TE WAKA MAORI O NIU TIRANI.
HE KUPU WHAKAHOKI KI NGA HOA TUHI MAI.
——————«——————
I taia i te Waka Nama 5 te korero a RANIERA ERIHANA, o
Otakou, i mea ra ia i tae ia ki tetahi hui Pakeha i te po i Ta-
nitini, a i rongo ia ki tetahi kupu a te TAUTA roia i reira, i kiia,
" Te mea pai, me tango nga whenua a nga Maori. " I ki hoki
a Raniera i a ia te nupepa e takoto ana o taua korero a te Tauta.
Otira, kua kite a Raniera i te he o tana korero inaianei; kua
tukua mai hoki e ia tetahi wahi o taua nupepa ki a matou, ki-
tea ana e matou i penei te te kupu a te Tauta, " He mea he
rawa te tango i nga whenua katoa a nga Maori"—ara mo nga
whenua o Waikato tana korero. E pouri ana a Raniera ki tona
whakapae ki a te Tauta, a e mea ana kia murua tona hara e te
Tauta, no te mea he pohehe ia taua mea. Tenei nga moni a
Raniera kua tae mai.
HONE PIHAMA KETU, o Nukumaru, Waitotara. Me tuku
mai e koe te pauna kotahi ka hoatu ai te nupepa.
E korerotia mai ana ki a matou ko etahi tangata tupua-a-
whiro e tangohia mai ana ki a ratou i nga Potapeta nga Waka
kua utua e etahi atu tangata. Na, ko tenei tu he e whiua ki-
notia ana e te Ture, pera ano me etahi mahi whanako. E kore
e penei he mahi kuare a te tangata ngakau rangatira. He ahua
ke, he ahua ke, to nga whanako; te mea wetiweti rawa to te
mea e mahi huna ana i tona mahi.
He nui enei korero me nga reta e kore e o, me waiho marire.
He kapi rawa no te nupepa nei i nga korero o te Paremete i
tenei wa i kore ai e o nga reta maha e tae mai ana ki a matou.
He nui nga tangata e ki mai ana kia panuitia atu e matou nga
korero o etahi motu. Ta matou kupu whakahoki, kia watea
matou i nga mahi a te Paremete, hei reira matou panui ai i etahi
korero o tawhiti e pai ai, e ahuareka ai hoki, o matou hoa
Maori.
He mea atu tenei ki nga tangata tuhituhi mai, me utu e ra-
tou te meera mo te mauranga mai o a ratou reta, ara me wha-
kapiri nga upoko Kuini e rite ana, ka kore, e kore e tangohia e
matou aua reta.
Me tuhituhi atu i te meera i muri nei te whakaaturanga o
nga moni e tae mai ana mo te nupepa noi.
Ko nga tangata o te takiwa o Waipiro e hiahia ana ki te tango
i tenei nupepa, me haere ki a J. A. Hatingi, Pakeha o reira.
Ko ia to matou hoa, mana e whakaatu nga tikanga katoa ki a
ratou, mana hoki e hoatu nga nupepa ki nga tangata.
NOTICES AND ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS.
——————»—————\_
In the Waka, No. 5, a communication appears from
RANIERA ERIHANA, of Otago, to the effect that he was pre-
sent one night at a public meeting in Dunedin when Mr.
STOUT made a speech wherein he said that, " The correct
thing would be to take the Maori lands, " and that he
(Raniera) had in his possession a copy of a paper containing
that speech of Mr. Stout's. Raniera has since discovered his
mistake, and has sent us a slip cut from the paper in question,
from which we find that Mr. Stout, speaking of confiscated
lands in the Waikato, said, " It would be an improper thing to
take all land away from the Maories. " Raniera is sorry for
the mistake which he has made, and hopes Mr. Stout frill for-
give him, as it was done in ignorance. The money from
Raniera has been duly received.
HONE PIHAMA KETU, of Nukumaru, Waitotara, must remit
£1, and he will receive the Waka.
