DEFERRED PAYMENT SETTLERS.
Wellington, Augusts. The following reports were brought up and read in the House to-day-Tho Waste Lands Committee report that the case of a number of the deferred payment settlers is deserving of consideration at the hands of the Legislature, so as to enable them to fulfil their engagements, and with this view the Committee hope to submit suggestions when its report” on the Government Land Bill it brought up. The Committee report on the Deferred Payment Settlers Relief Bill that, after taking evidence as to the working of the system, the Committee is of the opinion that the provisions of this Bill do not meet tho requirement of the case, because—(l) The proposed mode of securing relief would be found cumbersome in practice,; (2) because tho mode of obtaining relief would bo costly, as involving heavy law expenses to applicants ; (3) because it is specially objectionable as establishing a omm* paratively inexperienced Court to review the decisions of a responsible department having both experience and practical training to guide it.
