SIR JOSEPH WARD'S PLANS
OFFERS IN HOME POLITICS. "BUT SO PAR REFUSED." By Telegraph.—Press Association. Christehurch, Last Night. To-iiight Sir Joseph Ward was entertained at dinner by a number of friends on the eve of his departure for England. Dr. Thacker, M.P., presided, and several Liberal M.P.'s were among tho.se present. The gathering partook largely of a social character. Responding to the toast of his health, Sir .Joseph Ward said he believed the Liberal Party in New Zealand would again be returned to power with a genuine majority of the pepolc behind them. In the past he had had, and still had, in his possession offers from leading public men at Home (not the present Imperial Government), to take part in imperial polities, but so far he had refused all these offers. What the future held no one could say. Really all lie could say VM that his present intention, after having a good rest, was to come back to New Zealand.