A number of complaints have reached us that certain un-
principled Natives are in the habit of obtaining from the Post
Offices, and appropriating to themselves, copies of the Waka
which arc addressed to other persons who have paid their sub-
scriptions. Such offences are severely punishable by law, us any
other theft is. No man of honorable principles would stoop to
commit actions so mean. There are thieves and thieves, but
the meanest and most despicable of thieves is the hidden thief.
A number of letters and other communications received must
stand over.
At present our space is so much occupied with reports of pro-
ceedings in Parliament that we cannot find space to publish
the numerous letters which we are receiving. Very many of
our correspondents ask us to publish information from and
about other parts of the world. We answer that when we get
through the Parliamentary business, we shall give them a
variety of interesting matter which will be instructive and
pleasing to them.
We beg to inform our correspondents that in future we
shall not receive letters for publication unless the postage be
prepaid.
Henceforth we shall acknowledge privately by mail subscrip-
ions received.
Subscribers and others intending to become so in the neigh-
bourhood of Waipiro Bay, can have their papers, and obtain ail
information respecting advertising, &c., on application to our
agent there, J. A. Harding, Esq.

taua Runanga, nga ritenga kei raro iho nei: —
1. Ko te ingoa poto o tenei Ture, ka kiia ko te Ture Hoko
Whenua Maori a te Kawanatanga, 1878.
2. Ko nga panuitanga katoa mo nga take matamua a te
Kuini ki runga ki te whenua e whakahuatia ana i roto i aua
panuitanga, ara, me he mea ka Kahititia i runga i te tikanga o
te Ture Hoto Whenua Maori a te Kawanatanga, 1877 (ka
whakahuatia raro iho nei ko " taua Ture") na, ko taua
panuitanga ka rite tonu tona tikanga ki to te mea e ti atu ana
ti nga tangata katoa kua kore rawa te take Maori ki runga ki

engari mo nga tangata ke utu taua panuitanga; a, ka timata i

mahi. Kaore, engari e mahi ana a ia i runga i te
ako a ona Minita, ara i ta ratou e tohutohu, ai—na,
ko nga mana o tenei Ture e hoatu ana ki nga
Minita, kaore te Kawana. I rite tonu te mahinga
o tenei Ture ki etahi mahi katoa a tenei Kawana-
tanga; ehara i te mea i mahia hei oranga anake mo
nga Maori, engari hei mea tetahi e whai mana nui ai
ratou, te Kawanatanga. Te hee o tenei Ture, he
mea ia e hoatu ana ki a ratou he mana manaaki i o
ratou hoa aroha—he mea he tenei. He mana kei a
ratou ki te whakaae, ki te whakakahore ranei, ki nga
pitihana a nga Maori kia whakaturia taua Ture i te-
tahi takiwa; tetahi, he mana kei a ratou ki te wha-
katu i taua Ture ahakoa pai nga Maori, kaore ranei
e pai—kei ta ratou whakaaro pai, mauahara ranei,
ki nga tangata na ratou te pitihana te tikanga.
Otira, ki te mea ka whakahaere pono i nga tikanga
o taua Ture, tera e kitea ona hua pai—no konei ka
mea matou he hikoi kotahi ia ki runga ki te ara tika.
Te 1 me te 2 o nga tekiona o taua Ture, he mea
whakaingoa kau i te Ture, he mea whakamarama
hoki i etahi kupu i roto.
Tekiona 3. E mea ana tenei ma te Kawana e
panui tetahi wahi noa atu. o te koroni hei takiwa e
mana ai taua Ture, ara i runga i enei tikanga kei
raro iho nei: —
(1. ) Me tuku he pitihana ki a te Kawana na etahi tangata
Maori tangata matua o taua takiwa he mea inoi kia whaka-
turia taua Ture ki reira; kaua e iti iho i te toru o nga
wehenga o nga tangata katoa o taua takiwa mana e tuku i
taua pitihana; tetahi
Me tuku he pitihana pera ano ki a te Kawana e etahi
rangatira Maori, kaua e iti iho i te kotahi te kau, o nga
kainga katoa i roto i taua takiwa e meatia ana hei
takiwa mo taua Ture;
(2. ) Ko nga Maori e noho ana i taua takiwa me rite to
ratou nui ki te rua Maori ki te kotahi Pakeha;
(3. ) Kaua tetahi taone i roto i nga rohe o tetahi takiwa ina
panuitia.
