Urewera Lands.
Recently the Taumarunui papers and the Settlers' Association of that district made strong representations to the Government to have the "reservation" over a certain large area of provisional State forest in that locality lifted, and we are pleased to note that after full investigation the Minister has decided that the "reservation" must stand. In pleasingly marked contrast to the attitude adopted in this instance by the local newspaper is the stand taken by the Poverty Bay Herald, W'hakatane Press, East Coast Guardian, and, many other papers on the question of the Urewera Lands, for articles have recently appeared in these papers along the lines of the plea appearing in our last issue for proper demarcation of the forest areas of this territory to be undertaken before the lands are opened up for settlement.
