HIGH COMMISSIONERSHIP.
THE PREMIER INTERVIEWED. [Br TELSGBAPH — PBESS ASSOCIATION.] TIMARU, This Day. In the course of an interview here yesterday, the Premier, asked if he proposed accepting the High Commissionership, replied : — "Time will tell. I am still hopeful that I shall improve, and there is a great deal to be done here yet. Whoever takes the position and would do full justice to the colony, will need to be strong and robust, and my condition is that I can do more good for New Zealand within the colony than I could do if I were in the United Kingdom. If my health does not improve I suppose the proper thing for me to do, in the interests of my family, would be to take a complete rest."
