McKirdy, and .20 others, GENTLEMEN,—I shall be much pleased to accede to yourrequest;to be nominated as a candidate for Lambton Ward, and thank you for' the confidence it implies For the first time in Wellington I. have: now "ample timei'to devote.to the duties of the office, and will, if elected, do my best for your interests/ I think that the Town Hall project may; be now_ hung up till we can afford to put up a building of briuk orstone, without trenching on money wanted more urgently for useful works, such as street-making. ' While considering drainage all-important, I would object strongly tp conimittiag the ratepayers to any scheme; without first ae; curing the professional opinion of< disinterested experts that the plan was likely to, be efficient, economical, and the 'best, to be followed ,-under the circumstances.; not think this has been' done, yet with respect to the schema' at present under; consideration. Hoping to see Wellington tfae ■seapprt for the Beaboard of half of New Zealand—North and South —I would endeavor to minimise the expense of receiving and delivering goods in this'port I should be glad'to hold out every inducement for the erection of brick party walla throughout the town in case of fire, and to enoourage the erection of more substantial buildings. I think that we should endeavor to make Wellington more comfortable to the membera of the Legislature, whose presence here annually, at great personal sacrifice, does incalculable good. I would endeavor to put the magnificent public reserves we possess ■ to mors popular use, and resist the alienation of them, either permanently or for an unreasonable time, as I am convinced that they will soon b&come, essential te the health' of a city rapidly increasing in population.
