CONGRATULATING THE COLONIAL TREASURER. Invercargill, May 6.
A large number of persons assembled at the railway station this afternoon to congratulate the Hon. J. G. Ward on his accession to the Colonial Treasurership. The mayor (Mr M'Farlane) was spokesman, and after reference to the death of Mr Ballance expressed a hope that Mr Ward would long continue to guide the finances of the colony. In reply Mr Ward eulogised the late Premier, and, while thanking the citizens for their congratulations, expressed regret that he (Mr Ward) had been called on to take the Treasurership through the death of his chief.
