A VILE STORY.
The press throughout the Dominion has recently published an interview that Mr A. H. Vile (member of the Wellington Education Board) had with an Auckland pressman- The said interview provides about the best joke we have heard for some time. It also gives Mr Vile notoriety. Perhaps that is what he was looking for. Eisten to this balderdash : “ Mr A. H. Vile, a member of the Wellington Education Board, who has just reached Auckland after a tour through the Island, a number of facts having beau given him in conversation with the well-known Maori chief, Te Heuhett Tukiuo, at Tokaauu
Heubeu is very emphatic, about the natives receiving the same rights as Europeans. We are going, he said to me, 1 to make an empathic demand in April, and if the Government does not give us what vveask, we will shoot them.’ Te Heubeu told the tale to a very receptive medium and is now laughing up his sleeve at the scoop he has brought off. All is fish that comes withiu the press association’s net—but its very vile.
