ELECTORAL CENSUS.
REMEDYING A BUNGEE.
WELLINGTON, Oct, 17
The Legislature Amendment Bill (No. 3) embodies a remedy for the bungling of the electoral rolls occasioned by the electoral census. It proposes that the Registrar of any electoral district shall not object to names on electoral rolls because they were not included in the electoral census of the district and that names removed for this reason shall be restored to the rolls unless there is other reason for striking them off. The effect of this Bill is the complete nullification ot the electoral census aud the removal into the category of unprofitable expenditure of the money expended on the census. Provision is also made iu the Bill, as iu the Local Elections and Polls Amendment Bill, that every elector who on the close of the poll of a Parliamentary election is at present in a polling place for the purpose of voting shall be allowed to record a vote.
