Proposal to form Devonport into a Borough or Town District.

♦ ci A MBETiita of ratepayers' who had signed a requisition to the Chairman of the Devon port Highway Board, requesting him to take steps to form the Highway District Into a Borough, was held at the Masonic Hotel last evening,—Mr Kdson having been voted to tbe chair, explained that the meeting was merely an informal ene, jor the purpose of putting things into shape for the public meeting to be held on Friday next. Mr Brassey, who was tbe author of the meeting, would explain matters.—Mr G. N. Brassey, after referring to the necessity for ventilating the matter before the public meeting, said, when be became a resident in the district, he came te the conclusion that it was necessary. to take some steps to relieve themselves from the fossilised condition into which they hid fallon under the Highway System. There -ft are two courses open to them, viz, to form tho district Into a a Town District, or into a municipality, The only existing town district In the pro vlnco was Cambridge, but he had not.had an opportunity of ascertaining how that system of local government worked. It would bo for tbe meeting to appoint a corn* mittee to ascertain how the system worked. For his ewn part he would go with the majority. He txdj wished to be re lieved from the' abominable burden ot the Highway Board. For tome time past the rates had been stent fer the improvement of the Melrese estate, the property of Mr mark, the chairman of the board, and ef Mr Alisen,. one of the members. He thought it was their duty to make these people disgorge- It was their duty to improve the sanitary condition of the district by dralnige and a water supply. The Highway District Act gave them no power to borrow. What they wanted now waa to cheose between the town board and mnnicipel systems. The " Town Districts Act" embodied parte 11 and 12 et "The Municipal Corporation Act, 1878." Part 11 dealt with the general power of boards re public works,etc.,and part 12 referred to the passing of bye-laws by boards. — The Chairman said Mr Brassey had given a very fair statement of the posi tion in which they stoid. For his part he was in favour of the Town Districts system. Bo had copies of the Municipal and Corporation and Town Districts Acts, and could give information lespecting tkem. —Mr Wyles took exception to Mr Bratsey'a remark about Devonpo't being in a "fos silised condition." I heir reads would he a credit to any part of the'colony, and the district could be easily drained. H»d they any guarantee that they.would be better dealt with as a municipality tban as a highway district. , They knew that boroughs had mere powers than highway dis trict boards in the matter of borrowing, etc. The Chairman sail that some little time ago, Mr P. A. Phillips, a gentleman well informed in the working of tbe Municipal Corporations Act, commended the Town Districts System to his consideration as a system that would meet their wants; the ex pense being little more than that of working the Highway District System, and nearly all the privileges given, by the Municipal Corporations Act were accorded without tbe paraphernalia of Mayor and Council,— A desultary conversation ensued, in the course of which it was shown that the con stitution of the Town Board would not separate the distiict from, the County; that all elections would require to be conducted under " The Local Elections Act"—doing away with the obnoxious proxy system—and tbat should it be subse quently found that the machinery-given under tne Town Districts Aot was not applicable, there was nothing to hinder the adoption of the Municipal Act.—Mr G. N, Brassey proposed, " That a committee con sisting of Meesrs Edson, Duder, Durance, Glenny, Brassey, O. Mays, Rust, Bartley, PbilcoXj Buchanan, T, L. White, and Trevithick, be formed to collect Informs* tion respecting the Town Districts Act, and report, to tbe meeting on Thursday next, —A vote of thauks to the chairman concluded tbe meeting.

THE PENINSULA ELECTION.

