THE RANGITIKEI CLUB. Wellington, Last Night. The Hon. G. W. Russell, Minister of Internal Affairs, received a deputation to-nighi from the Rangitikei Racing Club, asking for a restoration of the totalisator permit taken away as a result of the Racing Commission's report. It was pointed out that the Rangitikei Club was fourteenth in importance in New Zealand. It had been in existence since 1854. The attendance at the last summer meeting was 4500. Bulls, where the Club's course is, and Marton would never amalgamate, as suggested by the Commission, those towns having nothing in common. The" Club had recently spent £B6OO on land and buildings. The Minister, in reply, said that the matter would be considered by the Cabinet. If it was decided that the question of peri mits was to be reviewed, there could be no doubt that the case of the Rangitikei Club must be entitled to very careful consideration.
