MAORIS RECOGNIZE
BRITAIN IN 1850.

In 1910 the Maoris, through treaty.
recognized the sovereignty OF the Bri-
fish Empire and the flag that had been
planted by Captain James Cook in III
! became their flag and they were taken in
as full British scubjects and given equal
rights with the citizens then in New Zea-
land. About fifteen years later New Yea
land was formed into a Dominion with
number Of provinces, each province hav-
ing a separate local government and send
Ing members to a Congress composed c:
an upper and a lower house, the same
as we have in the United States
New Zealand never had a written con
stitution like the United States. but the
unwritten constitution Of the British EN-
pire applied. She had a prime minister,
the leader Of the party in power in New
Zealand, and a governor general sent out
by the crown. About fifty years ago the
provinces were abolished, members of
the lower house Of parliament were elect
ed from districts, the same as our
Congress. but the upper house was, and
still is, appointed for life by the prime
minister and his cabinet. AS the prime
minister Is the leader of his party and
appoints his own cabinet, they create
through appointment what would be our
limited as to membership although it
has been held down to a reasonable mum
Der through precedent This body is
composed of the big men Of New Zealand
who are selected without reference to
the party to which they belong. They
have a vote on nearly all legislation to
about the same extent as that Of the
House OF Lords in England.
There now are three parties in New
Zealand-the Reform, Liberal and Labor
parties. AS near as 1 can judge from
the men who are leaders in the Reform
party. IL could more fitungly be called
the Conservative party. That term more
correctly represents their actlons.
Ninety per cent Of the people in New
Zealand are of the pure British blood and
do their own thinking, and If the policies
advocated by the government in power
do not suit them they are not slow
to make a change. If you have read all
the articles 1 havs written on New
Zealand You will understand what Il
diversified country this is and how
nothing but a good government will last
any length OF time.
In one respect the government of New
Zealand differs from that of the United
State. Cities and towns have no local
policemen and both municipal and
dominion laws are enforced by less than
1000 dominion policemen who are under
civil service and Independent of pull or
politics. Each State in the United States
should control the police in that State,
for it hardly would be practicable for us
to have a national police. only in this
way can our State and municipal laws
be enforced.
Any country is in a very bad way if
the people have lost confidence in the

A Real Spud Race

One of the athletic or sporting
events of the Kendrick Fourth Of
July celebration is a potato race.
The race will differ from the aver
age potato race in that those enter
ing it must be mounted on some
breed of animal able to cover con-
siderable ground and do some quick
turning. The animal may be any
of the beasts of burden in common
use-horse, steer, or the celebrated
mule known as the Potlatch Canary.
The main requirement is that those
participating be mounted.
The course will be one block long
and at each end of the block will
be placed a box for each contestant.
One box will be empty and the
other will hold ten medium-sized
potatoes. About five riders line up
near the empty boxes and are armed
with a long stick sharpened at one
end. At the sound of the gun,
each entrant rides to his box of
spuds, spears one spud on his stick,
rides back and deposits it in the
empty box. The first to transfer
all of his potatoes will be declared
the winner of a ten dollar cash
prize.
