WAIBI TAILINGB TO THE EDITOR, Sib,—Tho suggestion of J.V.B-. in rjgard to the disposal of Waihi is v which I agree with in TheViption oi ; ** sending them out to tkeToy of Plenty is unique and original, a&Tif oarriod out would open great possibilities, J.Y,B, urges tLat the race through the K»ti&ati , i Heads would scatter any aoeuinulations > ✓ and distribute them over the floor of the - Bay of Plenty, thus adding to our limited fishing grounds, I will go further, and urge that the accumulations would soatter themselves in time up and down the' coast, across Cook's Strait, and along the South Island shores, affording the sand; bottom (but the fish love so well. They would also oross the Tasman tied spread themselves out on the coast of Australia, and find their way to the North Sea by way of the South Pacific, Behring Sea and Strait, and the Arctio Ocean, and thence on to the North Pole; '■' or, on the other hand, through the South Pacific, round Cape Horn into the Atlantic, thence on to Gibraltar, silting up the . Mediterranean and Black Sea, and dam- ' 1 ming the Nile; they would then' go on to the Desert of Sahara, This would make Waihi famous for its tailings as well as its bullion; The ' tunnelling through the hills would give ample work for tho unemployed for years - after, the Main' lrunk line was finished. , By all moans let us have the soheine.—l [ auii oto M i~ Jules Yernh Bunkum, •
