DUNEDIN.
Feb. 13.
Mr Henry Driver has bought the Southern Cross Soap, Candle, and Glycerine Works at Burnside.
From nine to eleven candidates were nominated to-day for three of the Diinedin Licensing Districts, and only four for the fourth. This has been explained as resulting from an accident on the part of the Good Templars. Mr Green, M.H.R., entrusted the nomination papers of the temperance candidates to a lad, who delivered them at the wrong place in the other district. The temperance candidates include Mr R. Stout and Dr Copeland, and are pledged to insist on all publichouse bars being closed at ten, instead of twelve o'clock, as at present, and to refuse all grocers licenses, and stop Sunday traffic, &c. Amongst other candidates is Mr Fish, M.H.R.
The tender of Messrs Stooka and Clark, of Christchurch, has been accepted for the Deep Stream contract on the Otago Central Railway. The amount is £25,273 8s 6d.
