(PER PEBSS AGENCY.) Wellington, Saturday. Captain Colbeck was served to-day with a writ issued by Mes3rs Sievwright and Stout at the suit of Mr W. L. Rees, for penalties under the Disqualification Act, at the rate of £50 per day, it being alleged that he is at the present time a Government * contractor. Dunbdin, Saturday. All the papers express pleasure at the termination of the political deadlock. The Times says it would be , more satisfactory if it involved the retirement of the late Premier from the House altogether, but we must be grateful for small mercies. Mr Macandrew will meet with very little sym- , pathy from the electors of Otago.
