MR HORNBLOW'S CAMPAIGN,

Mr R. E. Hornblow, who has been touring the baofe blocks, arrived in Feildiuf? ■yesterday. In all the centres visited his meetings were Vbrr largely attended, and he had cordial ieceptions. Sandon Block and Rewa asked for another visit before the day of election, bnt this the uandidate had reluctantly to refuse nwine; to the many other places he would have to visit.

TWO CANDIDATESThe Mayor, Mr E. Qoodbehere, read a telegram from Mr Newman at Mr Guthrie's meeting last night wishing the candidate every suecesd iu his campaign. Mr Newman* added that he regretted that the Western Hills had been taken out from his electorate and inclnded in Orona, but Mr Newnißn was confident that the interests of the electors would bb well saiveu by Mr (xotbrie. BAZAAK. The Primitive Methodist Bazaar was opened last night, and was very well attended. FOOTPATH STORAGE. the Editor M.D.T. ~~BTr~''Fairplay"J deserves the thanks of the business men who have not the same privilege as others. As the police pass by this flaprant breach of the Borough bylaws with a' wiuk' eye it is time the .Burough Council moved in the matter. Why cni man should be allowed to make a store room of one of our main strebtß and compel women with rocarts at times to go out on to the roadway is more than I can tell. Does this firm pay anything for storage room? I hope the .Council will take the matter up and see that its paths are kept free from obstruction. At present it is a scandal that some miswess men aie so privileged, whilst others are simply persecuted if they commit a similar offence.—l am, etc., ANOTHER BUSINESS MAN. 3 I'eildiug, November 9th. i;SSaB
