REGISTRATION OP ELECTORS ACT.

Sib, — The thanks of all Chairmen and Secretaries of Road Boards are due to the Times for calling their attention to the Registration of Elector's Act, 1875, as they had not been made aware previously by Gazette or circular of the trap laid for them. Sir, what can we think of men calling themselres legislator! who could pans •uch an act and thui do an injustice to a body of men whose zeal and public spirit has prompted them to do a public service in nearly all eases at much perional trouble and loss of time. The Seoretaries are paid only as much for their services as barely to oover loss of time and in some cases work purely voluntarily, and for Parliament to pus am act imposing a- penalty of £100 to compell them to do what they neve r undertook ii a piece of injustice. If a man undertakes to- bo Seowtary to a Road Board he does not agree to be a fag to every jack in office. In clause 42 of the Highways Act, 1874, you will see that a list of ratepayers has to be published in the Provinsial Government Gazette, another list ba« to be prepared and left for inspection in some public place, and another copy retained in the rate book. These lists entail a large amount of labour, and to ' be continually' asking for information that has been already furnished is to entail expense on the Road Boards, A circular was recived last month by the Road Boards from the Register General asking for statistics on aa many-matter as would fill a small volume, and to furnish which correctly would entail a large amount of thought and labour and if not corrsct they are no use. Do these Gentlemen, asking for this information think Road Board Secretaries can live on air, or that they carry a general register in the crown of their hats.— l am, Sec, Trosxbb.
