A locil resident laid an information for jigumy agaicst his wife, a woman apparently about 25 years of age, alleging that she was married at Oamaru five years ago. Four times a remand was granted on the application of counsel for the prosecutor, who did not appear personally, the last time she Justices dismissing the case for want of prosecution, with four guineas costs. Prior to dismissal the bergeant of Police received a warrant on an information laid at Oamaru by the same prosecutor, with a request that she be ar'restud and remanded to Oamaru. The Justices on Friday remanded the case till Saturday, when Mr Greenfield, 8.M., refused a remand to Oamaru, aud remandad the accused for one week.

Docbrill, the present Mayor, has consented to be nominated for another term, Mr Dockrill has filled the position in a very creditable manner, and undoubtedly has the confidence of the great majority of the people of the Borough. In the present position of affdrs a steady, safe, and cautious hand on the helm is very necessary. There are those who are very anxious to see the Borough rush into a reckless expenditure of borrowed money, There is no doubt the town is at a very criticai period of its history. It is waking up from its long period of comparative inactivity, and progressing in a manner that is absolutely astonishing. New buildings are going up in all directions and its streets are beginning to show little time at his disposal, Mr Mclndoe got the 'bus as far out of the way as possible, or more serious consequences would have ensued. The approach of the winter season is evidenced by the activity of the vendois of patent specifics for treatment of colds and kindred ills. It in astonishing how easily money may be saved and valuable time gained by resiurce to such a well tried remedy as Sykes' Citra jCough, which has for years been before the public, and on its merits came to be recognised as the most important article in every household during the winter months. So much depeads on nipping a cold in the bud, that it pays to have a remedy ready to hand when wanted. HOLLO WAY'S PILLS AND OINTMENT < Reliable remedies.

It is hardly necessary to say that under these cir- ' cumstances demands are being made on the Borough Council for new works improvements and extension of streets etc., that were never contemplated two years ago. The result is that the loau proposals deemed sufficient then arc quite inadequate now, and thera is no doubt the whole scheme originally adopted requires This bting so, the next twelve months wil be one of serious responsibility anc likely to tax the skill and energy of the Borough Council to the fullest extent To change the presiding officer of tin 1 Council fjust now would be equivalent to swapping horses in the middle of the stream. In consenting to bo nominated for another term Mr Dockrill has only done so after serious consideration, and is consulting the wishes o others rather than his own, as his desire was to retire at the end of this term. Having consented, we hope to see him returned unopposed, as no one tendency to rheumn ism and similar paftful disorder*, whi st the Ointment cures the local ailment.
