IS IT A NEW NATIVE POLICY?
« WHAT MR. HBRRIES WANTS TO KNOW. Mr. Herrics has intimated that ho will ask the Prime Minister whether t-lio following portion of tlie Hon. Sir J. FindLy's Farnell speech, as reported in tlic "New Zealand Times" of October 10, is an exposition of tho new Native policy of the Government or of Sir J. Findlay: "He believed the dav was not far distant when, with tho heightened standard of education among the race, special representation of tho Maoris in Parliament would bo unnecessary. Tho Maori, as that day neared, must be placed in the same position as the European iu regard to the duties of citizenship and tho use of the land. He owned that day was coming fast"; and (2) if this policy, which has been always advocated by the Opposition and opposed hitherto by the Government, is to be adopted by tho Government, will they bring down legislation this session to give effect to it ?
