They have, the privilege of electing a licensing committee, and if that privilege is judiciously exercised they surely can rely on the Bench to see that .the Licensing Act is strictly enforced, awl that only capable men or women of the highest character are to conduct hotels. A strong committee of business- men was also elected to promate the objects of the meeting in its endeavors to gain restoration for Masterton electorate.
