LIST OF MINERS RIGHTS TAKEN OUT ON THE 31st OF DECEMBER LAST.
The subjoined list shows the num her of miners rights taken out on the last day of last year, and the names of the persons in whose behalf they were taken out. It will be noticed that the whole of the rights have been made available for the Reefton Riding at the forthcoming County elections, while the nationality of the holders sufficiently explains the object. Of the 61 miners rights mentioned below 57 were taken out by a servaut of the County Council. Comment upon such a proceeding is hardly necessary. There is only one course open, and that is to have the matter brought before the eusuitig Parliament, with the view of preventing such a scandalous attempt to rob the rate-payers of their control of local affairs.
