Mi- Moss Defends Ills Amendment,

Mr Moss was asked at the last moment to withdraw his amendment, but declined, considering that after so long a debate it would be childish to do so. lie also held that it was desirable to record, til the first opportunity, a protest against proposals that would remit taxation on properly, while putting upon loans the cost of perish able and ordinary works that ought to como out of revenue, thereby throwing on tho mass of the people a burden which they ought not to havo to bear.

IMPROVEMENT OF DUNEDIN HARBOUR.

by TELKiir.Ai"""—own ooi:iti:.«roxm.N'T.)

Di'nkoin", this day. Ml" Bail, tho llaibour Board Engineer, in a recent address said*—"l have been

familiar for a gool number of year.? with tho statements of harbour improvements of tho lower harbour anil bar. I mado it my special business tomako asoarcking inquiry into Uto accuracy of those statements. I iiiade a i.'ory completo comparison of tho earliest aursreys with those more recent, and oould not lind there was the slightest -ground for asserting that tho capacity of any part of the harbour has been reduced by <he reclamation in Dunedin, Comparing tho bar now with its condition .is shown by Captain Stokes in a survey executed jn 184-, I found tho series of soundings agreed very closely. Further, I found that part of the shoal just below Maori Kail" jetty, long known to navigators as tho inner bar, i'rom the fact of there being only 15 feet of eater on it at low tide, lias been scoured down to 27.? feet with the aid of dredging. As regards tho progress with Vjc ttoria Channel, it may be said_ th&t 4he improvements in the depths effected by walling and dredging aro of a very substantial character. Our difficulties in it at the present moment are not great, and aro confined to about 'two places, the .ono being'" where sandbanks *t fine timo rising abovo low water have been c_t dflwn 15 or J Oft., and the sand has not sufficiently jHatton&'l out to ba stablo, and tho other is where the palling has not yet biMii com pleted. Notwithstanding these, the .channel is now capable of the passage to Dunedin ot vessels'drawing 17ft. to ISft., and the importance of this gain may bo /caused by the fact that Jhe tonnage of vessels ontering Otago Harbour in ISB3 ,_ndef a draught of ISft. was about Jhree sfourtis of the whole. By the now channel, .about th__-fourths of tho whole import 'could be brought direct up to Dunedin "vitliout transhipment."
