Te Kopara 72

Te Kopara 72


[3] Te Kopara, Number 71, Gisborne, 31 January, 1920.

‘Iti te Kopara, kai takirikiri ana i runga i te Kahikatea.’
Although the Bellbird is small, he plucks at the Kahikatea. [cf Nga Pepeha 908]

THE ELECTION.

None of the standing Maori members was defeated in the recent election.

Tau Henare (Government) Northern Maori
A T Ngata (Opposition) Eastern Maori
Mauri Pomare (Government) Western Maori
W H Uru (Opposition) Southern Maori

It is a matter of sadness and regret that Timi and his friend, Mr Ward, were defeated in this election.
