The Temperance People of Temuka seem determined to take advantage of the rising tide to organise the Pareora electorate and cover it with a network of work of Associa' tions by which it will be difficult for any candidate to face the electorate without going in for the right of the people to settle the drink question. The first of the mootings was held at Milford school on Tuesday evening. Mr Christmas, chairman of the school committee, occupied the chair, A choir from Temuka sang several hymns * and a very enthusiastic and successful meeting was held. The Bovs Dellow and Dickson and Messrs Monaghan, Preddy and R. McOully addressed the meeting. Beaolutions were passed supporting the Direct Veto Bill before Parliament, and pledging the meeting not to vote for any candidate who refus'd the people the power of exercising the Direct Veto if they wished to do so. A local organisation was established and a committee, appointed with Mr Park as secretary and treasurer. Mr Dickson announced, as chairman of the Temuka Direct Veto Association, a powerful© and vigorous organisation,, that meetings of the same kind would bo held in Hangatira, the Point, and other plices as soon as arranged and made known.
