Election Notices. TO THE (ITI/KXS OF DUNEDIN. GENTLEMEN— I solicit your votes to elect me to the highly honorable position of Mayor, and I base my claims to your favor upon the following considerations :• — I have served you as a Municipal Councillor without intermission for eight years—lirst in the old. Town Board, when it began ' the formation of our streets and pavements; and next in the Corporation, where 1 still continue to assist in promoting your health j and convenience. : During these eight years, I have voted and spoken upon every important question, and. if I may judge from my having been always re-elected by the same constituency, I have so voted and spoken to the satisfaction of my fellow-citizens. Ho far thejrabre, oMyoHr choice of a Mayor depends upon in Municipal duties, I .ffeeD’tj stronger claims than who can come before yon. NOUier mmmberjjf the present beyond four ; years, audfl to point out ! that the periods of service of all other caui didates, yet known to me, would not, if put j together, equal my eight years, i Ju point ofSncrcahtile standing and credit : in this city, I. also claim to bo entitled to j seek the honour 1 look forward to.

I As to tli o candidature of. Mr Reynolds, I ! will make but one remark—it is this--If the I citizens elect him, passing over the claims of ; those who have hitherto gratuitously < worked hard to make this town the best ; paved. lighted, and drained in New Zealand, '■ and flic most worthy of being called a city if they reject our claims, ami confer the | place of honour of our Oorporation upon a j "■cutlcman who drops down from anotaer i sphere to take what unr eNcrtious have made ■ an honourable and desirable olbce, then the 1 citizens rvill not only liavc put a very great sbAit upon the whole body of the present ‘ t'orporation, but they will have sorely dis- ' couraued ail other respectable pci sous from : henceforth devoting their time as Couuefl- | lors to the service of Dunedin, Every j Councillor is, in my opinion, fairly entitled j to the honor and dignity of the Mayoralty, ! 'when, .1 >v long service and satisfactory ic- ■ presentation of his constituents, he has i maimed the position. Your election of Mr I Reynolds would prove that the citizens are j unmindful of such just claims, | 1 shall have the honour to address my fellow citizens at several places and,on several occasions, between this date and the j day of election. 1 am, Ccutlcman, Your obedient Servant, JOHN OHIFEEN.
