THE LAND BILL.
ATTITUDE OF GOVERNMENT
FREEHOLDERS.
Publicity has been given to a rumour that freeholders on the. Government benches were v about -to, interView" fcHb Prime, Minister to protest against the compulsory leasing clauses of the Land Bill. There appears, however, to be no grounds for the statement beyond the natural objection of freeholders to the proposals. The /general: feeling of freeholders and leaseholders alike soems to be that as the Land Bill has not yet come before the Lands to which it was referred, and will probably not be considered'by that Committee for some time yet; it would \be premature to make representations for or against ; any part of it. The general opinion is that the Land Bill will be radically altered by the Committee; ;and will not be reported to thfi House early enough to (jive it any chance of passing this session.
