To the Elector.- of the Province of Auckland. f' EXTLEMKN, —In pursuance of the announceOf Bient ma le by rne when consenting to become a Candidate for the office of Superintendent of ! the Province of Auckland that 1 would take an early opportunity of laying my views before you. I hare now the honour to state that for some years past 1 hare looked upon the Provincial Government as costing more money than it was wortn f and tins view I have repeatedly expressed to some members of the Provincial Council, without being shown by any of them any reason to cause me to alter or even modify mv belief. Afy opinions as to the desirability of getting rid ox the Provincial Government of Auckland have lately been strengthened, as I feel perfect!v satisfied that tbs good derived from its operations are not at all commensurate with its costs, and as I am quite convinced that nearly ail the work done by the Provincial Governments could be done better, more economically, and with greater satisfaction to the ratepayers through the instrumentality of local Boards and local ’’institutions than by a Superintendent resident in Auckland. la addition to the expense that would in mv opinion be saved to the country by the work of the Provincial Council being done’ by local road and other boards, 1 believe that these boards would work more harmoniously with the General Government than th® Provincial Government has nicaerto done ; and as the opening up of the country is the undertaking of greatest importance to the colony, the best method of getting the work done should most certainly in my opinion be adopted without loss of time. And as regards the goldfields, I entertain no doubt the people on these fields could manage their affairs without the intervention of a Superintendent not resident in their neighbourhood, and that their local representatives could deal better with the Supreme Government of the colony than a Provincial Government. Ti lth reference to the desirability of having the railways pushed on quickly, of course I entirely concur, and with regard to fostering the establishment of native industries I presume I need only x-efer you to my actions during the last few years.. With regard to the present Government, I believe it to be the most able Government that ISTew Zealand ever had, and I fully expect that if the Government receives from the forthcoming General Assembly that support to which I consider them entitled, the native difficulty and all other obstacles to the Government of the colony will disappear. I am, gentlemen, Xour most obedient seavanfc, J. S. MACPABLAxSTE. Auckland, June 5, 1873.
