WEST COAST ROYAL COMMISSION. FINAL REPORT OF THE COMMISSIONER APPOINTED UNDER "THE WEST COAST SETTLEMENT (NORTH ISLAND) ACT, 1880."

Presented to both Houses of the General Assembly by Command of His Excellency.

Hon. Sir W. Fox, West Coast Commissioner, to the Hon. the Native Minister. West Coast Commission Office, - , . gIE _ Wellington, 3rd June, 1884. I have the honour to forward a final report upon the work of my Commission, and to request that you will lay the same before His Excellency the Governor. I naYe > &c -> William Eox, . ■ West Coast Commissioner. The Hon. the Native Minister, Wellington.

To His Excellency the Hon. Sir William Francis Drummond Jebvois, G.C.M.G., C.8., &c, &c, Governor of New Zealand. Mat it please your Excellency, — Having now completed the work the execution of which was intrusted to me by a Commission issued by your Excellency's predecessor Sir Arthur H. Gordon on the 23rd December, 1880, and subsequently extended by yourself to the 30th June instant, I have the honour to resign the same into your Excellency's hands. While doing so, I respectfully ask your Excellency to allow me to make a few remarks explanatory of the manner In which I have endeavoured to fulfil the duty Imposed upon me. ' ' It was very gratifying to Sir Dillon Bell and myself that, when the reports, which were the result of seven months' continuous labour, on the \V est Coast and among the records of the Native Office, were laid before Parliament m the session ot 3 880 they met with the almost unanimous approval of both Houses, bir George Grey', the leader of the Opposition in the House of Representatives, spoke in extremely generous terms of the Commissioners and then- work, and went so lar as to propose that, by a Bill then under discussion, the West Coast Settlement (North Island) Bill, Parliament should give a promise to the Natives that the report or the Commissioners should be wholly carried out: "This, in my mind he saiS, is " the one thing requisite above all others to secure peace for the future. JNow " that we have ascertained what they are entitled to, I taink a specific and " definite promise should be made that they shall positively have ail that tlie I—A. sb.

" Commissioners have recommended, and that, to the very last item, the report shall ** be strictly and fairly carried out. Let it be seen exactly what these gentlemen " have thought the Natives were entitled to, and let the Natives be assured " positively that, the Court having sat, the recommendations shall be fulfilled. We " ourselves chose what I must call the Judges in this case; we chose the peculiar " Court which was to settle these claims ;_ we chose the manner in which the differ- '" ences which had been so long outstanding should be brought to a close; and, a " decision having been pronounced, we are bound in all honour and integrity to "" acquiesce in it and carry it out, and-one Bill should simply contain provisions "forgiving effect to the recommendations-of the Commissioners. It is due to '" them, and to what I call their great and just judgment I will now "go one degree further. I had hoped that the Native Minister would stand up " and say that those minds which had prepared those reports, those minds which had " devoted so much care and attention to the subject, shall be the minds to which " the carrying-out of the reports shall be intrusted; that the same individuals who " had conceived those just and generous proposals shall, if they choose to under- " take the further duty, be intrusted with the greater toil and trouble of carrying *' out the conceptions which they have formed in their own minds. If the " Government do that I believe they will do much to conciliate the Natives on " the West Coast; I think they 'will give general satisfaction to the European " population; and I think they will do this further great thing: that they will " enable two gentlemen who for so many years have served this colony, in the " decline of life and at the close of their career, to finish those careers, which will " be so much looked on hereafter, by completing the greatest and best work they *' have ever hitherto been able to achieve." — Hansard, Vol. xxxvii., p. 483. The Government, not thinking it consistent with their position as Responsible Ministers, did not choose to divest themselves of all control in the carrying-out of the recommendation of the Commissioners, and they therefore declined to adopt Sir George Grey's suggestion that a definite promise should be given by Act of Parliament. They proceeded, however, to give practical effect to his view by offering, immediately at the close of the session, the appointment of Commissioners to Sir .villon Bell and myself. We had both agreed to place our services at the disposal of the Government, when it was thought desirable to appoint Sir Dillon Bell to the office of Agent-General of the Colony in England, which of course prevented his taking part in the work of the Commission. The Government then asked me to go on with it, either alone or with any colleague I might choose. Although sensible of the very great responsibility I would incur, I preferred to undertake the task single-handed, rather than to be associated in the practical business with one who had not co-operated with me in the preliminary investigations and deliberations on which it was to be based; and the result was that, at the commencement of 1881, 1 undertook alone the duties of Commissioner. I have entered into this explanation in order that I might the more briefly summarize the history of what I have done. I determined from the first to act strictly in conformity with the spirit of the remarks of Sir George Grey above quoted, and to give effect to the very letter, as far as possible, to the recommendations made by Sir Dillon Bell and myself. This, it seemed to me, was the mind of Parliament, expressed by its approval of our reports. It is sufficient, therefore, for me to say that, in the recommendations 1 have since made to your Excellency of the action to be taken to enable your Excellency to fulfil all the outstanding pledges of the Government of the colony, actual or implied, towards the West Coast Natives, I have rigidly, in almost every particular, adhered to the course advised by Sir Dillon Bell and myself in our reports of 1880; and that I believe no single promise, great or small, actual or implied, now remains unfulfilled, and that no complication remains unsolved. The practical outcome of it is that every Maori in the Confiscated Block who has any right to be there has now his name inserted in some Crown grant, and is entitled to an interest, sometimes individual, sometimes tribal, in some reserve ok other, which will provide him with a settled homestead and the means of maintenance, and in many cases a considerable pecuniary income besides, arising from the leases of the surplus lands in excess of what are required for personal use. A complete list of the grants recommended by me

