TO THE ELECTORS OF CLYDE ALEXANDRA, AND CROMWELL.

pESTLHMEN,-I have Icon requested " to come forward and offer myaeP again as a candidate, to represent the Dunstan in the new Provincial Council. Jt is with difrid'iice T do bo, for T fully ex. pected you would have heen able to select a good representative ia the district, hut seeing no other <'tmdidato than Mr Frazer, and firmly believing that his views cannot coincide with those of a mining community, I am compelled to resort to the measures, I am now doing. There are questions, that may and will he discussed in the new Provincial Council ] when Mr Frazer must either vote against his own interest, or those, of his eonstitu- | ruts, for the question, of the reduction of ! ••lie duty 01 (.'old, and placing instead a duty on Wool, will bo decided this session. I The issui g of fresh Leases of the various runs in the Province, will he another very important question brought before the ! house. The present overbearing influence possessed by the squatters should be done away with, and the miners of this country gflfc a fair share of the representation ; this cannot be done, if you select a Gentleman to represent you, whose views must be antagonistic to the majority of the miners and residents in the mining districts. 1 therefore p'ace myself in your hands, if you think I deserve the preference, let your votes show it on the day of the Poll. I remain Your obedient Servant, ?. ISAACS. Duncdin, 9th March, 18G7.
