MAHARAHARA NOTES.

The Maharahara Copper Mines* Ltd., have""6bT;ained a license to close , down the~mine for a Few months. ,1 hear the? cofiipany will start again soon on a very much larger scale than before, and in all probability the company will be re-formed. The ladies ofyMaharahara West intend holding a "social afternoon" at the. sohoollibuse prior to breaking up for the, term holidays, when the prizes won during the year will be presented. .County Chairman Jull, at the Wai- r pawa banquet, gave it as his opinion , : that ratepayers, took their local gov- ; et»meni; too lightly. Ido not think this reproach would lie against local f ratepayers, as ' I hear already the ' merits of the different candidates for ihe-iiexb coxiniy elections are . being d'iscussedi A)moiig ±3ie names "of probable ,-candidates T hear mentioned those, of Messrs G. J. Goldfinch, M. 0. Grainger, and ; H. Pillaris. ; The Woodville County Council has at last started to erect the bridge, near the' j\la]iarahara West creamery,. . sanctioned, some twelve months ago. This work lias been urgently needed for some time past, and it is to be. hoped the Council will go straight ahead and finish the job. ; The bridge near Airs Clausen's seems to hang fire a long time. i