A.—sb

from the commencement to the close of my work, amounting to 392, is appended. The total area granted as reserves to tribes or individuals is 201,395 acres, and the number of grantees whose names are inserted in them is 5,289. Special reports on the circumstances of every case, where they were necessary, have from time to time been laid before your Excellency. There are also 12,764 acres on which reports have been made, but which, for reasons given, cannot at present be granted ; and 516 acres which have been dealt with in way of exchange. Of the various recommendations made by the Commissioners of 1880, a summary of which is contained in the "Third Report, page Ixiii., some were of things to be done by the Government outside of the practical work which fell to my lot. Among these were the construction of roads through various parts of the unsettled districts ; the survey and disposal, by public sale or otherwise, of the waste lands not required for Native reserves; the making of regulations for leasing the surplus lands within the reserves ; and others which did not require any further action on my part. These have all been efficiently carried out by the Government, in a manner which has secured the settlement of the country by Europeans to a very large extent, and which is fast converting a wilderness, which five years ago was the home only of pigs and wild cattle, into cultivated farms, interspersed with numerous villages, and traversed in numerous directions hy excellent roads. The extent to which this has been done will be shown on a map which is being prepared by the Government at my request, w rhich is of too large dimensions to accompany this report, but which the Government will, I believe, lay on the table of the House of Representatives. Maps exhibiting the reserves granted under my recommendations are appended to this report. Among this class of recommendations by the Commission of 1880, with giving effect to which I had nothing to do, there was one which was of vital importance to the progress and completion of the works. I allude to the disposal of that important factor in the solution of the problem, Te Whiti. In reference to that chief the Commission of 1880 had said, " The question of Parihaka is " still the point on which the settlement of this difficulty turns, and it is not less " hopeless now than ever to suppose that any settlement will be made which is not " made with Te Whiti "-—(Third Report, p. liii). "A time must soon be fixed " when the offers and promises of the Government must be either accepted or " refused once for all. No one will pretend that Te Whiti may on his side " keep the whole country-side in turmoil and danger as long as he likes, and that " the Government must be ready to redeem, their promises whenever he chooses. " .... If the Native people are to have the promises fulfilled, the English " settlers must have some guarantee that they, too, shall have done with this long " suspense, and may live on their land in security and peace " —(Third Report, p. liv). And again they say, "It seems to us that the time has come when, if " our suggestions are accepted by your Excellency, definite intimation can and 11 shall be given to Te Whiti of the manner in which it is proposed to deal with "the disputed districts : and he should be invited to concur in that { sharing of " the blanket' in which he appeared to acquiesce in his interview with Mr. " Mackay. But he should be made to understand that in any case the Govern- " ment is going to take its share. In what manner he should be approached " seems to us a matter for the consideration of your Excellency's Advisers " — (Third Report, p, lxiv). This recommendation of the Commissioners was responded to by His Excellency Sir Arthur Gordon, under the advice of his Ministers, on the 22nd December, 1880, despatching his Aide-de-Camp, Major Knollys, to Parihaka, with a very friendly invitation to Te Whiti in which he offered to receive him at Wellington with fitting hospitality " to listen to what he might have to say, and, " if wrong had been done, to do justice in accordance with the law and the will " of the Queen ;" or, if ho should consider the distance too great, the Governor offered to meet him either at New Plymouth or at some place on the road between that town and Hawera; ftiat is 4 within a few miles of Te Whiti's residence at Parihaka. The letter was couched in the most courteous and friendly terms. Te Whiti, however, vouchsafed no reply, except a remark about a "cooked potato,"

