THE ENDOWMENT BILL. ANOTHER GOVERNMENT AMENDMENT FORESHADOWED (Special to Times.) WELLINGTON, Oct. 29. Tlio House resumed consideration of the National Endowment Hill last evening. Sir Joseph Ward, who has charge of the Bill, asked the Honso to put through the amended schedule, in which event ho would move an amendment to moot- tho objection of the Opposition who saw danger (under tho last proposals) of the endowments eventually reaching fifteen million acres. This new amendment would provide that when the area of endowments reached nine millions no.other land should become endowment laud. Mr. Massey said ho hoped tho North Island mombors would study what that meant. Mr. Lang said that the South Island members having been able to force a reduction, they should now assist tho North Island members also to obtain a reduction. Mr. Laurenson warned the Premier that by trying to meet his political foes as he was now doing, ho ran tho ris'k of severing himself from his political friends. An lion, member: He lias already given away too much to his political friends. Mr. Laurenson went on to accuso the Opposition of talking twaddle. They were, he said, the representatives of a class-who wanted to buy tlio national estate. Mr Baume said he would not emulate the last speaker by declaring as twaddle the arguments ot members who happened to hold different views to those lie might hold. He thought it quite reasonable that a further reduction should be made in the North. The question of Native lands having cropped up, tlio Premier and the Minister for Lands stated that these lands when purchased by the Oioun would be opened under tho optional S ' V Jlr, Jennings took occasion to differ from this statement, and ho said that from what he could learn lio was pretty certain that- not a single acre of native land in the king coinitiy was likely to be opened undci tho optional systein. , , -was Mr. McNab’s retort to tins was hat lie was not going to bo bounced 11 to an explanation of the Govern iipnt/e Native land policy. The discussion ran on without any n*oat displav of interest. A [umber of members did not find tho nbiect attractive enough- neep liern in tlieir seats and they betook on selves to the lobby, from whence hev dutifully returned at the call ,f the division bell. Massey Amendments moved by Mr. Massey ,„d Mr. Allen respectively, to stnko ra t the renewable lease to the smal vrazing runs, were lost. = The leasehold advocacy of tlio lato lion V Rollest-on s having been noted by Mr. Ell, Mr. Malcolm remarked that it was now rather lato in the dav for members on tlie other %&&&?&?$%% on the opposite side of the House.
