TO THE ELECTORS of WAIBARAPA. nENTLEMENTHE present Parliament has, for all practical purposes, cea»ed to exist. I thank you sincerely for tlie confidence you have hitherto reposed in me by twice electing me one of your representatives. l'ho EfipresoDtnticn Act provides for the division of tho TYnirarapa electorate into two districts, viz,, IVairarapfi North and Wairarapa Smith. It is my intention to offer myself as a candidate for the northern division.

Again thanking you for the evidences of kindness and confidence which .1 have always received at your hands, I remain, Gentlemen, Yours faithfully, GEORGE BEETHAM. TO THE ELECTORS op WAIBARAPA NORTH. f IENTLEMENI have the honor to inform you that it is my intention to offer myself as a candidate for tho representation of your district at the approaching general election. I shall ask you to meet me at tho various centres of the Electorate, in order to afford me opportunities for explaining fully my views on political questions of the day. I will not now attempt to do more than ask you to believe—if yon think me worthy of a continuance ot your confidence—that I shall always endeavor, to the utmost of my ability, to assist in the material development of New Zealand generally, and especially that of Wairarapa, one of the most promising country districts of tho Colony, I remain, Yours faithfully GKORUE BEETHAM. TO THE ELECTORS of WAIRARAPA HENTLEMEN,As a working settler of twenty years, standing, I respectfully offer myself as a candidate to represent you in tho new Parliament.

It is really no ust our burking this question; all feel that a change is necessary. The large holders already have their representative, and we are entitled
Although not altogether in favor of many actions of the present Government, yet believing as I do that unflinching economy is still necessary in tlw administration of our finances, I shall be prepared to give the Hall administration an independent support, reserving to myself the right to vote for whatever I consider to be for the benefit oi the peoule and the advancement of the colony generally. With extended poweis, I believe the County Councils, in conjuuction with our Highway Boards, are capable of much good work, being firmly of opinion that a Council comprised of our fellow-settlers must necessarily be better acquainted with our requirements and the management of local affairs than a Government official located at Wellington.
The generous amount of support promisod to mo wherever 1 have made my views known lias encouraged me to ask for the honor of representing you. I own to no personal feeliug in the contest, but simply an honorable ambition to serve my fellowI hope to meet von at the various towns throughout South Wairarapa, and will -;lien more fully explain my political creed, Yours faithfully, BURTON BOYS, j Taratahi, September 28, ISBI. mO TRAVEL this "i JL season between *i Jnstiepoint and MasterIt m, calling at intorme.liute plates, the purebred Clydesdale stallion, SIR WILLIAM WALLACE.
