TO THE ELECTORS OF THE CITY OF NELSON. __ ' ■'' r;i - - ! f\ ENTLEMEN,— At the request of a large vX* number oi Electors. lam again induced to offer myself as a Candidate to. represent you in the Next Provincial Council, and should you confer that honor upon me, it will be my earnest endeavour to fully develope the vast mineral resources of the Province. • I remaia/youra respectfully, ' , ROBERT BURN. Nelson, October 27. 1873. 2710 TO^THE ELECTORS OF THE CITY OF NELSON. fi ENTLEMEN,— I am a Candidate for one VT of the Seats for ; the City in the next ; Provincial Council. ... Should you, in conjunction with the Electors of other districts return me, and those who think with me by large majorities, I pledge, myself to endeavor, with the aid of my friends, to compel an entire change in the policy of the present Provincial Government, and to substitute in lieu thereof a policy that will see thst the General Government carry out those works for which our Kepresentatives have obtained the sanction of tho General Assembly; such as the survey and ultimate execution of the railway- from Eoxhiil to Brunnerton; will endeavor, to improve our Port, so that, in connection with the .above, railway, it may command the trade of the West Coast, be the great coal depot of the colony, and afford employment for a large population ; will promptly and efficiently execute such smaller works as the Provincial funds admit of; will exercise: strict economy in departmental and miscellaneous, expenditure, with the xisvr of expending as 'much money as possible on public works; and will offer every facility for the development of. our coal, iron, and gold, and the employment therein of our own money and that of foreign capitalists. Yours, faithfully, : 2732 ACTON ADAMS. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE CITY OF NELSON. pi ENTLEMEN,— I beg ; to solicit your Votes vT as a Candidate for representing the City of Nelson in the next Provincial Council. I am the more emboldened to claim your support because I have willingly undertaken the numerous honorary offices you have requested me to fill during the past twenty years, and, as I hope, generally to your satisfaction. . As I hold opinions somewhat opposed to the .traditional ideas of our Provincial Government, 1_ seek a seat in the Council to enforce, if possible, on our future Superintendent and Executive, the necessity of their initiating Public Works and opening up the country, and not • limiting the functions of Government, as hitherto, to mere administration. The past four years have been so trying and depressing to the bulk of the inhabitants of the Province,- that., a considerable number of our population have emigrated to other places, the cause of this depression and exodus I attribute in a great measure to the supineness of the governing body in not^providing work. -for our then surplus labor, and thus retaining our laborers until they; settled, down,- to some remunerative employment. , ... ..... For this mistaken policy we shall now be compelled to pay a heavy price in' introducing people to supply the labor -that will soon be required utl developing our coal, iron, and other treasures. ] ■' ■ . ; r "-' ' TV ';.■'■■. Should I be fortunate enough to gain the-seat I covet, I shall endeavor to make the Province more prosperous than it has lately been by carefully studying the best means of legislative : action to utilise our resources, ; Aad remain, yours obediently, ' : i 2*6? ■ - WILLIAM BOUT.
