BONA! FIDE TRAVELLER, It would appear that the Legislative Council, when, it repealed ■Subsection 22 of the Licensing Act of 1895 was of opinion that it had knocked the bonai fide traveller and his Sunday tricks out of existence-, but the traveller remains. Section 157 of the Act of 1881, which is not repealed, provides; that it shall be ai good defence, for a. licensee: to> plead that! he believed his; customer to bo a ibbna fide traveller, so- that under this section) the man on the road 1 will be able to assuage his thirst, when he has passed the three mile limit, the increase to five miles having been struck out by the Council. The position is, however, anomalous, a.nd some amendment will have to be made before thei Bill is finally dealt with.
