Electoral Notices TO THE ELECTORS OE THE CITY OF WELLINGTON. GENTL EMEN.—In offering myself as a i candidate for the vacancy in, the representation of the city,.l do so in the conviction that my political opinions are very much in unison with those of a'majority of the electoral body. I am very strongly in favor of a vigorous prosecution of the Public Works policy, in so far as the completion of unfinished lines of useful railway and other reproductive undertakings is concerned. I regard it as a public loss that railway lines, such as that from Wellington to Masterton, should not have been pushed on more expeditiously in i the past. The group of Local Government Acts which became law in 1876 are essentially sound in principle. They preserve the true tradition of British liberty ; but having been factiously opposed in their progress, and ultimately passed in haste, the Acts themselves require amendent in , detail. Their consideration and improvement should form an important item i of parliamentary business next session. To derive the full benefit which an extension of Public Works.and the institution of Local Government is capable of conferring upon the country, our land laws require further reviniou, so that settlement by an industrious i population may easily be effected without burdensome conditions. 1 A general system of free primary education, whereby the children of the colony can be ; taught useful knowledge, without reference to ; religious dogma, ought to be one of the earliest measures brought before Parliament, a measure I should have much satisfaction in supporting. I am an earnest advocate of economy and ’ retrenchment in Government expenditure, wherever these can be applied without detri- ■ ment to the public service. Knowing that the members of the Govern- ! ment are administering the affairs of the i country satisfactorily-; believing, moreover, i that they are fully aware of the requirements of the colony, and will be prepared at the i proper time, to submit to the Legislature such : measures as may be necessary to meet their requirements,—l have ne hesitation iu stating that the present Government should have my firm support. It seems almost unnecessary for me to add i that any proposals likely to militate against the permanent establishment of the city of Wellington as the seat of Government fora united colony, would encounter my most strenuous opposition; while everything tending i to advance its interests might reckon, with equal certainty, on my hearty support. And I can see no reason to anticipate the least likelihood of divided counsels amongst those who are actuated by similar views on these points. Respectfully soliciting your suffrages, I have the honor to be, Gentlemen, ■ Your obedient servant, WILLIAM HUTCHISON. ■ March 5.
