ally a private one in the strictest sense of the word, and intended bona fide European solely for residents in the colony. The election for membership, Mr Holliday explains, was vested in the committee, but the name of anyone joining had to be post ed in the Club room for a stated period, and provision was made for a general ballot should one be desired. With re- ference to Mr Holiday's statement, as to the accuracy of which we do not enter- tain the slightest doubt, we ons only say that there has been, since the time to which he refere, a very distinot de parture from the basis on which the Club was originally founded. The line of demarcation between possible and im- possible candidates for membership is certainly not the line indicated by Mr Holliday. It would be a pit,

and it would be unfair if it were so; for a con-- siderable number of the most active members of the club that is to say, members who avail themselves most fully of the facilities for recreation which the club offers could not be described correctly as bond fide Euro- pean residents in the Colony. Further, there is no ballotting committee at present, so that a comparatively small number of members who attend on the
