RAILWAY STATION FOR CLAREVILLE.
[The Editor Wairarapa Daily.] Sir.—Will you kindly insert the following letter. Some time ago the Government acquired about one hundred and [twenty pounds worth of land at Clareville, free, of charge, foy the purpose of erecting a railway station) but at present there is not the least sign of. a station, and the winter will soon set in. There are a good many .passengers to and from that place, and it is a very serious matter-to have to.wait in the rain, and then to travel with wet clothes. IftEink it quite time the authorities turned their attention to this state of things. They are ready enough to make us pay Property Tax, but they are.not so ready to studythe comfort and interests'of the people. If they did : not intend giving us a station why did they accept' the land? It seems they have found money to enlarge the Carterton station, where there is ample-room; but the, inhabitants of.ClarevwV seem ;beneath\ their, notice. T sincerely tope this will not last long; '.■.".';• v.!: ■••f" : K, '■ : '" : "'\ : ':. '•l.ami'&c,': '.j.- ;.':;;• ,;-!,•■.■ A.Ci.ABEVn.LESeTILER, .\':
