RESIGNATION OF THE NATIVE MINISTER.
[PBBBS ASSOCIATION TEEEGBAM.] WELLINGTON, January 10. Mr Bryce this afternoon forwarded his resignation as Native Minister to the Premier. It is understood that he has done this in oonsequence of the Cabinet declining to accept his advice that immediate active measures should be adopted towards Parihaka and To Whiti. He parts with his colleagues on perfectly friendly terms. Their reason for refusing to adopt his policy is that they are pledged to Parliament to endeavor to carry out the report of the West Coast Commissioners before trying other measures. His resignation was received by the Premier at a late hour this evening. Mr Rolleston will probably take temporary charge of tho Native Department, but nothing definite is settled or even discussed amongst Ministers.
