MR DARGAVILLE, M.H.R., AT AUCKLAND.
[By Telegraph.] Auckland, May 17. Mr Wm. Dargaville met his City South constituents to-night at St James’ Hall, There was a good attendance, and he was well received. He condemned Major Atkinson’s scheme of compulsory insurance, Mr Rolleston’s management of Crown lands, and Mr Bryce’s management of Native lands. He said the two latter Ministers were only stop-gaps to promised settlement of the lands of the colony. He praised Mr Bryce’s administration of native affairs, and thought his removal frond the post of Native Minister would be a misfortune, but that the question should be removed from the region of party politics. As to the Education Act, he would oppose all tinkering with it, A vote of thanks and confidence was passed.