the significance of which not even the most expert Maori linguists have been able to explain.* The Government, however, in a spirit of wise forbearance, gave Te Whiti full time to consider his position and, if he thought proper, to avail himself of the opening afforded by the Governor's invitation. Preparation was made by the completion of several miles of road to enable a military force, if necessary, to be moved up to Parihaka. An experiment of releasing a large number of Maori prisoners was tried in the hope of mollifying Te Whiti's hardness, but which only led to his assuming a more determined and aggressive attitude, which at last seemed to threaten actual collision. About the month of August the Native Minister, Mr. Ilolleston, sought an interview with Te Whiti at Parihaka, wheii an exhaustive conversation of several hours' duration took place, ending in the" conviction of the former that there was no hope of Te Whiti listening to any proposal for a fair adjustment, that he meant to resist the law, and was determined to maintain his position of passive resistance, which might be converted at any time into hostile activity by the impetuosity of his followers, which was evidently getting beyond his control. It was then that (the Government having exhausted every means of conciliation, and made every preparation for the necessities which might arise) a proclamation was issued, on the 10th October, 1881, by Sir James Prendergast, the Officer Administering the Government in the absence of the Governor, Sir Arthur Gordon, in which, after reciting the various steps which had been taken, and quoting the recommendations from the reports of the Commissioners above referred to, Te Whiti was distinctly told that " he must now accept the proposals of the Government, or that those proposals might thenceforth be beyond " their reach;" and he was (not for the tirst time) informed what reserves the Government would make for him and his tribe. At the time fixed, sth November, 1881, he, having made no sign, was arrested by an armed force, without resistance, aud his followers, a large part of whom, were members of other tribes and had no tribal connection with Parihaka, were dispersed, and sent off to their legitimate homes. I have nothing to do with the political bearings of these events, and notice them only so far as they affected the progress of the work of my Commission. From that aspect the action of the Government could not have been more opportune than it was. If it had been precipitated at any earlier time ; if any false issue, such as the arrest of Hiroki, had been taken, instead of holding Te Whiti personally responsible as the head and front of the offending; if any attempt had been made to take him by surprise, so soon after the receipt of the Governor's invitation that he had not had time to consider his position, and might yet have accepted it; or if the step bad been taken before the then Native Minister and Minister of Lands, Mr. llolieston, had completed the many miles of road necessary to give access to Parihaka from Opunake and New Plymouth, it is more than probable that the attempt would have altogetlier failed and a state of affairs have resulted which would have been equally disastrous to the settlement of the country, the character of the Government, and the pacific execution of the work committed to my charge. The time and the manner in which the advice of the Commission of 1880 was carried out were equally propitious for the success of my operations. I had during the year 1881 very nearly completed all that was to be done to the south of Oeo. I had purposely begun my work at the southern end of the confiscated block, both because the Natives there were less immediately under the influence of Te Whiti, and because they had exhibited a desire; for the definition of their reserves and the issue of Crown grants, and I had met with no obstruction but the most cordial co-operation from most of them. I had also succeeded in allocating, with the entire acquiescence of the Natives, tin; large Continuous lleserve on the Waimate Plains, which had been the piece do resialance in the

* There was formerly a Maori custom, when a chief wished to secure an ally of another tribe, of cooking one end of a potato, leaving the other end raw.^Snd sending it to the party to bo negotiated with. If the latter ate the cooked end lie accepted the proffered alliance, if ho sent it back untasted he rejected the offer. In Appendix to Journals of the House of .Representatives, 1885, E., No. 14, p. 3, there is a somewhat similar expression used by William Thompson (Tarapipipi, the King-maker), in reply to a charge apparently of treachery made against him, and where allusion to the eating of a potato by two persons probably meant the same as an Arab would mean by a Statement that he had oaten some one's bread and Salt.