Tekiona 4. Ma te Kawana e titiro me he mea he
mea pono nga pitihana e tukua ana ki a ia; mana
hoki e titiro me he mea he tika kia whakaaetia taua
pitihana. Kei tenei tekiona hoki he mana e ahei ai
te Kawana te whakaparahako ki tetahi pitihana
katoa atu e tukua ana ki a ia.
Tekiona 5. Muri iho i tena ka ahei te Kawana te
panui i tetahi takiwa hei takiwa e tu ai taua Ture,
me te ra hoki e tu ai mana ano e whakarite.
Tekiona 6. Me ata whakarite i nga rohe o nga
rohe o nga wahi katoa e waihotia ana hei takiwa i
raro i taua Ture, a e ahei te Kawana te whakaputa-
ke i aua rohe i etahi taima.
Tekiona 7. Ka whai mana te Kawana ki te kara-
nga, i runga i tona whakaaro ake ano, kia tu tetahi
wahi noa atu o te korora hei takiwa i raro i taua
Ture, a mana hoki e whakatakoto i nga rohe.
Tekiona 8. E kore rawa tetahi tangata e tika ki
te hoko, ki te tuku noa ranei, nga wai whakahaurangi
ki tetahi Maori, hei kai ranei ma tetahi Maori, i
roto i tetahi takiwa kua panuitia; e kore hoki ia e
kawe i aua wai ki roto ki te takiwa pera, ki totahi
wahi tata ranei ki taua takiwa, ki te mea e mohio
ana a ia hei kai aua wai ma nga Maori.
Tekiona 9. Me tutaki nga paparakauta Maori
whom the powers in the Act are conferred. Like
everything else done by the present Government,
this Act seems to have been framed as much with a
view of increasing their own power and influence as
benefiting the Natives. It places in their hands a
power of favoritism which is objectionable. They
can accede to the petition of any Natives to have the
Act put in force, or they can refuse, or they can
cause it to be put in force whether the Natives de-
sire it or not, according to the degree of favor or dis-
favor with which they may regard the petitioners.
However, if the provisions of the Act be honestly
carried out, it doubtless will be productive of good
—therefore we suppose we must hail it as a step in
the right direction.
The 1st and 2nd sections of the Act merely refer
to the title and interpretation of terms used in the
Act.
Section 3 provides that the Governor may pro-
claim any part of the colony to be a locality wherein
the Act shall come into operation, subject to the fol-
lowing conditions: —
(1. ) That a petition be presented to the Governor from not
less than one-third of the adult Native residents of the locality,
praying that the Act may tuke effect therein; or
That a petition of a like tenor be presented to the
Governor from not less than ten of the chiefs and principal.
Natives of the different settlements within a district
proposed to be declared a locality;
(2. ) That the Native residents in the locality number not
less than in the proportion of two Natives to one European
resident therein;
(3. ) That no town be included within the limits of any
locality when proclaimed.
Section 4 provides that the Governor shall ascer-
tain the genuineness of any petition presented to
him, and as to the expediency of acceding to the
petition. By this section the Governor has power
also to refuse to act in accordance with the prayer of
any petition.
Section 5. The Governor may thereafter proclaim
any district to be a locality under the Act, and fix a
day for it to be brought into operation.
Section 6. The boundaries of every locality under
the Act shall be defined, and the Governor may from
time to time alter such boundaries.
Section 7. The Governor may of his own accord
declare any part of the colony to be a locality under
the Act, and fix the boundaries thereof.
Section 8. No person whatever may sell or supply
intoxicating liquors within a proclaimed locality to
any Native, or for the use of any Native, or convey
any such liquor into any proclaimed locality, or
neighbourhood of any such locality, knowing the
same is intended to be consumed by Natives.

