HAWERA.
This day. Satisfactory progress of the Government Policy, Mr Parris and the Chief Surveyor roughly defined the native reserves on the Waimate Plains. The Chiefs when told by Mr Parris made no comment and were very friendly. So far things are working satisfactorily. It is reported that the Government are going to employ two of the local native police who have interests on the Plains to assist as guides in cutting the bush road from Stratford to Opunake, and if true this will probably lead to complications. The majority do not desire to interfere with the European working parties, but are determined to shoot down any Maori owners of the disputed land employed by the Government. All the natives were warned of this last year.
