EIGHT HOURS DEMONSTRA TION.

Tin: Committee of the above movement

met, a^ per advertisement, last evening in the Working .Men's Club, Mr Ifcflop in the chair. A number of additional delegates took their scats. A communication from the Trade and Labour Council was read, offering to co-operate with the Eight Hours Demonstration Committee in arranging a programme for the evening of the 29th of January. It was suggested that Mr Dargaville, M.H.R., might be asked to address the working classes on that evening in the Theatre Royal, at which ho could also present the prizes to the winners of the day. The Sports Committee made numerous suggestions relative to the pro gramme, but nothing definite was adopted. The Committee will meet early in the com ing week, when a programme will be sub mitted, which will bo at onco published. The secretary was instructed to communi cate with leading men of branches of labour not yet represented whose names and addresses Mere furnished urging them to elect delegates to the Eight Hours Demonstration Committee. Tbe meeting then adjourned, to meet again next Friday.

THE NORTHERN ROOT & SHOE MANUFACTURING CO. (LTD.)

Tin-: second annual meeting of this Com- ] pany was hold yesterday aftovnoon at the i ollice (if the Company, Hobson-street, C. .1. Stone, Esq., in tlio chair. Tlio mooting ; was well reprcscntctl by directors and share holders. The Secretary, Mr Tlios. Hodg- ; son, read tlio report and balance-sheet for ■ the year, in which it was stated I hat serious '. losses which had been experienced since , the formation of tho Company had not only , absorbed the amount put aside last year for ' bad and doubtful debts, but £17-1 10s 8d of last year's balance, and £83 13s Sd received as premium on shares, etc., and left a debit balance of £012 18a lid. Shortly after the formation of the Company your directors felt it in your interest to close the Wanganui branch, the state of trade in that dis- j trict being very unsatisfactory. This has : been followed during the present year by the closing of the Cheap Boot Shop. On the stocks of these two establishments we have had to submit to a very heavy de- ' preciation. In consequence of contrariety ' of views between our manager and the , Hoard, Mr Austin placed his resignation in • tbe hands of your directors, and this has been accepted. Your directors have been fortunate in securing the services of Mr Thos. .lones, manager of Messrs Light- ; band, Allan, and Co.'s Boot Factory, Christchurch, for many years, and who only was induced to leave that employ and come North on the score of his health. 'J ho directors look with conlidence to the future. The etock has been written down to its current value ; you have first-class premises, and a steady increasing trade, and we trust to meet you at our next, annual meeting with satis factory results. Two of your directors, Messrs Carr and Heron, retire, and are eligible, and odor themselves for re-election. The auditor, Mr John Milne, also retires, but is eligible for re-election, The balance-sheet showed as follows :— DR.—Capital, £10,000, in 15,000 shares of t'l each; 10 shares paid up at £1 each, £10; 12,(i02 shares paid up at ]2s Od each, L7.SS2 105—£7,892 10s-j 12,602 shares allotted, 2,333 shares unallotted—ls,ooo ; bills payable, £2,194 Ss 2d ; accounts pay able, £548 13s Sd j loan on property, £4,000; dividends unclaimed, £4 19s: total, £14,040 10s lOd. Cn.—Freehold property, £4,801 5s 2d ; bills receivable, £170 10s Od ; cash credit Bank of New Zealand, £202 10s 7d ; cash in hand, £53 17s Od—£2so 14s Id ; accounts receivable, 12,530 ls lOd ; plant and machinery, £1,080; stock on hand, £4,583 0s 4d-; balance, £012 ISs lid: total, £14,040 10s lOd. Profit and Loss Account. Dr.—Wages, £4,479 15s 8d; general trade charges, travelling expenses, advertising, etc., £55,3 lis lid; interest, bank and trade discount, £544 ISs 4d; depreciation on plant, £75 ls 7d ; bad dobts, £959 2s 3d • total, £0,012 9s 9d. Cn.—Balance from last year, £490 10s Sd (less dividend £322), £174 10s Sd; amount provided for contingent liability in balance sheet, October, 1882, £820 15s Od; premium on shares, £70 12s Od ; salo of cottage, etc., 10 0s lid ; gross profits on sales, £4,921 lis 3d ; balanco, £012 ISs lid : total, £0,012 9s 9d. Tho Chairman remarked at some length on tho position of tho Company, and said the outlook of tho Company was favourable, and tho trade generally was increasing. He believed that with better styles, first class goods at reasonable prices, good machinery and careful supervision, the directors would be able to present at the next annual meeting ; a mote satisfactory balance-sheet. Ho would move the adop tion of the report. Mr Austin seconded, and after remarks by Mr Fleming, Mr Laybourn, Mr Elkin, and others, the report and balance-sheet were adopted. The next business was tho election of officers, Four wero nominated for the directorate, viz., Messrs R. C. Carr, Jaroe3 Heron, J. J. Austin, and Jonathan Elkin, who retired in favour of Messrs Can- and Heron. Tho following was the result :— Austin, 7 ; Heron, 9; Carr, 9. Mr Austin demanded a poll. Messrs Milne and Flem ing were appointed scrutineers, and an nounced tho result of the poll as follows :— Heron, 8,404 ; Carr, 8,204; Austin, 2,140. The Chairman declared Messrs Heron and Carr elected. Mr John Milne was re-elected auditor of the Company. ■ Votes of thanks closed the proceedings, j

