Reference to land valuation and native land is made as follows in a circular issued to members of Parliament by the New Zealand Farmers' Union: — "It- is well-known, to you that the present system of Government land valuations are not satisfactory. The so-called unimproved value of land has been inflated at the expense of the owners' improvements, and this point very few will have the hardihood to deny, or even debate. You are asked to give this subject your consideration. The native land question is one which my executive consider should be amongst the very first subjects taken by the House. The present position is most unsatisfactory to the European settler and also to the native owner, and your help in this matter is confidently looked for. The union as a whole demand that the native should have all the rights, and accept all the responsibilities of the European, and in this opinion a very large section of the electors of the Dominion agree." On remand, Thomas Langley, a young man, was charged in the SS.M. Court to-day with having assaulted a little girl, under five years of age, at the I Lower Hutfc. After hearing the evidence Mr. W. G. Riddell, S.M., on the application of Sub-Inspector Norwood, allowed the charge to be reduced to one of common assault. Accu&ed pleaded not guilty. He gave evidence, and the case was adjourned until this evening, in order that ceitaiu, witnesses might bo subDoenafldi