troubles of 1878-79. These having been completed, I had next to deal with those portions of the district in which the influence of Te Whiti was supreme. I had during the year had interviews with most of the hapus to the north of Oeo, including those in the Opunake Block of 45,000 acres, and those to-the north of Waitara, who were all devoted adherents of Te "Whiti; and, though I had been everywhere received with, civility, when I had approached the subject of the lands I had been told, as Sir D. Bell and myself had been before, to " talk to Te "Whiti about it;" while that chief refused even to talk with the Governor about it. With Te Whiti's capture and removal, however, an entire change took place, and from that time, or shortly afterwards, I received the co-operation of all the hapus, except that which occupied the Parihaka Block, who continued fd refuse to give the information as to tribal interests and other matters necessary to enable me to recommend their grants. By the assistance, however, of Hone Pihama, B/uakere, and one or two others, the required information was obtained, and your Excellency has, on my recommendation, executed the necessary grants on their behalf. I have appended, for your Excellency's information, a statement in detail of the expenses of my Commission, and of that of 1880, and also a statement of the amount received by the Government by the sale of the lands which have been tlie subject of the inquiry and recommendations of these Commissions. The total expense of both. Commissions to the 31st March, 188-1, has been £17,992; the results from the sale and perpetual leases of the lands, £301,000. Tour Excellency will no doubt, however, appreciate the fact that it is not the pecuniary advantage derived from the adjustment of the West Coast difficulties by which the colony will benefit so much, as by the facts that it has now fulfilled every promise and pledge, actual or implied, the non-performance of which lay at the bottom of much of the dissatisfaction in the minds of the Natives; that all causes of disaffection have been removed; and that there is hope that amicable relations between the races have been restored never again to be disturbed. It is a pity that, in other crises of the history of the colony, similar pacific solutions of its Native difficulties were not found available. In 1861, between the first New Plymouth war and the greater Waikato one, which shortly followed, as Premier and Native Minister (Sir George Grey being Governor and with his assent), I offered to the King Natives, at a large meeting at Hangatikei, to refer all the then existing difficulties arising out of the Waitara purchase, to a Commission consisting of one pakeha and two Maoris selected by the Natives, and one pakeha and two Maoris selected by the Governor. The proposition was referred to William Thompson (Tarapipipi), the guiding spirit of the King movement, and by him declined in writing. It was afterwards again discussed and rejected, somewhat contumeliously, at a great gathering at Peria, in Waikato, though its acceptance was then earnestly urged upon the Natives by Bishop Selwyn and by a deputation of the Ngatikahungunu tribe from Hawke's Bay, who had attended that meeting for the purpose. (See full particulars in Appendix to Journals, 1.883, E, No. 13, p. 5 ; Ibid, p. 14; and E, No. 12.) The idea of a mixed Commission was therefore not new in 1879, and it would in all probability have led in 1862, as it has now, to a pacific solution of those difficulties which for several years involved the two races in disastrous wars, carried on at a great cost, and with much loss of life and property. The refusal of that offer by the Natives would seem to have removed from the Government the responsibility for the disasters which followed during the several years of continuous wars. The only recommendation made by the Commission of 1880 to which the Government lias failed to give effect is that contained in section ix. of the Second Report, page xxxiv., that the sale of intoxicating liquors should be specially prohibited by law within the districts over which the operations of the Cpmmission had extended. Certainly in those portions of the districts between the Waingongoro and St^ny River, and between Waitara and White Cliffs, this could have been done without difficulty, in the absence of "any such provision the Licensing Committees of the localities have, in the unchecked exercise of the powers vested in them, scattered drink-shops with more than ordinary profusion, at short intervals, and in the very proximity of the largest Native reserves, all

over the country, the unhappy results of which, as foreseen by the Commissioners' of 1880, are too often evident to the eye of the most casual observer who visits llawera, Manaia, Opunake, or any other part .of the district. In conclusion, I may, I hope, be permitted to express my sense of the cordial co-operation which I have received in my labours from your Excellency's Ministers, and the gratification which I feel that they have been able to advise in every single instance the adoption of the recommendations which from time to time I have had the honour to make. Nor must I omit to record the grateful sense which I entertain of the invaluable assistance rendered by Major Parris (of whose services I was able, by an arrangement with the Government, to avail myself) in laboriously working out the practical details of a vast amount of very difficult business. His long experience in the service of the Government as Civil Commissioner^ in the 'Taranaki District; his extensive acquaintance with all the Natives in it'; his exact and minute acquaintance with the land titles and tribal relations; the great personal respect deservedly entertained for him by the Natives ;^his entire abstinence all through a long career from, all speculation in Native lands; these and many other qualifications which no other living person known to myself combined in. an equal degree, were faithfully and zealously, during the whole period of my operations, brought to bear by him in contributing to their success. lam also desirous of expressing my entire satisfaction with the services of Mr. Ernest Dillon Bell, who has filled the post of secretary both of the Commission of 1880 and that which I have since held, and whose zeal, industry, intelligence, tact, and ability have been to me of very great value. Which is with very great respect siibmitted to your Excellency. , William Pox. Wellington, 3rd June, 1884.
