Electoral tton of strictly public works, and those of a reproductive character'; the schedule of such works to be in the first place approved of by Parliament previous to the money beiug raised. The financial position of the colony, I am convinced, demands the earnest attention of every colonist, and as your representative I would be prepared to support most substa..!i:il reductions being made in the cost of the administration. A self reliant policy I hold to be the policy for the future, in order to secure the conlinued prosperity of the Colony. I am opposed to the acquisition of large areas of native lands by private persons or companies for speculative purposes. It may appear almost unnecessary for me to refer to purely local questions, my opinions on such being probably well known, but I may say that the construction of the Thames and Waikato railway, the acquisition of the freehold of the goldfield, and the throwing open of all lands for settlement are | matters that would claim my. earliest attention. As it is my intention to personally address you at an early date, I shall tak9 that opportunity of enlarging upon [ the matters referred to above, and shall also speak upon other subjects of interest to the electors. I am, Gentlemen,Your Obedient Servant, Wm. McCullough. (For eonthuation of this class of Advertisements see Fourth Page.) Flower Show Flower Show.
