POLITICAL ADDRESS BY THE NATIVE MINISTER.

(by telegraph—press association. )

Wanoanui, this day. Hon. J. Ballance, Alinister of Native Affairs, was banquetted here last night, there being a large attendance. In res ponding to the toast of his health, Mr Bal lance made a lengthy speech, in the course of which ho touched on various political topics. He advocated giving a vote to every woman, and also alluded to the making of tho trunk railway, and its bear ing on the prosperity of tho colony. He next referred to tho " unomployed" diffi culty, the importance of dealing with which the Government fully recognised. It had been asserted that tho unomployed diffi culty was principally duo and could be traced to persons of the working classes who indulged too freely in drink, and to loafers who did not work, but on inquiry the Go vernment had found that the distress was not confined to these classes alone. Some of the better class were also suffering, and even in some casos those who wero in employ ment, Under these' circumstances the Government did not propose to continue immigration until tho surplus labour had been absorbed, and he believed that in the pettloraont of ;the land tho difficulty would be solved. Aa regarded' the purchase of native lands, it was the intention of the Government in future to acquire land, for settlement only, and upon a commercial principle, and they would not borrow money except for lands that would be made to reproduce at least 5 per cent, of the purchase cost. Con sequently the native difficulty had resolved itself into simply a question of settlement of land. It was the intention of the Go vernment to establish land associations that could take up land to the extent of 5,000 acres. The pastoral lands of the colony should not be alienated. They represented 12,000,000 aores, and tho revenue' would yearly increase. It was the intention of the Government to cut the present large runs into smaller blocks. At the same time, he recognised the fact that the run holders were a most Important part of the community, and their position was worthy of every consideration. He approved of land settlement on a purchase extending over ten years, the extent to bo 100 acres, on three conditions, namely, good land, ?ioximity to market, and low price of land, 'he particulars of the Association system would be gazetted in a few days.

An excellent breod of poultry Is said to have been obtained by a settlor in Bay of Plenty district, through crossing the weka and the common domestic fowl. Tho birds are hardy, and lay nearly tho whole year round.

There was a large attendance at tho con cert gived in St. Thomas's School-room last evening. Amongst those who took part "were Misses Tappor, Davis, Gribble, and Steele, and Messrs Henderson, Walls, Kirk, Simpson, Ward, Montague, and Rev. Mr Alloway. The majority of the accompani ments wore played by Miss Hamilton. It is hardly necessary to add that the concert was a most successful one.

The Tichbobne Claimant.—After 14 years of convict live, and the loss of about 11 Btono in weight, the Tichborne Claimant is once more free, and is once more endeavouring to assert himself. He wants all to know that ho is the " real Sir Roger." just as Eaton of the Co-operative Store, next the Criterion, Hobson stroot, wants the publio of Auckland to know that he is selling Canterbury and Local Bacon from Id to 8d per lb; Hams, ed; Potted Butter, 6d; New and Old Cheese (both Canterbury and 'Wairoa), —1 per lb—sd por lb by tho Cheese; Currants Raisins, and Sultanas, 5Jd per lb.; New Potatoes, 181b for Is.
