Whenua Maori.
MO TE TAHA KI NGA WHENUA MAORI.
Honore W. Makitonore, Minita Maori, i roto i tona kauhau i Rotorua, ka mea kei te hamama tonu nga tangata kite kore whe-' nua hei nohoanga, ka mea .ia e 500,000 eka e tau ana i te tau a te Kawanatanga hei nohoanga tangata. Ko te putake nui kite whakanoho i nga whenua kite Pakeha, kua puta hoki tetahi arai, me pehea hoki nga Maori ? ko tetahi take nui hoki kite awhina«i nga Maori kite mahi i o ratou whenua ; tena kaore he whenua e toe. Mo te taha ki nga pito whenua o te Maori. I te tau kua taha ake nei e 700,000 eka ~i whakaputaina hei nohoanga mo te Pakeha; kotahi miriona eka i nga tau e rua. He nui nga Maori e tika ana kia tiakina e te ture mo ratou whenua ; i kaha a Timi Kara kite whakahaere i
tenei take kia pai te haere a nga iwi e rua. I tenei tuunga o te Paremata e haere mai r.ei tena ka takoto i a ia tetahi Pire whakarapopoto i nga whakataunga a te Kooti Whenua Maori, i ona ake whakaaro, me nga take e titiro iho ana ia hei painga i roto i te Ture o te tau 1909. Me rite tonu nga whenua Maori ki o nga Pakeha, ara, te utu reiti, taake; ko nga arai i naianei ma te ture ka takoto nei ia ia kite aroaro ote Paremata e whakataha. Ko te whakaaro o te Kawanatanga i tenei tuunga o te Paremata he mahi i tetahi Ture e ahei ai ko nga whenua Maori kaore e nohoia ana me taka ki raro i te Ture nohonoho whenua Maori, kia ahei ai te tango hei whenua nohonohoanga mo te Pakeha. Mehemea nga taitara kei te ahua raruraru, ko nga moni me takoto i roto i te ringaringa o te Kai-Tiaki kia tae kite wa e tika ai te rerenga o nga taitara ka tahi ka puta nga moni utu o taua, a, o aua whenua ranei.
