STAMP AMENDMENT ORDINANCE.
The COLONIAL TREASURER Doved the scootad reading of the Bill entitled, "An Ordin ance to further mend the Stamp Ordinance. 1901, and the law relating to Stamps and Stamp. Daty." In doing so he said-The reason for the introduction of this Bill at this time, Sir, is the contemplated revision of the Ordinances of the Celony. In going through the old Ordinances in aonnectic with this subject 1 discovered a number of defects which I noted from time to timo during the past few years. This Bill oures these defects and at the same time makes some fuller explanation of the existing law. There is nothing new in the principle of the Bill that has
not been in force here or in England.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL secondod, and the
motion was agreed to:

The ATTORNEY GENERAL sold that the Committee had suggested that the Bill should

It is a movement which commenced something like, a score of years ago in the work and writings of a tona woman.
