Wellington Election

RETURN OF MR HUTCHE :o\

OVERWHELMING MAJOR!! V

United Preas"AsHoumtion—By fcL-- : Telegraph. Wellington, July 25 The election of a member of the House o Representatives for the City of Wellington «e»t, rendered vacant by the resignation oi Mr John Hutobesoo, who offered himaeif for re-eleotion, took pUce to-day. Mr Hutche son was opposed by Mr E. G. Jelliooe. The following is the official result of the poll : — Hatoheaon , 6945 Jelliooe .. .. .. 4771 Majority for Hutcbeson .. 2174 The polling up to noon was very small, but during the afternoon, and right np lo the close of the poll, the booths wera kepr extremely buisy. The proceedings throughout Iho day were very orderly, and there was an absence o! that keen excitement which usually characterises a Parliamentary elec tion. Both sides were working hard, but the canvassing element waa not quite so pro nounoed an usual. The weather was fine throughout the day, and in the afternoon women voters attended in strong force. In the evening great crowds gathered outßide the newspaper offices, where the returns were displayed as they came to hand, but beyond a little good-natured ch^ff, the crowd preserved good order. Mr Hutcheaon vr>a in a minority at only two booths, being 43 behind his opponent at Victoria Hall (Adelaide road), and one behind at the Criterion Theatre (Manners street). After the float return came to hand, Mr Jelliooe addressed the crowd, thankiug those who had supported him, and stating that probably no candidate for Parliamentary honours had ever had to contend with such sombination as had been brought to bear against, him. Mr Hutchoflnn, in returning thanks, said fcba electors ha-i knocked the shackles off his wrists, and ho would go back to the House a free man, The people that day, by their votes, had proclaimed that they, and not Ministers, were the masters, and his victory would be sounded throughout the colony. July 26 The official figures of the poll were given to-day &« follows:—Mr Hutcheson 6954, Mr Jelliooe 4778.

They will no longT be found. !oite'ing and wasting their money iv questionable ways, and as " the apparel tit denotes the man" they will become more particular in the choice of their tailors.
