THE OAMARU SEAT.
ELECTION TAKES PLACE TODAY. The election for the Oamaru seat takes place to-day. Both parties continue confident, but the general opinion is that the contest will be close, and that, the result is doubtful. The fact that throughout the electorate nearly 1,100 names of persons who did not vote in December, have been added to the roll renders speculation as to the result, based upon the General Election figures, unsafe. Both sides claim a majority of these new votes, but both cannot be right. Mr T. M. Wilford, Leader of the Opposition, and Mr J. A. MaePherson, the Liberal candidate, addressed a tinge audience at the Drill Hall last night.
