ANNIVERSARY PROCEEDINGS. (Per Press Association.) Masterton, June 30. A monster meeting was hold in the Town Hall to-night to celebrate the second , anniversary of the carrying of no-license jn Masterton electorate. An interesting report was read by the organiser of the party, showing that of ninety tradespeople who had been approached for an opinion concerning the effects of no-license, only eight had declared against it. Six medical men gave written testimony that they had not observed drinking in homes to any extent, and figures wore adduced to show that bankruptcies under no-license had been fewer than formerly, while crime had almost entirely disappeared.
