CORRESPONDENCE.
THE.UPPeYtAUERUKOAJ). [to the editor wairarapa daily.] Sir,—l am sure Mr Vile will be glad to find that the bridge over the Taueru is only to cost £7OO, nndrlv.trußt lie will be one of the first to drive his bugey over It. A large portion of ihe money granted by Government- is to be spent in making a eood road from Bowlands to. Mr Vile's property, an item of the expenditure which appears to have escaped lus memory. Tba question to be.decided by the ratepayersion the 2nd of May ig this: "Will you or will you not accept tho ±"2,600 offered by the Government" to be spent on your road V If they vote " Yes" they will have, the £2,600. spond on the road, If they vote "No" they will not only not get their £2,6CjO, but they will lose the remaining fills, which would complete all the metalling; and other work'Mr tile bo much d6sired.- But to Mr'.. Vile and • my brother' ratepayers I would Bay "Let us first secure the money and then diacnas the expenditure." lam quite certain that the County Council will hear anything Mr Vile has to sa'y, and he may rest assured that (Here his been no attempt on my part nor as far as I am Wre, on that of any other parson to nrge'nn the Council; any particular application of the money. Whatever has been done : is purely the spontaneous act of the Council and their Engineer. ' : ' ':. l:'- :lamj&o., ■;.■■,-;.; . : 'i ;ROBERTAS;'HaWKIKS. ;? Mastertpn^MthiApril ;.
