Telegraphic Despatches.
(Press Association.) Dunedijt, May 28. Mr. Macandrew has just issued a manifesto to the people. He says the electors will be told that the present difficulty has solely arisen through a grasping after power by himself. This, he asserts, is utterly untrue. It would probably have been well for the province had the constitutional power of the Superintendent been exercised with a firmer hand. He refers to the useless wasteful struggles which have lately taken place in the Council, and says the sooner they have done with playing at Parliament the better. The province cannot afford it, nor is it worth the money. If the electors are true to their own interests, they will return men who will make it a point to transact the necessary business with expedition. If so, the Council need not extend over fourteen days. Tuapeka Railway tenders are opened, but not yet decided upon. Several of them, it is rumored, are under the engineers' estimate. Roxburgh, May 28. There was a large attendance at the ploughing match. The competitors numbered five. The weather fine.
