TRAMS FOR TARANAKI.
[BY;.: telegraph.—-press ASSOCIATION.] . ' Hawera," Tuesday. The reading problem is growing still more acute "as the winter approaches. Lately efforts have been made to devise some better system of communication than metalled roads. At first the monorail method by horse-power was considered, but a meeting of local bodies interested has decided to procure estimates for an electrical tramway, linking Kaupokonui and Hawera, 13 miles along the main South Road. • A rough estimate for such an installation is £30,000.
