NELSON CITY LOAN FOR GAS AND WATERWORKS. mHE TIME for receiving TENDERS for JL DEBENTURES, to be issued under the authority of "The Nelson City Loan Act, 1871," is EXTENDED to the 30th day of APRIL instant. JOSEPH SBEPHARD, Provincial Treasurer. Treasury, Nelson, llth April, 1872. 707 TO THE ELECTORS OF THE CITY OF NELSON. Gentlemen — I beg to offer myself as a candidate for the seat in the General Assembly, vacated by your late representative, Mr. Lightband. lam encouraged to do this by the support which I met at the late general election ; although proposed to you by my friends at the eleventh hour, without any previous concert with myself, and during my absence on another contest. It is impossible not to see that the Colony is now in great political and financial danger, and that unless a stop is soon put to the large excess of expenditure over income not only the public credit must break down, but a taxation of persons and properties must follow, so heavy as to be ruinous to whole classes, and which will tend to depopulate the country and to drive away capital, in spite of the immigration that is being attempted. If elected I should then chiefly -work in helping, Ist., To restore economy to the public service, and a proper balance to the finances; 2nd., To give greater independence to Parliament by a proper Disqualification Act; 3rd., To introduce prudence and calculation into the public enterprises by protecting them against scrambling and haste in their adoption, and waste and jobbery in carrying out; 4th., To recover control for the Legislature and the opportunity of criticism for the public over the plans for immigration,— placing them under such management and such restrictions as may guard the present colonists as well as the new-comers from the hardships that attend and follow ill-advised wholesale importations of people. I should exert myself, also, to secure your present liberal system of public education against the dangers that now threaten it, and to extend its benefits to the rest of the colony; and I should be a hearty supporter of all legislation tending to social improvements. I have the honor to be, Gentlemen, Your obedient Bervant, J. C. RICHMOND. College Hill, Nelson, April 18th, 1872.
