MR RDDY

Sydney, September 16 A large and influential deputation of business men waited on Mr Eddy and asked bim, in the interests of commerce and the public generally, to accept a re-engagement. They gave united praise to his zeal, ability, suc cessful control and sound development of the railways, and hoped they would not again be handed over to weak and inefficient control and political in fluence. Mr Eddy replied that he had had several interviews with the Premier, and everything was practi cally arranged, and it was almost agreed upon that he would accept re-appointment.

The New Fruit Duty.

Sydney, September 16 The imposition duty by New Zealand on fruit has caused consternation among the local fruit exporters. A preliminary meeting was held to-day to consider the matter, and the deputa tion, will probably wait on the Govern ment to-morrow to urge them to use their influence against the immediate levy of the duty. In the course of the interview the leading importers said they considered they had been unfairly treated in not receiving notice of the nevr departure. Jf duties had been witheld till January, that would have given them time to arrange business, but the suddenness simply involved them in a loss, and would bring ex portation to New Zealand to a stand still. This was more likely to be the case at the present time owing to the drought, which gives a good market locally, and in Melbourne for all orchards likely to yield. The Tekapo sailed on Saturday without consign ments from the small shippers who could not stand the loss. The larger dealers fulfilled their engagements at their own expense. It is stated the new duty means two shillings per case, which will ruin the trade with New Zealand, _____________

THE SOUTH AUSTRALIAN GOVERNORSHIP.

Adelaide, September 16 The South Australian Registrar, com menting on the reduction of the Go vernor's salary, says it is doubtful whether the proposal may not contra vene the rules of fair play and consti tute a breach of an honourable obligation. The understanding be tween the Colonial Office and Sir F. Buxton was that the salary, with allowances, should be £5000, but there, was never an unequivocal understand ing that Sir F. Buxton would be will ing to havfe t|ie emoluments whittle^ tiown to any extent the local author ities rofght please to order. The reduc tion dqes not mean only _£tOQO, but Including allowances it represents be tween £3000 or £4000 compared with the salary a few years ago. Sir F. Buxton's willingness to accept the reduction only proves him to be a rich man but if in the future the colony should have to make shift with an inferior vice-regent because he is wealthy an important democratic principle will be violated.

THE GENUINE NEW WOMAN. The latest enlistment under the 'New Woman's' banner is Mrs Gamble, of Howard Queensland.

If this fo what is meant by the ' New Woman' no husband $an object, for not oply is her happi- BBSS enhanced, but his comfort; for what is more conducive to home comfort than a cheerful, energetic, contented, healthy wife ? She writes: "Having been a martyr to indigestion for several years, from which I was mercifully cured by the use of WarnerV. Safe Cure, I desire to publicly make known the facta, ao that others may be induced to use it, and thus take a short cut to health.
