SIR JOSEPH WARD.
« —, ~ Sir Joseph Ward is evidently being informed of the lines of criticism pursued by the Opposition press ::i New Zealand. Ho seized the opportunity, when proposing the toast of the "Imperial Forces" at a dinner in London, to state thut while he believed :n the compulsory system of military training, he did not think they had a right to expect that Xew Zeaiandors 'would ho sent outside for service, excepting as Volunteers. Jt is clear that Sir Joseph has taken advantage of Mr Allen's statement, whatever ii. might ho, to endeavour to score a point against the Government. ]> is singularly unfortunate for the o\Premier, however, that he should he repeating almost the very words used by Mr Massoy a few days previously. His <!orresporidents .should keep him bettor posted in these matters.
