ELECTORAL BOUNDARIES.
PROTEST OF “LICENSED TRADERS.”, (Per Press Association;) Wellington, August IS. At;a lueciiagjof the Licensed Traders of New Zealand yesterday, the following resolution was unanimously adopted:—“That- this meeting most, strongly protests against the effects of the action of the Boundary Commissioners, which virtually extinguishes a number of hotels without the voice and vote of the people having been taken as provided in the licensing laws of the country.” It was pointed out that the loss of hotels brought about through the alteration of the boundaries might be far greater than the results of the general licensing poll, and each recurring period, for boundary adjustments will increase the possibilities of the inclusion of licensed houses within no-license areas. The loss on the present occasion will be at least nine houses if restoration is not carried at the next poll.
