BOROUGH AFFAIRS.
Til 'NIK KDlToll. Sill,—lt appears lo be quite recognised now by the majority of Ibe Councillors thai the lime has arrived to cul down expenses, as far as is possible. That being so. I, like Councillor llutehen. inn of opinion Hint the lirsl reduction made should lie the Mayor's honorarium, tloo. When Unit is done, they can then go ahead. Ollicc expenditure will next claim ll|eir attention, as it has been creeping up lo big figures tor sonic time past' The engineer, having finished the works entrusted io him, will nol now have much to occupy his lime, and in Ihe inieresls of the ratepayers a Mihslanlial reduction will be ininle there. Some of the day laborers will also require attention, and, so far as 1 ,ani able to judge, if some of lliein are relieved of llieir work, it will be the ratepayers' gain. Therefore I have no hesitation in saying that a saving of .CUD') a year can very well lie made.--J am, etc., A Ratuivuki;.
