Mr. J. Kerr of Nelson, who is on a visit to Blenheim, informs us (Express) that it is his intention to stand for that city at the next general election against all comers. It is probable that there will be at least one candi date on the other side and probably more. At present Mr Kerr is taking an interest in the fishing industry, being the owner of the Tainui, which is engaged trawling for fish off the Wairau bar, a ready market being found for sole and the other varieties caught there, in Wellington. B. J. Warner & Co, of Nelson, who are relinguishing business, are holding a tremendous clearing sale, the premises being crowded daily. They would like their Havelock customers to share in the bargains but cannot quote prices or send patterns as the stock is being rapidly sold off. If, however, anyone cares to send along an order for some cheap goods stating what they require and enclosing P.O. order to cover the amount, Warner d Co. will send them a parcel that will astonish all who see it. —Address: Warner and Co., Drapers, Nelson.
