Election Notices. TO THE CITIZENS OP DUNEDIN. GENTLEMEN— I solicit your rotes to elect me to the highly honorable position of Mayor, and I base my claims to your favor upon the following consider** tioua ; I have served you as a Municipal Councillor without intermission for eight years—first in the old Town Board, when it began the formation of our streets and pavements; and next in the Corporation, wnere I still continue to assist in promoting your health 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. So far therefore, as your choice of aMayor depends upon his experience in Municipal duties, I feel that I have stronger claims than any other candidate who can come before you. No other member of the present Corporation has served you beyond four years, and I think it not unfair to point out that the periods of service of all other candidates, yet known to mo, would not, if pat together, equal my eight years. In point of mercantile standing and credit in this city, I also claim to be entitled to seek the honour I look forward to. As to the candidature of Mr Reynolds, I will make but one remark—it is this—lf the citizens elect him, passing over the claiths bf those who have hitherto gratuitously worked hard to make this town the best payed, lighted, and drained in New Zealand, and the most worthy of being Called a city —if they reject onr claims, and 1 confer the place of honour of onr Corporation upon a gentleman who drops down from another sphere to take what our exertions have made au honourable and desirable 'office, then the citizens will not only have put a very great slight upon the whole body Of* the present Corporation, but they will have sorely discouraged all other respectable persons from henceforth devoting their time as. .Councilors to • the service of Dunedin.' EveryCouncillor is, in my opinion, fairly entitled to the honor and dignity of the Mayoralty, when, by long semce and satisfactory representation of his constituents, he has. eattied the position. Your election of ! Mi* Reynolds would prove that the citizens are unmindful,of such just claims, I shall have the honour to address'my fellow citizens at several places and on severaT occasions, between this date Unct- the day of election. , I am, Gcntleinaa, ; r,: Your obedient Servant, JOHN GRIFFEN.
