THE IMMIGRATION QUESTION.
It is ridiculous to suppose that a rich and fertile country like New Zealand, with a European population of less than a million, is unable to absorb all the immigration that is coming or is lilcely to come to its shores, says the Auckland "Herald." Its greatest need is population, but in order to prevent excessive crowding in the towns and a consequent surplus of labour, it is imperative that land should be made easily and readily accessible to all who seek it. Were this done the pressure in the cities would be relieved as if by magic, and an enormous impetus would be given to a variety of industries.
