By TalCErai*-!'!' 68 ' 5 Association.
Westport, January 26. Two car loads of representative citizens, including ladies, to-day made a tour of the Buller Gorge coal and timber fields, and spent some tune exaniinine the coal mines ot Messrs. Builey Bros., mid mines situated right m tie heart of the Gorge, and entered from the roadside. The opinion was, «xprcssoU that could the women of the Dominion onlv know tho vast amount of easily-ac-cessible coal lying undeveloped in this Gorze through the lack of a few miles ot railway they would raise sunn an outcry that no Government would allow the present conditions to continue. It is intended to forward n full report with photographs to -the loadjng papers ■ in Now Zealand for insertion therein, «> as to let. the nublic know that there is no Bhorlhee of coal, hut merely on apathy in providing the means whereby the lecminir millions of tons may lie placed on the market.
