THE HOME COMING.
FOE SIR JOSEPH WARD, BART. I (By Telegraph.—SlwcinJ Correspondent.) Christchurch, July 10. Tho "Press," commenting upon a to« port concerning tho arrangements beiug made to touder a welcome to Sir Joseph Ward, cays: "It appears that some' Liberals' in Wellington are labouring industriously to arrange a welcome to tho member for Awarua. Wo trust that they will givo their friend a hearty greeting, aud make him fool as glad to be back as they are now sorry that they drove him from his post as leader. They owe him some amends, and nobody will complain even if their repeutnnco leads tliem to rather amusingly extravagant lengths. Wo notice, however, that it is hoped that Ilia Mayor will preside ever a meeting at tho Town Hall. Mr. Luke is a very good-, natured man, but ho is unlikely to shrink from pointing out to tho "Liberals' that it is not tho part of the Mayor to commit tho city to sympathy with what is mcreljr a piece of political tactics. Our 'Liberal' I'riends nvo quite entitled, to lesort to any kind of political stage-management t(iat their unhappy casu requires, but they must really do without tho Mayor of tho city that showed its opinion ot "Liberalism' by refusing to give it even ono of the five scats in its gift "
