Electoral should bo to meu to acquire freeholds is a ftuhjjct upon which all are agreed, and assuming that purchasers might expect more libernl terms from the Government than from private holders, it is wise Jhat the Government should be tho purchaser from I .lie natives in the first place, tfucii being the case, the object of the administration in my opinion should be the speedy acquisition of all the waste lands of the Colony, and, being acquired, surveyed, and cut up, the Lnd 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 sucil lands would reimburse the Government for the firat cost, and besides might furnish the means of opening up the country by roads, and probably defray to some extent the cost of the branch lines of railways, which will require construction after the main or trunk lines are formed from the loans raised for that purpose upon the credit of the whole colony. It is scarcely necessary for me to refer to the question of Education, as for years I have been an advocate of tbe^present secular, free, and compulsory system, and if elected will strongly resist" any attempt to alter an Act which taw b<vn I'ound to pla.ee within th'n mack of every child in the colony the means of geMingi* good liberal education, and which has shico 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 ot" the Thames and Waikato Bailway, the construction of a line to the East Coast, the acquisition of the freehold of the goidfield, 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 lauds for selection, the question of aiding our timber and other industries, and a number of other matters, all bearing upon the best inteiests of this electorate, are objects that would receive my attention should I have the honor to be returned as your representative. I shall, at an early date, address you at the various centres of population, and at greater length make known my opinions upon such subjects as are of interest to this constituency. WM. McCULLOUGH.
