TO THE RATEPAYERS OF THE COOK AND WAIAPU HARBOR DISTRICT. Ladies and gentlemen,— As previously announced, 1 am a Candidate for the vacancy oil the Gisborne Harbor Board. I am satisfied that our future prosperity will be materially aided by securing a reliable Outer Harbor, and, with this in view, consider that, a scheme based on the best engineering advice possible should be placed belli r the ratepayers at the earliest opportunity.

J. am also of opinion that the expenditure on the river should bo curtailotl as far as is compatible with keeping the channel open to its present depth, and maintaining the best shipping facilities possible, and consider this can be well done without the strikng of a rate. I would strongly oppose any unnecessary expenditure in blasting in the river other than the removal of any rocks that may be found obstructive to tile traffic ill the channel. .Any measures brought forward calculated to advance the interests of the District, or to afford increased facaiities for handling our produce and merchandise at the port, or conducive to the comfort ol the travelling public, will meet with my hearty co-operation. I remain, Yours faithfully. T. HOLDEN. OIL ENGINES. MR. A. WILLIAMSON begs to announce that having secured the local agency of the famous BLACICSTONE 'OIL ENGINE, the best oil tho market, lie, is now prepared to accept orders for same.
