PARAWAI WARD AGAIN.
(To the Editor of the Evening Stab.) Sir, —Dr Kilgour, like all other political doctors, has no thought at all for the poor patients under his care, but only for his own self. By what right has Dr Kilgour at all to disfranchise those of the thirteen Parawui ratepayers who have paid their rates, by preventing the late Parawai Ward being, with its ratepayers, absorbed into, some one of the Wards at the next meeting of the Borough Council. The Burgess Bolls for the new year commenc- ! ing in June are advertised to be completed Jby the 15th of, this mouth (April). If we (ratepayers of Parawai) don't get put J into some Ward or other before the loth, [ we shall remain as we are, id a Ward for which no elections can tafte place, and all to please Dr Kilgour. I don't see what he has got to do with us at all; he is member for the Middle Ward, not Parawai. I hope the other members of the Borough Council will prevent this great wrong being done to us. pay our rates, and have a right, by our votes, to have our say in the welfare of the place. —I am, &c, Pabawai Batbpayee.
