Marokopa-Kiritehere.

(FROM OUR OWN COKRKSPUNDEh’T). Both Msrokopa and Kiiitehere are still alive nod making progress. Sixty or fevenly tons of cirgo wer landed during tbe hat mouth, the s.«. Rjtnesay making two trips and the 8.9. Pitwitoi cne. TfiF bulk if 'be Cargo consisted of grass seed, the last boat bringing 100 sacks fur Mr Joncs=, hosidci about 20 tons of goods for Mr Stanley, who in storting a store. Opposition is the life of trade, and I wish Mr Stanley eaccess iu his new undertaking.

It is about time that the Roads De i partment took steps to provide a land- , iog, erect a goods shed aud lay a road to connect the wharf with the Waipawa and Marokopa roads. Ridiculous as it may seem, although steamers visit the port about twice a month there is no landing and road to connect therewith. Tbe public have to ’respass on private property to get their goods. A meeting of the dairy factory committee waa held on the 20ih inst., when it wri decided to lucoporate aud register the company so as to secure a site and make arrangements for starting in 1910, it being doab-ifal if pre parations can be made for next season ”■ I hear that the Marokopa Company’s sawmill is reidy for catting timber.
