RESIGNATION DEMANDED. LIVELY TIMES AT GREY LYNN. By Telegraph—Press Association. Auckland, March 18. A resolution demanding the resignation of Mr. John Payne of his seat a& member for Grey Lynn was carried by a very large majority at a meeting held by him this evening. "I am going to ignore all such resolutions," was Mr. Payne's retort. "I defy you and your resolutions! lam goin'oto stay in that House just so lono- as it enables me to prove what I ami" Fully 500 people were present, and the proceedings were even more stormily demonstrative than at the first meeting addressed by Mr. Payne. ° The chairman of his election committee again presided, and there was much animosity displayed against the lengthy statements which he frequently made from the chair. An active part was taken by Mr. J H. Bradney, M.P. for Auckland West', and Mr. W. H. Murray, Mayor of Grey Lynn.
