Certain detractors of the Government have attempted to make capital out of the circumstance that some of the lines of railway authorised by Parliament will run through or near the property of Ministers. The " Hawke's Bay Herald" says that from some recent paragraphs in the " Evening Post" and in the " Telegraph," the public would naturally be led to believe that the Napier and Paid Paki railway was intended to run through MrOrmond's property. We need hardly say that this is not the case. As at present laid out, it does not run within several miles of it. The decision of the Waste Lands Board of Otago, not to verify the sale of land to Mr Clark, has induced the latter to place the matter in the hands of the Supreme Court.
