THE TOURISTS' RESORTS.
The Hon. T. Mackenzie aijomits that the tourist resc-rts in !">ew Zealand, as run by the Goveriwuient, can never bo m;?.,de to pay. Hois is a conclusion which. a large %ecftion of the community has long smoe arrived at. Too much money has been squandered in the past m catering for tourists, and too little spent in developing the resources oi the country. JJoad'S and' bridges are of far greater importance to the country' than the dloK'ars oi a few American or Continental visitors. Even the railway ' eeryice has been run in- the interest ! of the tourist instead of that of the ; permanent settler. It is time this i isort of, thing p.ut a. stop to, and 'it is 'pfeajsiing to note - that, even ot this late hour, the Minister shows some indication of coming /to reason.
