LOCAL RATES.
May I make one brief comparison in ritwj., Wellington versus Auckland? Ngmo Is incor porated in the City of Wellington Distance three miles from the city, capital ya _ house £1000 odd, bitumen streets, jL sewerage, rubbish carts, etc.; ra^ 6S A tickGlen Eden, distance eleven miles Yj en ' land, capital value of house £800 odd, .• men streets, 110 drainage or sewerage, b-sh carts; rates. £10 odd. It wou.d ba w ■ csting to get different comparisons 0 but it would be more interesting to r 1 n of Auckland generally to know fawns why their rates are so high when 0 all j and cities of New Zealand enjoy the same perhaps even more facilities. ...-a HARASSED RATEPAIW-
