THE MIDLAND RAILWAY DIFFICULTY.

Tiie Proclamation <_ucst-io__

IMscussed

(BY TELEGRAMI. — PARLIAMENTARY ",/•) REPORTER.)

V( . y Wellington, Friday night. TnE information which I supplied to your readers with respect tothe delay in signing tho Midland railway contract, and the fact that f certain "lands had been impro perly withdrawn from tho operation of tiie .East and West Coast Rail ways Act, was confirmed in the course of a discussion which took place in the Houso this evening. The matter was raised when'in Committee on the'-Public Revenues Bill by Mr G. _\ Richardson, who said that no information had been given with re gard to tho delay in signing the Midland railway contract, " The original contract signed by the syndicate terminated on January 17th last, and so far as they knew, no new contract had been signed. He asked what contracts had been let, and tho value of them. As far asthey were aware, the contracts now being under taken were let iv England, and not by public tender. Another matter upon which information was required was, how was it that in tho " Gazette" of January 20th no less than 632,550 acres in the Provincial District of Nelson, and 145,938 acres in tho Provincial District of Westland, making a total of 778,494 acres of the loM'-lying lands of the West Coast, were exempted from the operations of tho East and West Coast Railway contract? It appeared to' him that this proclama tion approached, if it did not amount to, a breach of contract on the part of the Go vernment with the Company. By an Act Parliament had set aside a certain large area from which the Company wero to take the.land as prescribed, as an inducement for them to undertake the work. After the :passin"g of this Act it appeared that by pro clamation the Minister for Mines had picked the eyes-out of the district, and had left nothing for the Company to take up. Members would not be doing their duty if they allowed matters to pass without ob taining the fullest information. The Colonial Treasurer: If the "lion, gentleman will look over the agreement made by the syndicate, he will see that the contract was assigned to the present Com pany, and that they are working under it. Mr Richardson : The contract terminated in January last, unless the timo was ex tended by order in Council. Sir Julius Vogel explained that a new contract had been prepared and approved by the local representatives of the Midland Company, subject to the approval of i the Board at Home, and no reply had yet been received; .It might bo necessary to havo further legislation to deal with this mat ;er. The Government did not consider it expe dient to lay before the House the contract, which had not yet been accepted. Mr Richardson :• No explanation has yet been given with regard to tho Government withdrawing a large area of land, and how that affects the colony. Mr Seddon thought the explanation would be found in the 3rd section- of the amended Act of last session. It had been decided to givo the Government power to reserve all lands which were likely to be necessary for mining purposes. Alter being a party to assist the mining industry and members" of the West Coast to get this concession, the member for Mataura found fault with the Government for doing that which they were expressly authorised'then to do. The land withdrawn from: sale in Westland was the gullies adjacent to the gold workings. Mr Richardson : All the alluvial lands.

Mr Seddon: They are ttot alluvial lands, and. my.hon. friend knows little about it. The Midland Company are able to. take care of themselves, and if the Minister for Mines had not taken care of the goldfields, he would not have been fit to occupy his posi tion. • ■■ «• -

Mr Rolleston complained that three-quar ters 5 of a million of land ostensibly sot aside for the fulfillment of this , contract had been reserved by the Government. Last session he had raised the question of auriferous land. The same difficulties would arise if the Company were to be allowed"to select lands under this contract free from any restrictions, but he was now unprepared to break faith with the con tractors. He understood from, the news papers, and-the statement was ap parently made by authority, that. the proclamation withdrawing the lands had been revoked. The Colonial Treasurer had referred to the necessity for further legislation. Was it intended to keep the Canterbury members chained to' his chariot wheels through the agency of this Midland Railway? He (Mr Rolleston) warned the Canterbury members howthey acted with respect to this contract.. 'Mr Pyke said it had been stated in black and "white, on the authority of a Minister, ; that a proclamation revoking the lands reserved had been signed by the Governor on March 11th- last, but the 'revocation had by the . mis take of some clerk not, been gazetted. It seemed to him that the Governor hadbeen induced.to sign a revocation of lands reserved on March. 11th, and that this had been carefully pigeon-holed ever since. Of:the land reserved, one was a strip, of four miles in width, and an other seven miles in width. That meant positively that every bic of level land in Nelson and Westland had been abso lutely taken away: from the.^operations of the' contractors.-'- The' Treasurer had stated that he could not divulge to the House the present > position of the matter. Did he-- mean-" to -eja-y •. that therO .. 'were things that must be concealed from this House ? He could not understand how members ' could have the slightest con fidence in the gentleman sitting on *Ti .asury Benches when they were informed that Ministers dared not divulge to this House circumstances in connection with this rail way .(The. Premier : .Oh, oh). Did'"the Premier think ' that his senile laugh" would satisfy members, of this House? (Laughter.1) It would not satisfy members or the country why the proclama ■tion cancelling the reservation had not yet been gazetted. c t '•-■''• Sir Robert Stout : It is here in the Gazette, Noy 34 (June 2nd).; .; ; . _ I'QJ ." Mr Pyke :* And what is the date of the proclamation and the Governor's signature ? ■Mr Stout: .-March_lth. (Laughter). Mr Pyke: .Then why ha_it beertconcealed all this time? The conduct of the Government m this matter is unworthy of gentlemen professing ..to be. the.-Government of the colony.! The position is this : If it had not been detected and-discovered that this ex traordinary .reservation ■■ had, ..been, made, .that withdrawal proclamation* would 'have never seen the light of day. It had been "forced and dragged from the Government. .Sir., Robt. Stout said that the eloquent and very able speech just made showed,- if true, that -the -Government ought never -to allow, railways to.be constructed by private companies, and when the Otagb Central Railway came to be i discussed ,:ini the:. House;: he should read from that'speech Ho prove that the work should not be undertaken. (Laughter.) It was ~a.',, most -eloquent speech«against „ the construction of railways by land grants. What was the meaning of "this eloquence and talk of breach of faith ? The member for Geraldine was speaking through the newspapers, and Hansard to. tho electors of Canterbury^ The ..proclamation which had excited such dire anger was signed by the Governor oh the 11th of March,bub'through some mistake in'the office it was';, not thought it required to be gazetted. When it,was pointed out'that it'buglit'-to' be gaz.ttedythatr*was»don9/--Th9se interested

