Charitable Aid Board.—At a meeting: of the Otago Charitable Aid Board it was decided to refuse the whole of the requisition from the Benevolent Trustees and vote only a sum equal to one-tenth of the estimate of annual expenditure forwarded by the trustees. The board recently failed to pay when demanded the amount claimed as due to the industrial school, Caversham, and the Government intercepted the amount due as the subsidy to partly liquidate the debt. The board has now made reprisal by resolving that it has no funds to pay a further and larger claim made on behalf of the school.—The members of the board are evidently afraid to do their duty. The Boards of Review.—The following are the Boards of Review of Assessment under the Act of 1801 for Canterbury. —(1) Hugh Boyd, Rangiora ; Samuel Coleman Broomfield, and John EUwood, Ashley. (2) Charles Louisson, Christchurch; William Thomson, Christchurch; Frederick Trent, Christchurch. (3) James Cunningham, Springfield ; Frederick Overton. Leeston; John Rennie, Doyleston.

Several boards have not yet been appointed. Major Steward at Waimate. —Major Stewart addressed his constituents at Waimate on Wednesday evening last. In the course of his remarks he referred to the change in the incidence of taxation as the chief feature in the session, showing that the land tax would fall more lightly upon farmers and small landowners than the property tax did, and that the large landowners would have to pay more than under the old system. Mr Rolleston came in for a share of praise at Mr Steward's hands as being the originator of the perpetual leasing system. Mr Steward was in favour of one-mau-one-vote, There should be one-man-one-registration. He was in favour of woman suffrage, and of complete local option with regard to licensing, provided that failing provision for compensation fair notice would be given, as for instance the passing of an Act to come into force 5 years hence. He was in favour of bible reading in schools, the same as was done in the Board schools of England, under a time table and conscience clause, and of payment by result in Catholic schools. He concluded by a reference to the change in the electorate under the redistribution, and ini mated that it was probable that when an election took place he would be a candidate for the Waitaki seat and of which the Southern half of the old Waimate seat formed part. A vote of thanks and con- t fidence was unanimously passed.
