ELECTORS OF DUNEDIN. GENTLEMEN,- Having at the Nomination to-day promised to address you through the Press instead of in the various districts, I shall how, in a few words, state my views : premising, however, that I come before you a free and independent Candidate —desiring to know no party, as such, in the new Council, but resolved to give all the support I can to any proposals for benefiting the Province, come from what quarter they may. My views a’e then, shortly, as follow : Land. —I desire to see as much land thrown open as may be wanted for homes for ths thousands of immigrants expected shortly here, as also for many now in our midst, who have hitherto failed to procure any suitable for agricultural purposes, although having capital—extending to a few hundred pounds—ready to invest in such. I also desire that it shou’d be thrown open at the earliest possible date, on deferred payments (as provided for in the “ Waste Lands Act”), or otherwise, as applicants might wish; and further, that the new Waste Lands Act should be administered by the Board not according to the letter, but rather the spirit of the same. No large blocks should be sold to one person, unless the land be purely pastoral. Railways.—l am in favor of the immediate completion of our main lines, so that we may have an unbroken communication between the Buff and the Province of Canterbury ; and am also prepared to support the formation of branch lines of some sort wherever it appears they are really required to open up the country. Harbor Trust.—l am in favor of such, with a suitable endowment if it can be got. Roads and Bridges.—There remains much to be done under this head, and I would endeavor, so far as our means would admit, to have at least every dangerous river bridged, and proper approaches made to such bridges Gentlemen, whoever it may please you to elect as Superintendent, should I have the honor of being returned as one of your representatives, will have my support in carrying on the affairs of the Province in such a manner as will, I trust, conduce to a continuance of that prosperity which we are now enjoying. In conclusion, I have to ask the favor of your support, because 1 believe I could be of service to you in the Council; and trust that you will, on Tuesday next, take care that my name, at all events, is not struck out of the Voting Papers. JAMES P. MILLAR. Dunedin, June 5,1873. TO THE ELECTORS OF DUNEDIN. GENTLEMEN,— (hf Jmy return from Invercargill, on Wednesday last, 1 found that a large number of the Electors who kindly supported me at the last election expressed their wish that I should again become a candidate for a seat in the Council, and thinking that it would be ungenerous on my part to refuse to do so after the liberal support which I received on the last occasion, I have consented to their wishes, and trust that as my views are both “liberal and progressive,” that I may be favored with your confidence. As I do not intend bolding any meetings, having so recently addressed you, and believing that you must be tired of attending election meetings, I may briefly reiterate my opinion on some of the leading questions which are likely to occupy the attention of the Council. I am in favor of— The most liberal administration of the Land Act under the deferred payment d&UB6B. I Railways, tramways, and .all reproductive ! public works, on the most economical scale consistent with efficiency. A judicious system of immigration. The speedy development of the goldfields, coalfields, asd other natural resources. Such improvements in our educational machinery as may be recommended by competent persons. Harbor improvements under a Harbor Trust. If returned, I shall use my best efforts to assist any Executive that may have the confidence of the Council. I have the honor to be, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, E. PROSSER. PROVINCIAL COUNCIL ELECTION. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE CAVERSHAM DISTRICT. GENTLEMEN, —In compliance with the request of a number of the electors—including some of those who voted for my opponent at the last election—l beg to offer myself as a Candidate for the honor of representing you in the Provincial Council. I shall take an early opportunity of addressing the electors in the various portions of the district. I am, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, RICHARD H. LEARY.

TO THE CITIZENS OF DUNEDIN. ENTLEMEN, —I respectfully inform you that it is ray intention to contea* the Election for the Mayoralty, which take." place next month. Your most obedient servant, L THONEMAN.
