rpO THE ELECTORS OP THE i- WAIRARAPA. Gentlemen— In view of the dissolution of Parliament, I have respectfully to intimate that it is my intention to seek re-election for the district which Ihave represented for so many years. several centres of population, when I shall place my views on matters both of local and general interest fully before you. In the meantime I may state that I intend to give a hewty support to the programme of the Liberal party, including the repeal of the Land Tax, the imposition of a Property and Income Tax, the reduction of the taxation on the necessaries of life, liberal Land Laws, Triennial Parliaments, the vigorous •prosecution of Public Works, and "other the Governor's speech at the opening of Parliament. I have the honor to be, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, HENRY BUNNY. August 11th, 1879. 223 WAIRARAPA. Gentlemen--

1. «»iv.,i,„u„ HHiuiuiß urai uuciarea oy an overwhelming majority in Parliament to be guilty of lias appealed to the people against this verdiet. In my opinion, it. oughi to he thoroughly endorsed by a refusal to re-elect The two members for this district on this,' as on nearly all previous occasions, gave opposite votes, therefore, if there is anything like political consistency, it is impossible that both can aeaiu jointly represent you. This being the case, I offer you my services," and, if elected, I shall do my best to assist to place, and support'in office, a Ministry which, instead of being content with enunciation of great principles, and making reckless promises, will give practical effect to the measures, which, in. my opinion, ought at once to be adopted, in order to avert both a Native War, and a serious financial catastrophe. I altogether deny the right of the present Ministry to monopolise the name of "Liberals. " It seems to mo absurd to say that we muit submit to their maladministration, because their principles are right, when there is nothing to prevent our securing the advantages of the latter, without the evils of the former, These principles arc held by most thinking men in the colony as it has been long seen that the progress of events has prepared the way for their adoption, and therefore I am quite prepared to support in the main, the measures indicated in the Governor' speech, but they must bo given effect to by more competent men than those who have so muddled the Land Tax, that after the enormous expense already incurred in attempting to collect it, there is every reason to believe that it will have to be abandoned, and an Income and Property Tax substituted,

The urgent wants ot tfio country tire, in my opinion, retrenchment, a satisfactory solution of the Native difficulty, with a view to the speedy occupation of lands now so impvofitably held by them. Settlement on Crown lands of the large proportion of our population, now dependent solely on public expenditure, Encouragement of the immigration of persons with sufficient capital to settle on land, and of capital in any way which wilt tend to toolop the resources of the colony. Concurrently with this some better provision must be mado than mere local rating for connecting tie outlying districts with the railway lines and for the formation and maintenance of roads through unsettled districts, and the Counties instead of being expected as at present to'' make bricks without straw" must be placed m a position to fulfil the obligations thrown on them. now been long enough before you in various capacities to enable you to form an opinion as to how far I am qualified for the honorable position m which 1 ask you to place me. I tomt every elector will recognise the importance of tne contest, and will not therefore fail 1o record his vote.
