WAIPAWA.
THIRD CANDIDATE LIKELY.
(By Telegraph.—Pre 9s Association.)
WAIPUKURAU, Friday.
An interesting position in connection with the contest in the Waipawa electorate has arisen. Until this afternoon it appeared tlie seat would be contested by Sir George Hunter (Reform) and Mr. D. P. Kent (United party), but now a third candidate, Mr. A. E. Goodger, ex-Mayor or Waipuxurau, is lively. Supporters of the United party to-day passed a resolution declaring they had not been consulted in the selection of Mr. Kenr, and they did not support him. The meeting expressed a desire for Mr. Goodger to be asked to contest the seat r 3 the official United party candidate.
