KAPAI TE MAORI!

Is it not just about time that the s.s. Maori was put back to the WellingtonLyttelton'running? The vessel has been lying indolently at Port Chalmers for some time now, and is likely to lie there unless the people concerned make the Union Company acquainted with the fact that thero is a great deal of dissatisfaction owing to the discomfort and delay caused by the existing arrangement. It is quite possible that the Union Company lias itself to thank for educating the taste of the public in the matter of swift and luxurious travel. The public is proud of the Union Company and the Wahine and the Maori, but has got pretty tired of the old Mararoa, good seaboat though she is. "VVb should imagine that if the Union Company were reminded by the Christchurch and "Wellington Chambers of Commerce that the public js tired of travelling on a slow leg ono day and a quick leg the other, and how glad and proud everyone would bo to see the Wahine and Maori making alternative voyages, Sir James Mills and his codirectors would bo pleased and gratified. We are quite sure that the matter has been inadvertently overlooked.
