MR ARKELL AND THE MAYORALTY.
Yesterday afternoon a deputation consisting of Messrs J_ M. Shera, A. R. Watson and W. J. Courtney waited on Mr D. Arkell in connection with his nomination for the office of Mayor during the ensuing term. Mr Courtney, who acted as spokesman, pointed out to Mr Arkell that the election of Dr. Campbell bore every appearance of being by all classes in the community, and it was difficult to see what object Mr Arkell could have in courting certain and probably ignominious defeat.. Before anything more, was said Mr Arkell broke in with an assurance that he was determined to go to the jpoll and abruptly left the deputation, which had no alternative but to withdraw.
