POLITICAL.
The Hon. W. Rolleston, member for Avon, and Minister for Lands, addressed his constituents at Papanui on Saturday night. There was a large and demonstrative audience, and the speaker was frequently' interrupted. At the conclusion of the address the following resolution was carried—‘ That this meeting has no confidence in the Hon. Wm. Rolleston as representative of the Avon district in Parliament.’ This resolution was carried, but it is only fair to state that not more than a third of those present voted for it although very few hands were held up against it. Besides Messrs Richardson and Saunders, a third candidate will, it is said, contest the Kai ipoi seat.
