NELSON, November 11
A manifesto was published to-day over the signatures of the three local brewers who own the majority of the city hotels, stating that they had endeavoured to find out what alterations the public desired and thought it would be conducive to the better management of licensed houses. After carefully considering the various views the manifesto proceeds: "We have cqme to the conclusion that the two alterations the public would most like to see broaghr, abovit are first the earlier closing, of licensed premises, second the abolition of barmaids. With a view to giving effect to tho wishes of the public we undertake to have provision inserted in all future leases of our hotels providing for closing at half-past ten o'elot*.l: and prohibiting the employment of barmaids.
