Electoral tion of strictly public works, and those of a reproductive characters the schedule of such works to be in the firsfc place approved of by Parliament previous to the money being raised. The financial posilioii of the colony, I am convinced, demands the earnest attention of every colonist, and as your representative I wonld be prepared to support most substantial reductions being made in the cost of the administration. A self reliant policy I hold to bo the policy for the future, in order to secure the continued 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 eaily date, I shall take 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. McCuLi,oxr»H. TO THE ELECTORS OP THE OLD THAMES DISTRICT. r\ ENILEMEN— VJ • .