Tu ana ko te MAHE; tana mahara he mea tika

ki te rouru o nga tangata utu reiti kia whiwhi ai

E kore au e mohio ki te ara e tika ai au te tautoko

E pai ana au kia kotahi tonu turanga pooti mo tatou

PARLIAMENT.
HOUSE.
THURSDAY, 23RD AUGUST, 1878.
ELECTORAL BILL.
(Adjourned Delate. )
Mr. MURRAY thought the provision that the
Maories must place themselves on the ratepayers'
roll before they would be entitled to vote, was ex-
ceedingly valuable. It would tend to induce them
to pay taxes for the improvement of roads and other
public works, which they do not at present pay.
Mr. RICHARDSON. —There is one question—a very
important one—relating to Maori representation. ]
must say that I cannot see my way to support a con-
tinuance of exceptional representation. I would, of
course, place the Maories on the same footing as
ourselves, and give them their proper proportion of
representation; but I think it would be wrong to
give them double votes.
Mr. BRYCE. —There is only one other point on
which I desire to speak, and that is in regard to the
vote which it is proposed to give to the Maories
tinder this Bill. I shall support that proposal. At
the present moment there are a considerable number
of Maories on the rolls of the colony, but under this
Bill the bulk of them will come off the roll; they
can easily get on the roll again, but only when they
become ratepayers. I think it would be advisable to
add a clause to the Bill to the effect that they should
not be ratepayers nominally, but ratepayers who
had actually paid their rates. The honorable
member for Dunstan has said that the word " Maori "
should be eliminated from our Acts; but I think
there is a great deal of absurdity in statements of
that sort. If we look at the land-taxing proposals

takoha. E kore ano pea e tino taea inaianei te
whakatu i nga Maori ki te turanga kotahi i a tatou;
engari e mahara ana ahau he tikanga whakaako i a
Tatou te tikanga e mea nei kia whakanohoia ki te
rouru nga Maori e utu reiti ana. Tera ano e nui
haere nga Maori i nga rouru i nga wa e takoto ake
nei, a kaore au e kite ana i te he o te hoatu tikanga
a mua ake nei ki nga Maori e rite pu ai ratou ki a
tatou. Ehara i te mea tika ki taku mohio te tika-
nga e motuhake nei he mema mo nga Maori ake ano
i te Paremete; otira e kore pea e roa te mutu ai
taua tikanga, ka tu ai ratou i te turanga pooti e tu
nei tatou.
Te HAPU. —Mo te pooti Maori na, e mohio ana
ahau he tokomaha nga mema o tenei Whare e
whakahe ana ki taua mea; otira e hia koia nga Maori
kei te rouru ? He tokoiti rawa ra; a ki te mea ma
tenei Pire e wehewehe ai ratou i o ratou take ki te
whenua, ka uru mai ai kite rouru tangata utu reiti,
na he mea pai tena ka oti i a tatou. E tae ana ki te
rua te kau, toru te kau, nga ingoa Maori kei etahi
Karauna karaati, a ki te mea ka whakanohoia ki te
rouru ena ingoa katoa, ka nui rawa te mana ki a
ratou. Taku whakaaro, me wehewehe ratou i o
ratou take. E mea ana ahau kaore ano kia ata tika
he ritenga tuku mema ma nga Maori ki tenei Whare,
a e koa ana au ki etahi mema e pera ana o ratou
whakaaro me taku mo taua mea. He tangata mohio
anake enei mema Maori e tu nei; e mohio ana ki te
whakaatu i nga mahi o tenei Whare ki nga Maori
kei waho, a he nui te pai o a ratou mahi mo te motu.
' Me whakatakoto e tatou he tauira pai mo ratou;
me whakaari e tatou he mahi tika ta tatou i nga
mahi o te motu, me nga mahi katoa atu. He mea
he rawa kia mahi tinihanga etahi Pakeha i nga
pootitanga; he mahi ia e tupato ai nga Maori ki a
ratou, e whakaaro ai he kuare ratou. E pai ana
kia wawe te tae ki te wa e kore ai he tikanga e
whakamotuhaketia ai he mema mo nga Maori ake
ano, E mea ana au he pai nui kei tenei Pire.