The Candidates on the Stump, . .1 [BY TELESKAPH.—PRESS ASSOCIATION.] j DUNEDItf, Monday. AT the Peninsula nominations to-day, the proceedings which were pretty > lively, the following was the show of hands: - For Dr Moran, 27; for Mr Donnelly, 20; for Mr Larnach, 18 ; and for Mr Wells, 3, The polling takes place next Monday. The proceedings were most lively during Mr Larnach's address. He has expressed opiaions favourable to the immigration of Cbiuese in small numbers, and whilst speaking on this qnestion today he was coDtinuallv interrupted. Be waxed warm towards the close, told his heareis he was not afraid of them, and wound up as reported, in this fashion: He was not in favour of Chinese coming here in numbers, but once here they should be treated fairly and humanely. He would treat Maorics and any other savages in the same way. (Continued cheering and uproar). Why, there were savages in countries that they looked upon as civilised countries, savages who committed murders and depredations. There were savages in those countries who *hot their fellow-men down from behind hedges and walls. (Tremendous cheering and uproar,) Could they compare Chinese to such savages as these? (A Voice: You must mean the Boeis.) No, ho did not mean tho Boers. The Boers were tar superior to these animals. (Great applause mixed with hisses.) Mr Wells made a short speech, but uproar arose which forced him to give up with the advice to the electors that they shonld not read the papers, but Hansard. Mr Donnelly was listened to patiently. He replied to what Mr Larnach had mid concerning his ambition and presumption in aflebing a place in Parliament, and to the outicism of a local paper. Bishop Moran, who spoke last, had an enthusiastic reception, He asserted that he came forward on behalf of seventy ihousand Catholics in the colony 'to demand justice is the matter of education. He replied to the ■ statement that Catholics as a b»dy did net want schools, but that only the clergy made the agitation. Did they »s honsst men think tha* the Oatholio body were fools or slavss, or that they were led by him (the Bishop.) They paid him an undue compli ment to imagine tbat he could have the power, tbe Influence, the eloquence, at d ability to lead 70,000 of bis fellow-citizsns If he was strong, the source of his strength was to be found.in the ssntiments, prin ciples, and determination of the Catholic body in this country. (Applause.) It was not true that he was the nominie of this man or that, nor was he a man to be under instructions from any mtn beyond his own principles, (Applause.) It was said that he wssono of the hierarchy tb»t hod^been tyrants everywhere. Was that true! The history of the British Empire would dis prove that assertion. Every time that Catholics had power In their hands in Ireland they refrained whh great praisewoitbiness from inflicting iejustice upon any man, and from doing an injuiy to any man on the score of religion. Maryland, ene of the flourishing States of America, was founded by Catho lics, and they established in it the principle of universal liberty, but when the other patty gained the asesndency they intro duced the penal laws 5 and it was the men who introduced penal laws there, and in England, and eferywhsre where psnal laws existed, that turned round on him and said, "Yeuarethe advocare of the penal laws of tyranny." He was the victim of penal laws and tyranny, and was of the race and religion that had been the victim of penal laws and tyranny for centuries. Thoso who charged him with being the ad vocate of tyranny oould not but know that they were speaking an untruth, and that thoy were charging falsely upon him the prieciples on which they were acting in this very election. He had been told by the paper that morning tbat he had been sent by the Pope under instructions. He did n»t want to say anything disiespectful, but wouM give them this advice—" Try and not let old women be editors of newspapers." (Loud laughter and applause.) lie wa* under instructions from no one, was obeying orders from no one. He asked them Bot to reject him because he was a Catholic and advecated justice to 70,000 people, becaeso if thty did it weuld be a disgrace, and would result in injury to them and to tho community at large in the long , run, (Loud applause,)

THE HIGH PRICE OF MILK.

(To the Editor.) Slß.—The announcement by advertiien in your columns ol latt week, re advanco o! Id per quart in tke price of milk, by two oi tho largest firms in the trade, may not.be S a great surprise wh»p the present drtngi; is considered, Doubtless, however, it viH '.• bo remembered by many ef yoar mien " that the Auckland Dairy Company! Rio j, slarted business here about twoy&tianda ~ half sicce cleatly announced, and Made prominent feature in their circulars that tha, - pticeto be charged by them, woiildM ] perquait all the year round, This Ik- I lievo th»yha»e continued to do until U ,;'1" present time, and by now advancing U^Sj price they ceitainly break faith wfth thsi -' customers, and bave doubtless been itußiH mental iv inducing other milk iealciaai ■- dairymen to follow their example"!|l|ji would otherwise no doubt have connate \ ' the supply at the usual price of 4d per qttut H It is pretty gtneraly known that for onenir months out of tho twelve contracts ire made with numerous larmets res within a radius of 8 or 10 miles of AncklaU' H who undertake to supply the dealer; si from 5d to 7d per gallon, and in maiy .' instances deliver it at their chops at t&lf|l prices. Allowing 4d per gallon as paid lo I the men who take reund the milk te ite public, there remains the handsome profit - ofsdto7d per gallon, not reckoning tie '." extra profit made on cream, &c.
