Election Notices. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE CITY OF DUNEDIN. GENTLEMEN— I have to-clay been presented with a requisition signed by a large number of yourselves, asking me to I offer myself as a Candidate for the representation of the City at the coming elections for the Provincial Council. Up to the time I saw the document I had not intended to ask your suffrages on the present occasion, as I felt, from past experience, that I had not sufficient time at my disposal to discharge satisfactorily the duties of the position. From the flattering nature of the requisition, however—signed as it is by parties who both agree with and differ from me in political matters —I feel that out of respect to 'those who have asked me, I have no o her course open than place my services at your disposal. In doing so, I desire to state that should your votes place me in the position of one of your representatives, I shall, as I have done in the past, use my best efforts to promote the interests of the City and of the province generally. My views are, I hope, of a liberal and progressive character, and my only object in coming forward is to do what I can to assist in pushing on public works, promoting settlement, developing the varied resources of this magnificent country, and at same time maintaining the efficiency of our educational and other social institutions. Trusting to meet you before the day of election, and thanking the roquisitionists for their confidence, I have the honor to remain, Your most obedient servant, GEO.'TURNBULL.
