TO-DAY'S TELEGRAMS.
[By Telegraph.] [Special to Standard.] Wellington, This day. The shopkeepers are rebelling against being levied on for contributing to bazaars, and at a meeting of the Traders' Association resolutions were passed pledging those present to discontinue the practice of giving goods and to take means to secure the co-operation of all tradesmen to this end. The Golf Championship was won by Miss Wilford, Hutt, beating Mrs Wilden, Christchurch, by eight holes up, seven to play. The result caused considerable surprise. Timaeu, This day. At the annual meeting of the Farmers Co-operative Association, the report showed a successful year. Nearly £7,000 is to be distributed ; 8 per cent is to be paid on the share capital, a bonus of 3 per cent on purchases and salaries, and £3,000 added to the reserve, which is now £12,000. The turnover for the year was £211,000.
