A CONTRACTOR'S COMPLAINT.
(to the editor of the standard.) Sir, — I think the public should know that several claims against the Matia watu Road !Board for work done, and whicti were passed for payment at the last meeting of the Board held on Wednesday the 6th inst. still remain unpaid, simply, because Mr Warden Pratt cannot be prevailed upon to attend to' his : duties by signing the necessary chequesHe has been requested by the clerk two or three times to attend to this matter, but without any success, and when a contractor wants his money I believe be has to travel to Fitzherbert to obtain Mr Pratt's signature to a cheque. This gentleman may value his position as Warden, but he should not make working men suffer through his reinissness. — i am,- &c., ■■-...■...■ ■ . Fair Play.
