ELECTORAL REFORM.
NEW ZEALAND ENQUIRING.
Christchurch, Jan. 29.
The Hon, F. M. B. Fisher, in the course of a chat with a reporter to-night, remarked that in view ot the interest being manifested throughout the Dominion at present in the question of electoral reform, and in order to obtain first-jiaud and up-to-date information as to the workings of the proportional voting system in Tasmania, he instructed Mr F. W. Mansfield, Chief Electoral Officer for New Zealand, to be present at the recent elections in Tasmania. Mr Mansfield was to have granted to him by the Tasmanian Government full access to see the inner workings of the system. Upon Mr Mansfield’s return to the Dominion he will report to the Hon. Mr Fisher, and it is hoped that his report will contain much valuable and interesting information.