SIR MITCHELSON IN THE SOUTH.

Rcooptlon of Deputations at Dunedin. [by telegraph—press association.] I Dunedin, this day. A deputation, representing the Westport Coal Company, waited on Mr Mitchelson | this afternoon to urge tho advisability of carrying on the work of improving the Westport Harbour in a speedier manner than it was being prosecutod at present. Mr Mitchelson said the matter had come beforo him for the first time, and he could make no definite promise, but he had no doubt when he returned to Wellington and placed the views of the deputation before the Government, they would agree to the expenditure of the money voted, as was suggested. A deputation from the New Zealand Manufacturers' Association waited on Mr Mitchelson today, to urge that as much of tho Government work as possible should bo given to colonial manufacturers. Mr Mitchelson promised that whatever ho could place in the hands of colonial maim- ' factm-ers he would, but he added that tho fact of the Government having work done j in their own workshops, instead of private factories in Dunedin, would not affect the : labour market in any way so far as ho i could see. The Government were employ- | ing nn great an amount of labour as the various factories throughout the town, and iiad also a number of apprentices. Mr Mitchelson goes to Invercargill on Monday, and returns to Dunedin on Wed nesday. Ho intended inspecting the Otago Central line this trip, hut will forego the inspection on this occasion.

The Bad and Worthless.

Bro never imitated or counterfeited. This is especially truo of a family medicine, and It is positive proof that the remedy imitated 1b of the highest value. As soon as it had been tested and proved by tho world that Hop Bitters was tho purest, best, and most valuablo family ! medicino on earth, many imitations sprung up, | and began to steal the notices in which the Press ! and the people of tho country had expressed the merits of H. 8., and in every way trying to induce suffering invalids to uso their stun instead, expecting to make money on the credit and good namoof H. B. Many others started ! nostrums put up in similar stylo to H. B„ with ' variously devised names in which tho word ET P r t ?°P 3 wero used in a way to induce eopie to believe they wero tho samo as Hop ltters. All such pretended remedies or cures, ; no niattor what their style or name is, and especially those with the word "Hop" or ' Mops in their namo or in any way connected Willi them or their name, arc imitations or , counterfeits. Beware of them. Touch none of I tneni. Use nothing but genuino American Hop BUtere, with a bunch or cluster of green Hops ?,!i ho whlte Jabel, and Dr, Soule's name blown In the glass. Trust nothing else. Druggists and Chemists oro warned against dealing in imita tions or counterfeits.

A stranger in St. Louis, thinking he re cognised his coat on the back of a pedes trian, shouted "Stop thief!".-and about thirty of the inhabitants suddenly dis appeared down a side street.
