MAYORAL ELECTIONS

Addressing a large attendance at tho King's Wharf at midday to-day, Mr. D. M'Laren, a candidate for the Mayoralty, emphasised the points he has made previously, and as already reported. Touching on class representation, Mr. M'Laren denied that the working class was a class at all — because it was tho body of the country. If elected, he would always 6tand for the collective good of the people a 6 against private and sectional interests. He was strongly in favour of the council holding on to all the city properties, and stated that, calculating on the increases of rents therefrom during the last two years,' the properties would, by 1914, yield £12,000. The candidate was accorded a round of cheers after concluding. CANDIDATES' NEXT MEETINGS. Mr. A.' S. Bies, Newt own Library, tonight, at 8 o'clock. Air. R. A.
