Mr W, 0. Buchanan clming the few years that he has been living in the Wairarapa has proved himself st sterling settler and in looal matters has received a large amount of confidencn which has been well deserved on his part, it is no winder under such ciroumstances that he should have sought pt a fitting opportunity the highest honor his fellow settlers could jjiestow upon him, Whether he will be successful or not it is impossible to determine. Should he be'fortunate enough to win, it may be 'said that tho Wairarapa will have a very honest and worthy representative. His address which appears in another column will, as far as it goes, commend itself to the approbation of most of our readers, Bis sentiments in favour of a united VVairarapa ought to find an echo, and his desire to dovelope the natural resources of the district has been manifested on. so many former 'ocoasions that it will be accepted as sincere on thepresent one. The only Special question'

nee that it iij decidedly in favor of making short and sharp work with Te Whiti. MiMr Buohanan does not pledge himself to support any particular political party, it returned. We should bo sorry to seo any representative tied hand and foot to any particular Ministry. There will no doubt come-a time when the Hall Ministry, in the ordinary course of events will have to give way to 6ome other Government, but that time has not yet arrived, and the present ministers have " good work" left in them which will, we trust, be accomplished beiore they retire from office.
