Gentlemen, —Mr. Travers having resignet his seat in Parliament as one of your menu bors, I have the honor to offer myself as £ candidate to fill the vacancy. If you think I can be of service to you, anc see fit to re-elect me to the position of one of your representatives, I shall as heretofon do my best to prove myself worthy of youi confidence. I have the honor to ho, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, EDWARD PEARCE. Wellington, Jan. 25, 1873. rtpo THE ELECTORS OF THE CITY JL OF WELLINGTON. Gentlemen, — I beg to announce that my father is a candidate for your suffrages at the forthcoming election of a member to represent this city in Parliament. My father’s political opinions are those of an advanced Liberal; lie has been for twentytwo years identified with Liberalism. He was one of the originators of the Melbourne Land League, and sat as member for tbs democratic constituency of North Melbourne up to the time of his leaving for New Zealand in 18Q2. His views are entirely in accord with those of tha Liberal party in Parliament, and therefore, if elected, lie will give his heart;,’ support and co-operation to Sir George Grey’s I Ministry. j Mr. Fox’s Local Option Bill is, in my father’s opinion, an effort in the right dueit'm, and calculated to raise the tone and honor the | condition of the community. He thinks that the principle of that Bill, viz,, that, the people should have a voice in the matter, is a ji:-t one, and that the result would probably _be not, perhaps, to diminish the number of licensed bouses, but to improve them; to make them less of drinking saloons, and more of accomodation houses, and by suitable arrangements! convert them into tdub-liko centres’ of intelligence and rational intercourse. With this view, my father would concur in Mi. Fox’s Bill, or any similar measure. May I be permitted to say that the member for Wellington ought to bo a man who can effectively enunciate the views of his constituents. I am, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, ELLIOT L’ESTRANGE BARTON. February 5,1878.
