MAKURI SCHEME.
The. delegates of .local bodies who visited Makuri yesterday were unanimous in the opinion that the capacity of the Makuri river is sufficient to generate electrical power to serve the whole of the townships for at least fifty miles around. The Government has had full reports from responsible officers, and it is also, apparently, satisfied with the practicability, and utility of the schemeIt now remains for the townships interested to follow up their resolution on the subject with assurances that the power, if supplied, will be immediately utilised; There seema no reason why the Makuri scheme, which is tlie' cheapest' of those. in contemplation, should'riot be among the first undertaken.
