THE TE ARO RAILWAY EXTENSION. TO THE EDITOR.
Sin—My friend said last evening thero was a great blast of trumpets a few wooks ago about the Te Aro railway extension, the Te Aro Wharf, and a proposal to spend .£39,000 (whioh tho Harbour Board was to pay tho City Council) in further reclamation. ' What's aomo of it all ? Well, Counoillor FitzGerald is opposed to all these works. Who is Counoillor FitzGerald ? Why, don't you know, Dr. Newman, M.H.R., and C. J. Johnston, Esq., M.H.R., are his brothers-in-law ? Consequently, he is a man of no small importance in the oity; but surely he has not more influence than 1590 rosiaents in tho South of Wellington. Up to now ho has, but it won't last for ever. " lam, &c, 11th Juno. • • TeAro.
