“It will be seen elsewhere that Captain Porter has sacrificed his chance of being returned as a member for the East Coast, by announcing his retirement from the contest. The motive which has actuated Captain Porter is a very honorable one. He saw that it was the intention of all the candidates to go to the poll, and that if he stood the voting would be so split up that all chance of putting a local man in would be lost. It is tolerably certain that Captain Porter would have headed the local candidates ; but still, as each of the others had their own friends and supporters, the votes would have been so divided that the Tauranga candidate would have had a much larger probability of being returned. Even now, if Mr. Woodbine Johnson and Mr. Allan McDonald fight against each other they will, by the splitting of votes, be doing their utmost in the interests of Captain Morris ; at any rate that appears to be the general opinion out of doors. However, Captain Porter has made the first sacrifice, and this should not be forgotten, if, at another time, and with a distinct electorate for Poverty Bay, the retiring candidate should again come forward to seek the suffrages of the electors.” From the foregoing I feel assured you will award me the credit of having then retired in the interests, and welfare of the district ; and in fulfilment of my past promise—the district having now become a separate electorate —I again stand forth seeking your suffrages, and nothing shall deter me from going to the Poll. I am Gentlemen, lours faithfully, T. W. PORTER. Gisborne, 13th, Oct., 1881. 559