Te PITIROI. —Na, mo te mahi pooti Maori, e
mea ana au kaore i marama rawa tenei
Pire. Me whakaae he mema mo ratou e rite ana ki
te mea e tika ana mo te tokomahatanga o ratou; ko
te mea tenei e tohe nei ratou; ka pena he ritenga ka
tae o ratou mema ki te whitu ki te waru; engari ka
kore ratou e utu reiti, kaua ratou e tukua kia pooti
i nga pootitanga mema Pakeha. E whakahe rawa
ana ahau ki tenei tikanga e pooti rua nei nga Maori
mo o ratou mema ano me nga mema Pakeha hoki.
He mea kino rawa ia; he mea ia e ahei ai etahi ta-
ngata ngakau tinihanga te mahi raweke i nga pooti
maha (ara, a nga Maori) kia hoatu ai ki ta ratou ta-
ngata e pai ai aua tangata ngakau tinihanga.
Mr. NAHE. —E te Tumuaki, kua rua nga ra e
hurihuri ana te Whare i tenei Pire. Kua puta i roto
i te korerotanga nga kupu whakahe ki te rua pooti
a nga Maori—te pooti ki nga mema Maori me te
pooti ki nga mema Pakeha. Kaore au e mohio ana
me he mea e tika ana tena, e he ana ranei. E ma-
hara ana ahau, e wehi take kore ananga Pakeha ki te
pooti rua a nga Maori. Nga mema Pakeha i pooti-
tia e nga Maori kaore e mahue ana i a ratou te mahi
tikanga mo o ratou, hoa Pakeha i runga i te hiahia o
nga hoa Maori i pooti ki a ratou. Heoi pea te mea
e rere ke ai, ara he Pakeha ke pea e pootitia ina tu
nga Maori ki te rouru. E kore hoki tena mema Pa-
keha e tautoko i nga mea e mate ai ona hoa Pakeha,
hei oranga e ora ai ona hoa Maori. E kore e tika
of the Government we find that the Maories are not
required to pay the tax. I believe it is impossible to
put the Maories on the same footing as ourselves in
every respect; but, at the same rime, I think that the
provision that Maories who pay rates should be
placed upon the roll will be of some educational
value. In the course of time the number of Maories
on the roll will become larger, and I do not see that
any harm will result from ultimately giving them the
same privileges as ourselves. 1 do not believe that
the system of giving the Maories special representa-
tion in this House is correct in principle; but I ap-
prehend that before very long that will pass away,
and they will be represented here in very much the
same way as are the Europeans.
Mr. HOBBS. —As regards the Maori vote, I know
there are many gentlemen in this House who look
upon it with strong feelings; but, after all, how many
Maories are on the roll? Why, very few in-
deed; and if we can by this Bill get them to in-
dividualize their titles and come on to the rate-
payers' roll I think we shall he doing a very good
thing. But sometimes there arc twenty or thirty
names of Natives on a Crown grant, and, if all those
names were placed on the roll, they would have too
much power given to them. My idea is that they
should individualize their titles. I do not think the
Maories are properly represented in this House, and
I am glad to find that several honorable gentleman
agree with me in that opinion. Certainly the present
Maori members are intelligent men, and are competent
to inform the other Natives outside of what is being
done in Parliament, and I am sure they do a great
deal of good in the country. What we have to do is
to set them a good example, and we, as Europeans,
should endeavour to show them that we can be
honest in politics as well as in other matters. It is
a serious thing when Europeans lend themselves to
electioneering tricks, which cause the Maories to
look upon them with distrust, and to think that they
have disgraced themselves. I hope the time will
soon arrive when there will be no need for special re-
presentation for the Maories. I believe great good
will result from the passing of this Bill.
