Our facilities for delivery are the

Sir John Thurstou,s Visit.

SYDNEY, Dec. 16.-Sir John B.
Thurston recently visited the Solo
mon Islands. The High h-Commissioner
made tour Of the eastern or British
portion Of the group-the other por-
ton belongs 70 the Germsns-and in
the course of his visit Sir John assem-.
bled the principal chiefs IS well as
the traders, and addressed them as to
what would be expected OF them IN
der the coming change of Govern
ment- Il is intended 10 send 3 Resi-
dent Commissioner TO the Solomons
IN the same way IS has been done ST
The Gilbert Islands. Head-huntinc
and cannibalism were specially sim
sled out Is practices which the British
Government would not tolerate. The
labor trade is dying out. There is no
need for further legislation. for the
f2ct seems 10 be that the natives will
not recuit for Queensland or auy
other place. The kurrara met with
the Queensland labor vessel L.OchieI
on the 4th inst She had then been
out three months, and had only re-
clited some fifteen boys. Sir John
Ihursron has promised that, under
the British Residents supervision. the
traders who employ native labor on
their vessels for boat work will have
licenses issued 70 them by the Resi-.
dent Under existing regulations

adoption Of such forms OF common
