A POLITICAL WAGER
MR. DOIDGE DECLINES IT. AUCKLAND. Sept. 17. An enthusiastic Labour supporter created endless amusement at Mr. F. W. Doidge’s political meeting at Penrose last night. He kept moving from one part cl the hall to another and maintained verbal exchanges with the candidate. The climax arrived when he flourished two £1 notes, and marching up to the platform, offered to make a wager with Mr. Doidge that he would not win the Manukau sea*. The candidate laughingly declined the invitation “to cover the notes."
