HE TANGATA AHUWHENUA.
J. PIERPONT MORGAN. NO tera tau i whakatungia ai tetahi kamupene mahi rino ki Amerika, he kamupene nui whakaharahara. Kua huia katqatia e tenei kamupene kia kotahi nga kamupene rino o Amerika. Kua tau te wehi ki nga kamupene rino o Ingarangi, he wehi kei tukua e tenei kumupene te utu o te rino ka mate ratou. Ko te tangata whakahaere o tenei knmupno ko Hemi Piapono Mokena, he tangata tino matau he tangata nui atu te moni ki a ia. He maha nga kamupene kei Amerika ko ia te kaiwhakahaere. E 21 nga raina rerewe nona ake koia hoki te kai whakahaere ; e whai hea ana ia ki etahi atu rerewe me elahr ate kamupene. Kua hokona e ia tetahi kamupene lima nui e whakawhitiwhiti ana i waenganui o Amerika me Uropi. I runga i tana hokonga i tenei kamupene ka tu te wehi ki Ingarangi. E 250, 000 nga tangata kei raro i tona mana e mahi ana, hui atu ki nga wahine tamariki a enei mano e tata ana kite 1,000,000 nga tangata e whangaia ana e Piapono Mokena, ara nui atu i nga tangata katoa o Niu Tireni nei, Maori pakeha. Ko te tino mahi a tenei tangata he mahi peeke. E uru ana ana moni ki nga mahi nunui o Amerika o Ingarangi, o Tiamani me Parani. Ka toru ana whakaoranga i te Kawanatanga o te Unaititi Teiti i te korenga he moni hei whakahaere mo nga mahi. He tangata mohio atu ia kite titiro i nga mahi e whai hua. He maha nga kamupene nana i kore ai e pekerapu. Ehara nga matua o Piapono Mokena i te rawakore pera me o Anaru Kaneki. I aia whakaakona ia kite kura. He tangata kaha atu kite mahi, he hohoro hoki kite mahi. Kaore e nui ana kupu, he tangata kaore e pirangi ki nga mahi e huihui nui ana te tangata. Heoi ano tana tino takaro he whakarere iata, engari me tana mahi ano kite titiro i ana pukapuka. Ko enei nga kupu a etahi tangata e mohio ana ki a Piapono Mokena : “ Ko tana i whakaaro ai ko tana ano i whakaae ai.” “ Kahore tana kupu e taka.” “ Kahore ana mahi tahae.” “ I ana mahi he rangatira ana tikanga katoa.” Kaore a Piapono Mokena e rite ki etahi tangata e nui nei te moni ka ka whakahihi, kaore e aro ako ake ki nga mahi o te Whakapono.
He tangata ia e haere tonu ana kite karakia e tautoko ana hoki i nga mahi o tona pariha Kcia tetahi o nga hahi-watene o tona wharekarakia. Nana i hanga tetahi kura hei whakaako i nga tamariki tutu e haereere noa ana i nga tiriti, king 1 mahi ote Whakapono. He nui hcki aua mom kua hoatu e ia ki nga mahi pan M > tetahi Kura Tak ha £200,000. Mo te hohipera e tata ana ki tana whare-karakia. £2.-] ',OOO. Mo tetahi wha-e-kar kin. /Too,ooo.

Tera atu ano te nuinga o ana mahi nunui i tuku moni ai ia, engari koia nei nga mea i tino mohiotia hei whakaatu i te ahua o nga mahi e tautokona ana e ia. Kaati ake pea nga kupu ruarua nei mo tenei tangata kaha o te ao mo J. Pierpont Morgan.
