The action of the Rabbit Board yesterday in deciding not to collect any but tho first instalment on the stock owners list of 1889, is an act of justice that should bo appreciated by many of tho ratepayers, who were being charged on a numbor of sheep not in their possession at the time this rate was struck.

The lino weather experienced of late bus enabled shearing to be puehed throush very quickly in the Castlepoint district this season, All the coast stations north of the Point have completed tho work. Inland, Messrs Williams and Boctbam and Maunsell Bros, have also finished. The clip in every instance is exceedingly gond, and the condition of the wool and sheep are excellent. Tho clip as a whole is the heaviest known in the district for many years. Tho heavy' nor'-weßt winds, unaccompanied here with rain, which prevailod a few weeks ago, have had. a bad effect on the pastures, and rain would now bo very welcomo to most of tho squatters and farmers, Mr Wni Murdoch, of Eketahuna, who belongs to the Hogg school of journalism publishes tho following chaste and heautifuj letter;—"J- notice in tho poluums of the Diav of 22nd inst, a report of Mr Hogg's speqeh at Ekotahuna, Such garbled mis-Rtatements I never boforo saw or heard of, It is useless to argue with the Daily's reporter here, to handy words! with him in-print pukl be utter folly, If Ajiinij&i were to ariso he oould finish his approutioeahip with tho Daim's Eketahuna reporter. Tudger's Social Club boasts that they can produce tho biggest liar on record, and about two months ago thoy unanimously awarded tho card to thcDAiw's correspondent, He states in his account that a vote of thanks only to Mr Hogg was carried, ' I say distinctly that a vote of -confidence was carried by a large majority, and I think that there aro scores in Eketahuna who will bear me out in this. Ho. also hides tho fact that there wero over 200 at Mr Hogg's meet, mg, and that Mr Hong, was loudly applauded throughout, and his statement as to hisses is a base fabrication. Mr Hogg, unlike Mr Beetham, told- the settlors how money was wasted iu pensions and sinecures whilst Bottlers wore struggling to theneck in mud, Mr Beetham pnly told the settlers that lie pa sorry ty see them skuggljug so hard, but forgot about the sineourps and pensions the Atkinson Government had oroated, A eeoond correspondent in tho columns ol thoDAiwr writes on the same' dale about Mr Hogg.-Todger's Club is auxious to know this correspondent as the Daily's reporter will rcqniro to give linn tho card. In conclusion I might state thatthe only disturbing in tjie meeting were a fow sycophants who flicker round and lick the feet of wealth.
