Electoral should be given to men to acquire freeholds is a subject upon which all are agreed, and assuming that purch»serß I 1 might expect more liberal terms from tho Government than from private holders, it is wise that the Government should be the purchaser from the natives in the first j place. Such being the case, the object of the administration in my opinion should bo the speedy acquisition of all the waste j, lands of the Colony, and, being acquired, surveyed, and cut up, the l»nd should be thrown open upon favorable terms to men willing to occupy, and in time to purchase under a system of deferred payments. The revenue derived from the sale of suck lands would reimburse the Gorernment for the first cost, a and besides might furnish the means c of opening up the country by roads, & and probably defray to some extent the t cost of the branch lines of railways, c which will require construction after the c main or trunk lines are formed from the i loans raised for that purpose upon the t credit of the whole colony. c It is scarcely necessary for me £ to refer to the question of Educa- J tion, as for years I have been an advocate of the present secular, free, and ( compulsory system, and if elected wilr strongly resist any attempt to alter an t Act which has* been found to place within , the reach of every child in the colony the j means of getting a good liberal education, t and which has since its introduction bestowed such blessings upon the youth of New Zealand. ' The claims of this electorate to a fair ] proportion of public works, the early completion of the Thames and Waikato Bailway, the construction of a line to the | Hast Coast, the acquisition of the freehold i of the goldfield, the claims of the local < governing bodies to continued monetary assistance from the Government, the ! amendment of the County and Municipal ' Corporations Act, the throwing open of : the Upper Thames lands for selection, ' the question of aiding our timber and other industries, and a number of other matters, all bearing upon the best interests : of this electorate, are objects that would receive my attention should I have the honor to be returned as your representative, i I shall, at an early date, address you at the various centres of population, and at greater length make known my opinions j upon such* subjects as are of interest to j j this constituency.
