TO THE BURGESSES OF GISBORNE, 1' ADIES AND GENTLEMEN,— . I beg to offer you my services as a member of the Borough Council. I appeal to you on the question of sanitation. "Within a few months we shall have an abundant supply of pure water throughout the Borough, but, having broqglit -the water into the town, it will be necessary to carry it out again. Failing an efficient system of drainage the health-of the town will be a good deal worse thou it is at present, because every section will he swamped with water. 1 advocate that a scheme of drainage should he immediately undertaken to cleanse the town and abolish the present "abominable sanitary arrangements. The question of proper provision for cases of infectious diseases is also most urgent. Should you do mo the honor" to elect me I shall do my utmost to see that these matters receive prompt attention.

M U NICIB Al< ELECT I ON. TO TUB BURGESSES OK THE BOROUGH OF GISBORNE. IN offering my services as a Councillor for a further term, T confidently refer you to tlic records ot the expiring term, and leave you to declar.e at the ballot-box whether or not I have endeavored to fulfil the pledge given to you two years ago, to work' honestly "and assiduously in the interests of the whole Borough. Should you doom that my past services entitle me to re-election, I shall leave no stone unturned to promote the progress of Gisborne. Briefly, my views of our urgent requirements are: l. The speedy completion of our Waterworks. 2. An effective, and up-to-date Drainage extending through the whole Borough. a. "When the J,oau for such Drainage scheme is being raised. J. am of opinion that a sum of from ten to fifteen thousand- should he added to tho amount thereof for Road Improvements. it being quite impossible to undertake men urgent requirements from ordinary revenue; sufd the great saving in maintenance of work once properly accomplished would, l am convinced, more than pay interest and sinking fund, and. thus result in a substantial animal saving. 4. The setting up of a Select Committee of the Council for the purpose of endeavoring to acquire the Gasworks, or, in the event of being unable to come to reasonable terms, the installation of a system of Electric Lighting. C. The erection of suitable !}•■- venue-earning Municipal Buildings. 11l conclusion, let me assure you you of my firm faith in the stability and future prospects of our town, : and my firm conviction tfuit, with increasing values and a prudent administration, all the above progressive improvements can he accomplished witp but a trifling increase (if any) of our present rate. Yours faithfully, JOHN SHERIDAN. April 20th, 1907,
