GENTLEMEN— I solicit yonr votes to elect me to the highly honorable position of Mayor, and 1 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 I still continue, to assist in promoting your health and convenience. During these eight years, I hare 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 a Mayer depends upon his experience in Municipal duties, I feel that I have stronger claims than any other candidate who can conic before you. No other member of the present Corporation has served you beyond four years, and I think it not unfair to point oat that the periods of service of all other candidates, yet known to me, would not, if put together, equal nfreight 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-If th« citizens elect him, passing over the claims «£ those who have hitherto gratuitously worked hard to make this town the beat paved, lighted, and drained in New Zealand, and the most worthy of being called a city —if they reject our claims, and confer the place of honour of our Corporation upon a gentleman who drops down from another sphere to take what our exertions have mads an honourable and desirable office, then the citizens will not only have put a very groat alight upon the whole body of the present Corporation, but they will have sorely discouraged all other respectable persons fro* henceforth devoting their time as Councillors to the service of Dunedin. Every Councillor is, in my opinion, fairly entitled to the honor and dignity of the Mayoralty, when, by long service and satisfactory representation of his constituents, ho has earned the position. Your election of Mr Reynolds would prove that the citizens are unmindful of suen just claims. I shall have' tho honour to address my fellow citizens at several places and on several occasions, between this date and th® day of election. I am, Gentleman, Your obedient Servant, JOHN GRIFFEN. Manor Place, 13th June, 1870, TO THE CITIZENS OF DUNEDIN. GENTLEMEN, —I beg to intimate that I am a Candidate for the position af Mayor of the City at the forthcoming Election. I have simply to say that during tho time I have had the honor to serve you os a Councillor, I have used my best exertions in your interest. Tne large amount of support accorded me at the last Election justifies me, 1 think, in seeking your suffrages’ on tho present occasion. If you honor me by electing me Mayor for the ensuing twelve mouths, it will be my anxious endeavor to discharge the important duties of the office in such a manner as will reflect no discredit on you. I shall take an early opportunity of addressing you in all parts of the City, in order to give you my view on municipal politics generally. I am, Gentlemen, Your obedient Servant, H. S. FISH, Jukk. TO THE CITIZENS OF DUNEDIN. G< EKTLBMEN—In accordance with my promise, when I bad the honor of ad* dressing you at the Princess Theatre, I aOW place my services at your disposal. If elected, my aim will be to fulfil the duties of the office with a view to the advancement of every city interest. W. H. REYNOLDS.
