B.—We have made inquiries into the allegations contained in your letter, and find that they are not founded on fact. The department informs us that the statements are quite erroneous. Sheep leaving Gore at midday on Monday are landed in Canterbury about the same time on Tuesday. The rule I of the department is that live stock must not be delayed. Sometimes, with very small lots, delay does arise; but in such an event the sheep are turned into the sheepyards, and are there attended to by the drovers. H.M., P.C.—The hospital authorities . undoubtedly have the right to require payment. TUESDAY, JANUARY §4, 1899. t The attendance last night at the raeet- ■ ing called by the Mayor in reference to . the proposed memorial to Sir George , Grey was anything but creditable to the . community. Some eighteen persons , were present at eight o'clock, and at no [ time was this number doubled. Where : were the so-called leading men of the ' community ? Where were eleven of the twelve city councillors? Where were . the young New Zealanders? It is true r that in a matter of this kind a poor ' meeting does not always mean a poor j subscription list; still, some little show 1 of enthusiasm might have been looked , for from the people. It seems to us, 5 too, that the meeting, such as it was, \ adopted a mistaken line of action, — J though, as a decision has been arrived at, we shall do what we can to further 3 the practical success of the project, and merely indicate our own view. We 3 think, then, that the memorial should neither be of a local character (as de- £- cided last night) nor form part of the 1 English memorial (as suggested by Mr 1 Scobie Mackenzie). We think that it 1 should be colonial, —that all the New j Zealand contributions should form one . fund, and that the money should be ■ spent in the erection of a statue in the Parliament grounds at Wellington, it 3 has been decided, however, that money j shall be raised for a local—i.e., an Otago —memorial, and it only remains for the - community to make a worthy response, and then for a further decision to be formed regarding the nature of the mn--1 morial. If we thought it possible that a sufficient sum of money would be raised, we should favour the idea of a statue. Statues are really the most \ effective kit:d of Uivnuorial; and all other
