10 THE ELECTORS OF THE WAIRABAPA. which 1ha,70 represented for so many years. It is my intention to hold meetings at the 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 hearty support to tho programme of the Liberal party, including the repeal of nnd Income Tax, the reduction of the taxation on the necessaries of life, liberal Land Laws, Triennial Parliaments, the vigorous projection of Public Works, and other Liberal measures which were indicated in the Governor's speech at the opening of Parliament. .
I have the honor to be, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, HENBY BUNNY. August 11th, 1879. 993 WiIfiARAPA. Gentlemen— A Government ivhichhas been declared by an overwhelming majority in Parliament to be guilty of th* ".grossest maladministration " has appealed to the people against this verdict. In my opinion, it ought to be thoroughly endorsed by a refusal to re-elect those who voted on the Government side The two members for this district on tin's, as on nearly all previous occasions, gave opposite votes, therefore, if there is anything like political consistency, it isimpossible I hat hth can again jointly represent you This being the ease, 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 milking 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 monopoliso the name of ''Liberals." It seems to me absurd to say that we must submit to their maladministration, because thciv principles are right, when there is nothing to prevent our securing the advantages of the latter, without the evils of the former. Tliese principles are held by most thinking men in the colony as it lias been long seen that the progress of events has prepared the way for their adoption, and 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 abansubslituted. The urgent wants of ihe country are, in my opinion, retrenchment, a satisfactory solution of the Native difficulty, with a view to the speedy occupation of lands now so unprofitably 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 snflicient capital to settle on land, and of capital in any way which will tend to devolop the resources of the colony. Concurrently with this some better provision must be made 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 in a position to fulfil the obligations thrown on them. °
In conclusion I will only say that 1 have now been long enough before you in various wijwwuua w euamo you to lorm an opinion as to how far I am qualified for the honorable position in which I ask you to place me. I trust every elector will recognise the importance of tne contest, and will not therefore fail to record his vote. I hope soon to address you at a series of meetings when I will more fully explain my views, I am, Gentlemen, Yours respectfully, C. PHARAZYN.
