LANDLESS NATIVES.
Strong complaints about noxious weeds and innumerable rabbits on reserves for the South Island natives were made by Mr Anderson in the House la3t week when the Native Estimates were under discussion. He ui'ged the Minister to give the matter prompt attention for the Bake ot settlers whose lands were being severely prejudiced. "We shall have to have some sort of Royal Commission to inquire into the circumstances," declared the Native Minister. He quite admitted that affairs were not satisfactory, either to the pakeha ot the native. He wished to get a full report on the position before he brought in any legislation. He intended next session to introduce a Bill dealing with the landless natives of the South.
