The Eon. Dr. Pollen stated in the Legislative Council that 95,000 Aduw Males pay the whole of this colony's taxation, maintains its Oil Service, run its railways and public works and form the nucleus of the colony's prosperity; and yet to this very limited population over 120,000 WatEBBUBIS have been sold and delivered, and t ship ment now landing consists of 2880 Watebbotys which is followed by the Elinor Vernon, due in a month with 2880 Mom, all sold already to the wholesale trade who have been waiting supplies for from threo to four months. Large as these figures are two other shipments are to arrivo beforo Christmas and we venture to aDirm that no other watch can show a sale in New Zealand during the period covered since the Waterbury advent of One to Each Hundred Wateiidubys.
