BAD TO WORSE.
Referring to the failure of the Minister for Public .'Works to expend the votes for roads last year, the Taranaki Herald says:— It will be noticed that in 1908-9 the expenditure was If airly well up to the amount voted by Parliament. Mr A. W. Hogg then had charge of the Roads Department, and he was in thorough earnest in his efforts to helip the ibackblook settlers. Since then it has gone from bad to .worse, and last, year out of £170,250.v0ted under all heads only £74,708 was. spent, or about 44 ,per cent, of the total. Is this fair to the settlers?
