A CHALLENGE ACCEPTED.
Mlt. MASSEY AND THE PREMIER. By Telegraph.-—Press Association. Auckland, Last Night. Mr. Massey intimated to a Herald reporter to-day that he would accept Sir Joseph Ward's challenge to prove his (Mr. Massey's) recent charges against the Government methods. The charges principally referred to are (1,1 that suggestions had been made at elections to the effect that certain districts would be more likely to be benefited by Government expenditure if those districts were represented by Government supporters rather than Oppositionists; (2) that systematic attempts were made at elections by members of the party of which Sir Joseph Ward is leader to libel and misrepresent Opposition candidates and Opposition members of the last and preceding Parliaments.
