A considerable amount of discussion took place at the meeting of the Clifton County Council on Friday on the subject of the railway to Te Kuiti, and one member said that he did not think the Waitara Borough Council' voiced the opinions of the ratepayers when they passed the resolution objecting to the railway. As a matter of fact the Borough Council did not object to the railway, but after advocating a road for so long, it was thought probable that by pressing for a railway now, the settlers might not get either.
