Conference with Maori Chiefs.
Wellington, October 23.
A conference was held at the Parliamentary buildings on 23rd instant, between the Premier, the Native Minister, and a number of representative Maoris. Most of the tribes were represented, except some of those of the West Coast. The object of the conference was to discuss the boundaries of districts, and to arrange other matters with a view to giving effect to the Maori Councils Act and Maori Lands Administration Act passed during the recent session of Parliament. Satisfactory work in this direction was done. Mr Seddon. in his speech, at the conclusion of which he was heartily cheered, said that a new day had dawned for the Maori people.
