared out the bookmaker; his footballers have broken the world’s record in the way of a successful tour; he is borrowing faster than anyone else in Australasia; and now Arnst has scooped our biggest cycling prize. In fact, the oarth is just now, the •Maorilanders.’’ Then the crumb of comfort, “ Bar one thing—be can’t play cricket worth a cuss.” ft is a singular fact that most fish'™am are unable to swim. The Lovvev*oft Collector of Custom-, who held an inquiry concerning the drowning" at sea of i fisherman who had never learned to sum, said that thi . was the case in

i arly every investigation ne had held Vs a matter of fact, a strong prejudice ag dust swimmi g exists among fisher ■u 1 !. It is ba*-J on the belief tuar. h ib'e to swim they would, on falling ivorboard or getting wrecked, keep themselves afloat, arid so prolong the agonies of drowning.

Rather an amusing incident occurred at last night’s meeting, of ratepayers. It was ovor a question put to Mr Simpson, re the transferring of moneys ac o ruing from one reserve being spent on another. Mr Simpson’s main conF irion was that it was right, wlwn M>Hennessy chimed in with " 1 would never rob Fetor to pay Paul.” Thor noon. Air Simpson said tnat there mnv Vi -i chance of the b'inkrup r reserve r - paying tenfold, whereupon Mr Hennessy was equal to the humourous occasion by replying “ Paul never paid.” Loud laughter.

Defective Sexton, of the Melbourne polic' l , was charged biforo sup >rinfmi. ■hint Mihonv the other day with having supplied false information to a week! \ newspaivu*; and of having broken a departmental order by speaking disparagingly of his comrades. Detective St'xt m made a statement in which he 10-iied the charges, but Mr Mahony sal 1 'hat ho consider 'd tbit fbov bad b• “i proved. He ordered lint Sex'on shrml ! be fined t'2 and forfeit his pav for the peri d he had been suspended. He also recommended that Sexton should b > removed to the country.

\ heated moment or two was re-co'-de 1 at last night’s meeting it the Masonic Hall, during which naught

ref -rouce was made to our Council. Mr Baker, in his speech, had almost taken credit for personally interviewing flv Premier and bringing matters of Inca'
