It is interesting to find it mentioned m the political gas generator, Wellington, that the Canterbury Jockey Club is one of the few clubs, if not the only one, that consults the police about the character of applicants for boolvmaking licenses.

The circumstance was mentioned to a horrified court m several trespass and vagrancy cases.
