MAORIS AND EUROPEANS.
"WALKING STEP IN STEP."
DUTIES TO NATIVE RACE.
[BY TELEGRAPH.—OWN CORRESPONDENT.] WELLINGTON, Sunday.
The opinion that the European could still help his brother Maori was expressed by the Governor-General, Lord Bledisloe, at an Orphans' Club gathering last evening. After saying that the Maoris were the only native people in the British Empire who were walking step in step with the Europeans as comrades of equal status, His Excellency said: "Not only should they be kept as a separate raco as far as that is possible, but they should be endowed with all the qualities of enterprise and, abovo all, the good physical standards of which we, as Britishers, are ourselves proud."