Mr. FITZROY.. —With reference to the Maori
franchise, I do not think the Bill is sufficiently ex-
plicit. We should either give them representation
in proportion to their numbers—and this I believe
they unanimously consider their due: that would in-
crease their numbers in this House to seven or eight
—or, on the other hand, they should not be allowed
to vote for European members unless they had paid
their rates and taxes. I altogether object to the
present system of franchise, under which Maories
are entitled to vote for their own people and also for
Europeans. It acts very viciously, and it enables
unscrupulous persons to manipulate large numbers
of votes, and have them given in any direction they
choose.
Mr. NAHE. —Sir, this Bill has now been tinder the
attention of the House for the last two days. Ob-
jections have been raised during the discussion to
the dual vote of the Maories—to the vote that they
have for the Maories, and the vote they have for the
Europeans. I do not know whether that is just or
not. I think the Europeans are afraid, without any
reason, of the dual vote which the Maories exercise.
The Europeans who are elected by the Maori vote
do not sacrifice the interests of their European con-
stituents to the desires of their Maori constituents.
The only difference is that possibly a different Euro-
pean may be elected through the Maories being put
upon the roll. That European is not likely to advo-
cate anything that would damage his European con-

kia whakakorea te pooti rua a nga Maori. Ma taua
rua pooti e mohio ai ratou e tiakina ana e te Pakeha
nga mea pai mo ratou mo nga Maori, ara nga mea e
tika ai ratou. Ki te mea ka whakanuia he mema
Maori ki te Whare nei, katahi au ka pai kia mahue
te rua pooti. Otira ki te mea ka pera, katahi pea
ka kiia he tikanga tino wehe ke ia i nga iwi e rua.
No konei au ka mea kia kaua te Whare e pouri mo
tenei tika nui e waiho ana i te iwi Maori—kaua e
nui rawa te whakaaro ki taua mea. Me waiho ia he
oranga ngakau mo ratou, hei tikanga ako hoki i a
ratou. E toru ano nga wehenga o nga tangata o
tenei koroni, e rua nga taha kei nga Maori, ko te
Pakeha te toru. Me waiho tonu tenei tikanga, kia
kite tera wehenga o nga Maori e naahi ana te Pake-
ha ki te oranga mo ratou. Ki te mea ka uauatia
tenei mea, ka kataina tetahi wehenga o nga Maori e
tetahi wehenga. Mo te uru o nga Maori ki nga
huuri, ka nui taku whakapai ki tena, ara kei nga
whakawakanga e pa ana ki nga Maori. Ka tautoko
au i tenei Pire. E kore au e korero i te nuinga atu
o nga tikanga o te Pire, engari he tautoko tonu
taku i te Pire nei. He Pire ia na matou—he Pire
Kawanatanga—a tera e nui te riri o te Whare ki au
ki te mea ka kii au kia whakarerea-ketia etahi o nga
tikanga o te Pire nei. I whakahe etahi o nga mema
o tenei Whare ki taku mahi ki te Aroha wahi; no
kona ka tautoko au i tenei Pire.
MAKI MINI. —Mo nga pooti Maori, kua nui taku
hurihuri i nga tikanga o te Pire mo tena. He nui
te wehi o etahi mema kei noho he Maori ki roto ki
tenei Whare. Ko au, kaore rawa au e wehi ana;
he nui hoki nga Maori kei te takiwa i a au, nui atu
i to etahi takiwa o nga mema katoa o tenei Whare.
Kaore au e wehi ana kei nui rawa he mana i a ratou
i runga i tenei tikanga. E whakaae ana au ki te
kupu a te Minita Maori e ki nei kia whakahautia
nga Maori kia whakauru ratou ki nga rouru, penei
me nga Pakeha. He mea nui tena hei whakaaronga
mo te Whare, ko te mea pai rawa ia o taua Pire.
Kaore he tikanga hou e hoatu ana e taua Pire ki
nga Maori e kore ana i a ratou inaianei.
I tenei wa e nui atu ana i te 120 nga Runanga Kura Teme-
para kei Niu Tirani.
E ki ana te Taima nupepa mea ate karangatia ai a Taiaroa
kia uru ia ki te Whare ki Runga 3 a he tokomaha nga tangata
e tauwhainga ana kia riro i tetahi o ratou tona turanga! roto i to
Whare ti raro.
