THE OTEKAIKE ESTATE.
[by TLt.KftRAI'H. —PRESS association.] Ditnedin. Wednesday. The Minister for Lands, the Hon. R. McNab, explains that he was unintentionally misled by Mitchell when altering clause 80 of the Land Bill in regard to the preference question. He believed at the time Mitchell was sub-manager of the Otekaike Estate. There, is, he -ays, no need for an amending Act. The Government have taken a lesson from the Otekaike incident, and have dealt, with other applications since, but all have been adjudged on their merits. Considerable discretion will b» allowed in future, and will be taken advantage of.
