Wellington’s Year in Review and Progress Reflections
A year in Wellington recalls early hardships and progress from pioneer days to electrification at the town’s heart. The Wellington Times emerges as a leading regional paper amid amalgamation, farming trials with wheat, and stagnant new industries. The piece notes public baths, trotting prizes, stud sales, and questions about Burriendon weir while referencing national events like Canberra’s Parliament and the Greycliffe ferry tragedy.
