"HOW NOT TO DO IT."

(To the Editor Oi. Uie Evening Star). SlH,_Can you decipher the following extract from the "'Waikato Times?'—" Major Mair is we believe at the present moment ascertaining whether the views of the native tribe who gave their consent last year are still in the same direction, and if so, the whole available force of tha \rmed Constabulary in A\ aikato, some forty men,wili bo told off for the work. J. his is in reference to maidng-the road from WaiKato to Taupo. Is sending Major Mair another Native OtHccdodge—" How not to do it? \V hat can be the object of sending any Maori doctor to interfere l It is a well-known tact that not one of the race had a hand m opening it, yet there is nearly as much tniflic on it as from Mercer to Cam bridge seven years ago. It is also a well known fact that tiie natives are as eager tor the road to be formed as ws are. Then why send a native om'ce otlicial to ascertain what everybody knows ? The-road, as all the roads around Camb ridge, has been opened by Messrs. Firth, Buck -1 md, Wilson, Hay, and others, men m whom the natives have confidence, who are in no way connected with the Native department, and it a-iy hitch should happen to be in the way, either of these could do more towards righting it, than Hie whole department from McLean to the last sugared Native Assessor. These natives have n >thing to do wi:h the Governmen1, have never been corrupted oy it, know nothing of the flour and sugar game, but have had all to do with the non-ollicial, Pakeha. Ihey have confidence in him; what lie engages to do. lie does. Not so the Government, as a chief said to a friend the other day tinore. tihore, tihoro, all the same as the Government I suppose the Native Minister considers that it would not do to have so important a .work com pleted and such a patient cured without that hvbria mongrel, the Maori doctor. I want you, wiih your many eyes and cars.to look after this job, and be quite sure that if anything occurs to stop it, the blame will rest with the doctor. I venture to anirm that if Cambridge had had one of them stationed there, like Alexandra, to give without money and without price, from a pana kiu to a thrashing machine, it would be as none lossly helpless as the latter to-day. But thauKS to men I have named, you can go from v aikato to Napier without fear or hindrance. W mist with the Maori Major. TV Wheora, and Major Mair at Alexandra, the key to Taranaki, we seem as far off opening the road to it. as we are to going home in a flying machine. I am certain, sir, that were these costly professors of their ••black art" removed, and the natives lott to themselves and the settlers, Taranaki would bo as free to traffic from Waikato in twelve months, as is Napier to-day.—l am, &c.,O.ve who Knows. [We are glad to learn from our Alexandra correspondent that the "fears of one who knows lest the construction of the road should be baulked, are unfound, a detachment of Armed Constabulary having already left the frontier posts to commence work upon it. —Ed. E.S.]

Rinkers, beware !At Westport, one Vorley, a photographer, has recovered £10 10s damages, and costs £15 Is., from the proprietor of a skating rink, for injury to his health and business, through the noise made by the rinkers. Judge Weston sa id ; —"l n this case I conceive that the defendant must bo answerable for those, who at his invitation, with his sanction, and in his sight, embark jd in a ganii, one of the consequences of which would bo a noise in a greater or less degree, and from ■which the plaintiff has, it appears, suffered."

The following rich story is told in a lead ing article in the " Timaru Herald," on the shearers' strike :—"There was once in Can tifbury a fellow, whom we may call with out fear of contradiction an impostor"; one of those false shepherds who made a trade of professed religion. HLs plan was to go from one station to another during shearing, with a bag of tracts, but no money ; and to get board and lodging free by talking goody goody to the shearers, till tli^y let him sleep in their hut and share their tucker—and, we grieve to say, their liquor also. At one station, however, there was a black cook who had seen the same game played before ; and when our long-faced friend appeared, lie knew hinf at once by his style. So he called out " Hullo mate, where do you come from ?" " I come from Dunedin, my Christian brother." "Oh, do you?" said the darkey, with a string of epithets hardly in keeping with Christian fraternity—" and who the (something or other) do you work for there?" " I work for a Heavenly Master," replied the hypocrite. " Come now, that won't do," was the matter-of-fact reply, " I've been down at Dunedin till just lately, and I knows there weren't none o' that sort there when I come'd away." Exit Stiggins, disgusted.

The public have a right to know where they can invest money to the best advan tage, and we confidently say at the' City Kail Arcade. They do not profess to sell " under cost price," but we observe their moderate prices in every department secure this establishment a large and steady cash business. The Show Rooms, 16"G feet long, contain the greatest variety of Carpets in New Zealand. Tapestry, from 2/11 to 4/6 ; Brussels, from 5/3 ; also useful and hand some Furniture to suit all kinds of rooms and all clases of people. This department is under the superintendence of Mr.' R. Crauwell, whose long experience and ability is- a guarantee of first-class work. Country people especially should patronise Hollo way and Garlick, as they can buy from them all they require in Clothing aud Furnishing. Extensive stock of Drapery and Millinery Goods, besides Men's and Boys' Clothing. Pay a visit to the City Hall Furniture Arcade. —Hollow ay and Garlick, pro prietors.

It is always gratifying to bs able to refer to the success of any new local industry. The wants of civilized life are made up of an innumerable variety of trifles, the pro duction of any one of which is capable of affording employment to a large number of people. Looking at the immense variety of simple articles that are annually imported into Auckland, it has often been a matter of surprise that we continue to send out of the colony considerable sums of money for goods which could be easily manufactured here, and would afford remunerative employment for young and old of both sexes. Messrs Wil son & Co, of the Tikipounga Mill, Wangarei, has shewn a worthy example in this respect by the manufacture of a baking powder, which, after due trial by housewives; bakers, cooks, and other equally competent judges, has been pronounced equal to the very best imported article, and superior to much of it, which suffers deteri oration by conveyance over se ( a. We have seen numerous local testimonials to the superiority of Mr Wilson's manu facture. Mr L. Damale, the " cuisinier" of tlie Northern Club, has found the powder excellent for culinary purposes, and a goof substitute for eggs in the manufacture o pastry of every description. Mr A. Kidd, of the Provincial Hotel, recommends the powder for bread and pastry as the best he has ever used; while Mr W. H. Pierce, of the Royal Mail, after due trial also speaks highly of the powder for bread and pastry, rphe manufacture may be obtained from j^essrs L. D. Nathan and Co., who are the agents, but about the beginning of the new year Wilson &Co will have com pleted their arrangements for opening a branch manufactory in Auckland. Families, bakers, confectioners, and presiding genii of the kitchen ought to encourage local indus try and keep the money at home. The following further testimonials have been received°by Mr Wilson: from Mr Rhoderick McLeod, "Iona"; R. Prohl, "Argyle"; Henry Selfe, Newton ; W. Hamley, Wyn yard Arms. —Advt.
