M. Campbell, in a vigorous speech, and seconded by Mr. Cocil HolidayThat this meeting of Ratepayers, having heard the explanation of the Coansiling that the Government should take stops to 1525 desites to express the most profound regret that the Council should have so far disregarded the interests and dignity of the community, which they were elected to represent, na to agree to the compromise which has been affooted. But, the Consuls baring, in good faith, at the raznest of the Council, entered into na arrange out with the Ohmesa oficials this Mooting ....now gives the authority necessary to carry the
arrangement inte effoot."
Mr. G. J. Morrison sought unsuccessfully to iudqce the ratepayers to accept an amendment which left out the coueurs contained in the resolation, and after an naimated discussion, in which Mr. R. W. Little, the Rev. J. R. Hyizes, and Mr. C. J. Dudgeon took part, the resoln. tion was carried by an overwhelming majority, on a show of hands. Thereupon Mr. Probat aumouneed that
