    LOCAL & GENERAL. I The Hon. Mr Larnach, at the inaugural dinner on the occasion of commencing the harbour works at Wesfcport, said that from the earliest discovery of gold in Australia he had taken an interest in it, being in Melbourne at its discovery in 1851, and having worked at it there for four months. As a bank manager, also, for 24 years he had been brought into contact with the mining industry, and had gained practical knowledge. Gold had driven these Colonies 50 years ahead of what they would otherwise be, and brought a large body of enterprising, daring, and honest men to the Colony. He referred to the Ministeral measures to encourage mining. Among them was the East and West Coast railway, which would run through mineral and metal country. The opening of the Westport Harbour would bring such a population to this district as could not now be pictured. There was also silver in this district, and the great work to be undertaken by the Government would open up all these industries. He complimented Mr O'Conor for his exertions respecting the Westport Harbour Bill. They had to thank Jhim for it. The harbour scheme was tbe greatest work the Colony ever did, but the coal harbours would have to be fortified, The matter of defences must be taken in hand sooner or later. He did not think the position of Minister of Mines really required an expert, but a man of common sense, and one not afraid of work and determined to inquire into details. His present visit was for that purpose. (Otago Witness, 07 February 1885) Otago Witness · Papers Past · National Library of New Zealand · text read
