  • Developing a Balanced View of Blackball '08 from a Wider Range Of
    ‘The View from Over the Hill’: Developing a Balanced View of Blackball ’08 from a Wider Range of Perspectives1 MELANIE NoLAN On 26 February 1908 Walter Leitch, the mine manager of a small private West Coast mine employing about 160 workers, dismissed seven miners, all members of the recently formed Blackball branch of the Socialist Party. The miners had been agitating for some time for an eight hour ‘bank to bank’ day, that is for overtime to be paid if a miner worked longer than eight hours from the time he entered a mine to the time he left the mine.2 Tensions had been inflamed by a second local union demand for half an hour rather than fifteen minutes for lunch or crib. The Blackball Miners’ Industrial Union of Workers struck the next day when management refused to reinstate and compensate the sacked workers. The Blackball strike, famously known as the ‘crib’ or ‘tucker time’ strike, lasted 11 weeks, ending on 13 May 1908 when the Blackball Coal Mining Company (Limited) reinstated the men and the mealtime was increased to thirty minutes.3 The Blackball strike in 1908 focused national attention on the arbitration system. Conservatives were enraged by the apparent victory of the miners in the ‘Blackball affair’.4 The Arbitration Court of New Zealand fined the miners’ union £75 for striking in defiance of the Arbitration Act. The union had no assets and so each miner was liable to a fine up to £10. The miners refused to pay any such fines, and an auction of confiscated miners’ goods was an embarrassing failure.

  • Greetings from Waimumu, the Fellowship of Christian Farmers
    Greetings from Waimumu, The Fellowship of Christian Farmers, International NZ will have a stand at the Southern Field Days, February 12-14th, at the Waimumu Exhibit Field near Gore. This will be the first FCFI stand at the Southland event. Our marquee will be on lot 511 near the Gate 4 Entrance. Hopefully we will get to see some of you who live on the South Island. Others we may meet at National Fieldays in June. We need to ask you to pray for the organization of Fellowship of Christian Farmers, Int. NZ. Pray for the Lord’s wisdom as we move forward with organizational plans. The need to grow spiritually in Christ and to use our hands to grow food, fix machines and assist missionaries around the world is greater than ever. New Zealand farmers can travel anywhere in the world to serve the Lord with their passport. Recently in Central, Illinois on November 17th, an EF-4 tornado destroyed 1080 homes in Washington, IL and 20 farm yards. Farmers in FCFI have been busy helping families clean up the damage in the middle of winter. This is similar to NZ farmers organizing the “Farmy Army” in Christchurch to clean up liquifaction in the streets following earthquakes. Your feedback is important to us to know how the Lord is leading you to be part of this ministry. Special Meeting Invitation - You are invited to attend a special meeting of the Fellowship of Christian Farmers, Int. at the Mataura Christian Church, Mataura, February 16th at 7:00 pm. We will have a presentation explaining the recent projects of FCFI and a time to sing, read scripture and pray for the needs of the community.

  • Differential Uplift of Middle and Late Quaternary Shorelines, Northwest South Island, New Zealand Introduction
    Quaternary International, Vol. 15/16, pp. 47-59, 1992. 1040-618~92 $15.(~) Printed in Great Britain. All rights reserved. © 19'42 INQUA/Pergamon Prcss Ltd DIFFERENTIAL UPLIFT OF MIDDLE AND LATE QUATERNARY SHORELINES, NORTHWEST SOUTH ISLAND, NEW ZEALAND R.P. Suggate DSIR Geology and Geophysics, P. O. Box 30368, Lower Hutt, New Zealand Discontinuous Plcistoccnc cliff-backed shorelines up to 220 m in altitude, and Holocene shorelines up to 12 m, border much of 125 km of coast from Westport to Hokitika in northwest South Island, New Zealand. The coastal terraces arc up to 10 km wide where cut on soft Tertiary sediments but are narrow or absent on gneiss. By analogy with post-glacial shoreline development, Pleistocene shorelines are accepted as having been formed at the times of attainment of high interglacial sea levels. Past intra- regional correlations assumed minimal differential uplift, but, as with glacial outwash surfaces inland, the raised shorelines are deformed by folding. Correlations are helped by the relations of shoreline deposits to glacial outwash gravels in the south, and by a few radiometric, mainly radiocarbon, dates. Correlations with high sea levels of deep-sea Oxygen Isotope Stages are made using the best fits of the altitudes of local sequences of shorelines to the altitudes expected assuming constant rates of uplift for each sequence. Uplift rates are between 0.5 and 0.2 m/kyr, and the uplift pattern substantially matches that of uplift of Miocene to lower Quaternary sediments. The shorelines correspond to high sea levels within Oxygen Isotope Stages 15, 13, 11,9 (two), 7 (two), 5 (two) and 1.
