LICENSING LEGISLATION.
DEPUTATION FSOM ALLIANCE
(By Telegraph—Press AsseciationO WELLINGTON, This Day.
The resolutions of the annual conference of the New Zealand Alliance were placed before the Premier, the Hon. J. G. Coates, and the Minister of Health, the Hon. J. A. Young, to-day, by a deputation some hundreds strong. The speakers asked for the bare majority and a two issue ballot paper, also the introduction of a Licensing Bill early in the coming session, and that it be given a free passage. In replying Mr Coates said he considered it his duty to enable Parliament again to consider the question and confessed his nervousness lest Prohibition, if passed, should not be fully complied with.
