WELLINGTON.
(Per Press Telegram Agency.) This day. Graving Dock. Mr Henderson, of Brogdens, is preparing plans for a grsving dock, giving the same accommodation as former plans, but at £10,000 less cost. Mr. Fitzherbert's Address. Mr. Fitzherbert in his address to the Hutt electors says :—He would be prepared to insist on—first, election of Local Executive officers by the people; second, on the endowment of Local Boards with district revenues, independent of the caprice or the needs of Parliament; and third, on the right of local authorities to appropriate their own revenues without the interference or patronage of the Central Government. He would oppose to the utmost all attempts to impose on New Zealand anything like the centralised system of administration which had prevailed in France.
