MR. KETTLE'S POPULARITY.
-"To the Editor. Sir,—l . presume your correspondent "Citizen" lias read the late wretched , history of the majority of the Wellington hotels. Does he wish the • Wangapiui hotels to descend to that miserable state?
j Temperate people are trying to ward off ] prohibition by • insisting on, more up-tc;- ---* date convenience and better conduct,' and
brewers and publicans! are madly stubborn in standing in their own light. Mr. 0. C. Kettle and these aiding him ha redone, and are still doing, giant work in protecting them against themselves. Thanks to the Licensing- Committee, no better proof of this can be obtained than the fact that Wangainui, in regard to he: hotels, is looked upon as the most moral, convenient, and comfortable city in New Zealand. Mr. Kettle is> greatly imbued with the idea of moral and social improvement and! aa District Judge his judg-
ments are sound. • He is upright and fearless. Mr. Kettle has aided, in. many gwnd things, and I have heard that just now he is endeavourng to establish a Scenery Preservation Society far Wanganui—certainly a laudable object.—l am, etc., TEMPERANCE.
