A letter was re»d from the Council's Solicitor, enquiring if they desired to take tjfie matter of Mr Ward's costs to appeal The Chairman stated the question had •ripen as a result of the ruling of the Supreme Court that; the Council must par the Returning Officer's expenses. Mr Harper moveu that the case be taken to appeal. Mr Wright objected to taking this trivial matter to appeal. Judgment had been against the Council in the S,M. and Supreme Conrts. and it would be unwise to iaour further expenditure on a master that could be settled for £20 It would now be an expensive matter to get leave, In the first place, to appeal. Re thought It would bear a color oi persecution if the Council went further, and the result might Cost £200. and no doubt the Act be amended to avoid disputes in future. Mr Grigg thought no feeling of perse cution entered into the Council's action, aod although he should like to see the gueation settled by the highest authority, c was not in favor of going to the Appeal Court.

The Chairman said It was not a question of £ s. d; to his mind, but one of prin ciple, and he thought the Council should know its position if it had to go to appeal. He thought there could be no question of persecution in the matter. He would rapport Mr Harper's motion on principle On Mr Harper's motion being put it was negatived. (Left sitting.)

Eor thirty years he worked on the Murray River as a fisherman and general laborer under different names, including that of Tichborne. When asked if he was any relation to the celebrated Tichborne claimant he said he might be.

After Band of Mahonga died, Tassain discovered his son in the present claimant for the estate. Band was sentenced to tlirae months' Imprisonment. •■

IHE ASHBORTON GUABDIAS 8 FBIpAT, APRIL 5, 1895



<">n the termination of the Bakaia sale o i Thursday last, Mr A. W. Steele informed those in attendance that, as it wax his last appearance on the rail as a salesman, owing to his leaving the Loan and Mercantile Agency Company, he wished to thank the farmers of the dis trict for the support they had accorded him as the Company's agent, and for the encouragement they had given him as a private individual during the short time he had been in the district. He stated that he had never sought popularity, but trusted he would leave no enemies behind him. One farmer had threatened to take off his coat, but they had <*oon buiied the hatchet and were the best of friends. With regard to the rumor that the Company was cosing its offices at Bakaia and Ashburton, Mr Steels said he could not deny the truth of that; rumor, but as a matter of common sense he did not think the Company would neglect so important a district, and one In which its business had lately been steadily increasing. He advised faimers, therefore, who were well disposed towards the Company, to wait and see what arrangements would be made. In old days the Company bad often spent 30s to get a £1. It now wanted at least £1 for every 20s tpent.
