THE NEW NAPIER.
PRESS CONFERENCE TRIBUTE. Per Press Association. NAPIER, Feb. 27. At the annual meeting of the Press Association Sir Henry Horton said he was sure it had been a pleasure for all delegates who were attending the Press Conference to come to Napier on this occasion. "We remember sympathetically the terrible experience of the earthquake and the fire which devastated this city and province, and the courage with which that disaster was faced,” he said. "The new Napier of to-day is an eloquent tribute to the unconquerable spirit of the people of Hawke’s Bay, and we all hope they may reap a rich reward for their determination and enterprise. The delegates to the conference have been most hospitably entertained by the people of Napier, and I assure our hosts that their kindness and cordiality have been genuinely appreciated.” ,
