ROADS AND BRIDGES.
MR HOGG ASTONISHED. . Mr A. W. Hogg, M.P., writes as follows to the Evening Post:—! am •astonished rather than amused that you have betrayed by a statement made in Parliament by the present Minister of Public Works into commenting on the expenditure on roads and bridges during the time that I presided over the Roads Department. Considering that the expenditure on roads, etc., for the settlers for the year was only about £300,000, and the Minister alleged I was spending at that rate per month, the value of his figures might have appealed to the weakest judgment.
