New Zealand Finance and the Tariff.
[Per Press Association.] Sydney, September 24. I The Herald agrees with the Statist > that it is better to wait until New Zealand's finances are in a sounder position before converting a loan, but it considers there is not much in point, as when | the credit of the colony improves the securities will be of use and a considerably larger amount of three per cents, will have to be given for conversion. In reference to the fruit duty, it says that as the New Zealand Government is intent on its treaties, perhaps the increase in the duty on an article so largely supplied by Australia was not unconnected with the preferential treatment proposed to be accorded to Adelaide. It hoped the New Zealand Government would not insist on the increase, especially when New South Wales was on tho poiut of removing the barriers to intercolonial exchange.