Me tono nga Maori e tuhituhi rota ana ki te Wananga kia
taia a ratou reta ki nga reo e rua, kia mohiotia ai e nga Pakeha.
Ko tenei, ko nga Maori anake e mohio ana.
E korerotia ana tora tetahi manu hawhe-kaihe kua nui haere
i te takiwa ki Waitara, Taranaki. He hua taua manu no te
aitanga a te manu pikaokao nei ana raua ko te kiwi o te nga-
here. Tora hoki taua manu kei etahi atu wahi ano.
Tera te korero kei te Wikiri Niuhi, nupepa o Akarana, e
mea ana i tetahi huinga o te Hahi i Akarana i mua tata ake
nei, i ki a te Karaka, Atirikona, o Waimate, na tona papa i
ora ai a Ta Hori Kerei i mua ai, i kore ai e taona ki te hangi
Maori. Tera te tangeo ki te arero me he mea i pera. Te
tikanga o taua wa i mua ra, ma te tangata e patua ana e
puranga i nga wahie mo te hangi mona. E tika ana tia
whakawhetai a Ta Hori mona kaore i whakakuaretia peratia.
Otira e rite ana ki tana mahi inaianei—e puranga ana hoki i
te mate mona, e wahawaha ana i te wahie hei tahu ahi e wera
ai ia a mua ake nei.
stituents for the advantage of the Maori. I do not
think it is right to put an end to the dual vote which
the Maories at present exercise. The fact of their
having two votes tends to educate the Maories into the
belief that their interests are protected by the Euro-
peans. If the number of Maori members is to be
increased, then I should waive that point. But
still, on that head, it may be thought that it would
be tending in the direction of a complete separation
between the two races. I therefore hope that the
House will not be dark on account of this great
privilege being continued to the Native people. Do
not think too much of it. Let it be considered as
tending in the direction of making their minds easy
and educating them. There are actually three
parties in this colony, two parties of Natives, and
the Europeans are the third party. Let this
thing be as it is now, so that the other party of
Maories may see that the Europeans are working
for their benefit. If this thing is worked harshly,
one section of the Native race will laugh at the
others. With reference to the admission of Maories
to sit on juries, I very much approve of that in cases
where the Maories are concerned. I support this
Bill. I ana not going into details as to the rest. of
the measure, but support it generally. It is a Bill
of ours—the Government Bill—and the House will
be very angry with me if I attempt to suggest any
alterations in its provisions. My proceedings in re-
spect to the Te Aroha Block were taken exception to
by members of this House. Therefore I shall sup-
port this Bill entirely.
Mr. McMINN. —With regard to the Native votes,
I may say I have given a good deal of thought to
the provisions in the Bill in that respect. Some
honorable members seem very much frightened at
having Maories sitting in this House. I am not at
all frightened at it, and I represent a district which
contains a larger number of Maories than any other
district represented in this House. I am not the
least afraid that this provision would give them too
much power. I cordially agree with those remarks
of the Native Minister in which he urged that the
Maories should be encouraged to enrol themselves
as Europeans do. That is a most important point
for the House to consider, and it is one of the best
points in the Bill. The Bill does not give the
Maories any more advantages than they possess
already.
There are at the present time more than 120 Good Templar
Lodges in New Zealand.
The Times states that Taiaroa is to be called to the Upper
House, and that; several candidates will contest the vacancy for
the House of Representatives.
Native correspondents of the Wananga should request the
editor of that paper to print their letters in both languages, so
that they can be read by Europeans. As it is, none but Maories.

The Auckland Weekly News says that Archdeacon Clarke,
of Waimate, lately made a statement at a church meeting in
Auckland, that Sir George Grey was once saved from a Maori
oven through the instrumentality of his (Mr. Clarke's) father.
We imagine they would have found the flavor of the dish
slightly pungent". It was customary among the refined
epicures of that time to mate the victim carry the wood to.

should be thankful that he escaped so great a humiliation.
History repeats itself—he is even now engaged " piling up the
agony, " adding fuel to a political fire which will eventually
scorch him.
