MORNINGTON TRAM.

TO THE EDITOR. Sir, —During the course of last week, after the civic meeting was held, we were informed that residents of Mornington would hear shortly about. tbe bus service. As an old resident of Mornington I am safe in saying that it is not the bus we want to hear about, but the tram. We are justly entitled to it, as we gained the vote taken on the loan for an Elgin road tram. I hope the residents will not take the mayor’s answer as final or lying down. When one comes to compare a suburb the size of Mornington with the Kaikorai, which is a scattered district, and yet is provided with two tram services, I think any right-minded person will agree that the time is long overdue for an extension tram to Look-out ■ Point. I trust before long to hear of someone of influence taking the matter up and calling a meeting of residents, and when the civic election next comes off I hope Mornington will be well represented on the council. That is the only way to get our rights, and we have some most capable gentlemen living on the hill who might consider the matter _of standing for a long neglected district. —I am, etc., Progress. May 4.
