TO THE ELECTORS OP THE AKAROA DISTRICT. ENTL-MEN,—I have tlio liosior vJ to state t iat I shall be aCA NDI DATE for your suffrages at the ELhCTION shortly to be liel.l for the return of a Member to the House of Representatives. Having been honored with your confidence for upwards of seven years, during the whole of whiVh time 1 can truly say that I•• endeavored to do my duty as your Representative, and having publicly received repeated expressions of your approval of my conduct, I shall again hopefully appeal for the continuance of your confidence. I intend to ask you, gentlemen, to meet me in various parts of the district b?fore the day of election, at which places I shall have the honor to address you on questions of public interest. I have the honor to remain, Gentlemen, Yours faithfully, W. MONTGOMERY. TO THE RATEPAYERS OF THE BERARD RIDING, IN THE COUNTY OP AKAROA. I BEG most respectfully to say that I shall offer my services as a Can didate for the Berard Riding, in the County of Akaroa, at the forthcoming Election. In doing so I cannot say that I am in favor of the County Council in preference to the Road Board. I am at present a member of the Road Board, and have been one of that body since its infancy. Under the circumstances I beg to say that I cannot conceive how any other body can fill the place of the Road Board, as the gentlemen I have been connected witli on that body for a number of years have always been found to be most straightforward and honest in all their transactions, and in disposing of the public moneys placed under thei' trust. '■■ I beg most respectfully to say that if returned I shall always endeavor to, do my duty in a trustworthy manner, as I have hitherto done, and I consider it is quite time the Ratepayers had a meeting, at which all Ratepayers should att.nd, to decide whether they will give up the County Council or the Road Board, for it is impossible to keep up two rating , bodies. Yours respectfully, BENJAMIN SHADBOLT, Head of the-Bey. FARMERS' CO-OPERATION. MR WILLIAM BATE MAN will visit the Peninsula and : explain the objects of the N. Z.
