WELLINGTON, Thursday. The Colonial Conference of the no-li-cense party, at to-night's meeting, received a visit from the Hon. R. McNab who said he had long taken an interest in the cause. It was commonly asserted that the politician held whatever views he had simply as a means to personal advancement. This was not true in his case, as he had been a no-license worker long before he became a politician.
A resolution was carried that in future the Alliance should also be the executive of the annual conference.
A committee wa.s set up to consider the need of establishing a first-class inebriates' home. A resolution was also carried with acclamation expressing appreciation of the great and successful effort made by the general secretary to clear off the Alliance debt.
Mr. A. S. Adams was re-elected president.
