Judging by the amount of drift wood coining down the river this afternoon, the water' in some of the tributaries must have risen considerably. At the usual monthly meeting of the Wanganui County Council, .held to-day, there were present — Councillors Neilson (chair), D. Mason, J. E. Wilson, F. Furth, and H. M. Speed. The committee appointed to call a meeting of ratepayers in the Mangawhero Biding to consider the question of the proposed closing of the Upokongaro ferry reported that the ratepayers had decided to ask the Council to give the ferry another trial, with the recommendation to the Council to give Messrs Hodder, Missen," Heyda, and Brooks permission to work the wire, providing the lessee agreed. The committee suggested that tlio Council ohould accede to the roquesi, and this was agreed to. Thin was all tlv business of any importance.