in the contract did not know of the exist ence of the proclamation till six weeks or two months after it had been rescinded Major Atkinson : Why was it issued ? Sir R, Stout: The first proclamation was issued on the suggestion of the Chief Sur veyor at Westland, reserving these different pieces of land for mining purposes. Looking at the contract n.ow in existence—not the contract that was sanc tioned by Parliament under 'which the contractors are working — the Govern ment had no. authority to take the lands reserved under the lirst proclamation. They did not deny thoir right to reserve lands that might be required lor mining pur poses, and no doubt that right would be judiciously applied by any Ministry.. It was unfair that this Chamber should bo turned into an arena for electioneering purposes. Mr Pyke said he must protest most strongly against tho breach of faith on the part of the Government. If he had been subjected to the same treatment with re gard to Otago Central Railway as the Mid land Railway Company had been, Ministers would have heard from him very quickly.

Sir George Grey remarked that as far as he understood tbe matter, a proclamation was issued withdrawing large tracts of land from the Company, which they had a right to consider themselves entitled to, and the fact of their boing so withdrawn was kept Joack from them for a long period of time. ' This appeared to him to be a gross breach of faith, calculated to alarm the Mid land Company, andmust shako confidence in the colony. How was it that such valuable information had boen withheld till the pro clamation was now obliged to be revoked so that no injury should be perpetrated '! Mr Richardson felt that revoking tho original proclamation had saved tho colony from a whirlpool of arbitration, involving probably, loss to the colony of half-a-million of money. Mr Ormond said this was a colonial matter, and tho Houso had a right to bo in formed as to whether tho Government had guaranteed the present contractors. : The Premier replied that tiie credit of the colony hud neither boen pledged nor injured in any way. Mr Rolleston, replying to some remarks by Mr O'Callaghan, said that the member for Lincoln would have enough to do to explain to his constituents his support of a Government who were acting so as to bring the credit of the colony into disgrace over this contract.

In reply to Mr Wakefield the Premier ex plained that the position was that the syn dicate in Ghristchurch had sold the original contract to the London syndicate, who were now solely responsible for the work being carried on. The Government had no re sponsibility whatever. Mr Wakefield said that was a very satis factory position. Mr Fergus thought it clear that the Government had not exceeded their power, and that therefore no injury could result. This being so, it would be as well to let the matter drop. Sir Julius Vogel said the now contract explained to the Company fully the reser vation iof land proposed. by the Govern ment.

Mr Richardson said the discussion had been useful inasmuch as by tho admissions of Ministers and by their silence the House learned that the Government were not re sponsible for the works in hand; that some provisional agreement existed virtually ex tending the original contract pending tlio signing of the new contract; that tho "Gazette " notice withdrawing 778,000 acres on the West Coast was cancelled in yes terday's "Gazette;" and that until the new contract was signed the Company could select any land, auriferous or not, except ing only abandoned and actual gold work ings at the date of the passing of tho East and West Coast Railways Act oi" 1883. The Minister of Works then read a depart mental statement showing the exact posi tion of tho Midland Railway question at tho present time, and the discussion dropped.
