Gentlesien, —At the request of a number of my former supporters, I am again a candidate for the representation of your Ward in the City Council. It has been objected to my fitness for the Council that I have been so short a time in the colony, and am unacquainted with your wants. I am, at all events, cognizant of many abuses existing in the government of the city—abuses which I have not shrank from exposing, and some of which have been removed. I object to Councillor George’s proposal to double the rates for five years ; and I also object to the current year’s rates being expended in the formation of new streets and works, which should be done from a Capital Account, the payment of which should extend over a period of fifty years. Future ratepayers will reap the benefit of their formation and should help to pay the piper. The scavengering of the city should he done by contract, a special rate being made to defray the cost. The draining and sewering is of paramount importance, and require immediate attention, on the part of the Council. Your Ward is entitled to further representation in the Council, and should be divided into two, with three members for each ; and I shall, whether elected or not, take steps to effect such division. Uniform rating, economically and fairly ex-, pended among the different Wards, is the platform on which I stand, and, if elected, I shall stick to my colors. If rejected, I shall still continue to agitate and fight for what I consider the interests of the Ward and the city at large. I am, Gentlemen, Yours truly, C. MOODY. Courtenay-place, January 30.
