TO THE ELECTORS or WAIRARAPA, gENTLEMENTHE present Parlinment !ms, for all practical purposes, ceaoed to exist. I thank you . sincerely for the conHdcnco you have hitherto reposed in me by twice electing mo one of your representatives. The llnpresentation Act provides for the division of the "Wnirarapa electorate into two districts, viz,, "Wairarapa North aud Wairarapa myself as a candidate for the northern division. I therefore availmyself of the present opportunity to assure the electors that, i(| elected, I shall ever consider it to b'{''n pleasing duty to promote the interests ol both electorates with which I have lo»g been so intimately connected. Again thanking you for the evidences ol kindness and confidence which I have always received at your hands, I remain. Gentlemen, Yours faithfully, GEORGE BEETHAM. 885 TO THE ELECTORS of WAIRARAPA • NORTH. QENTLEMEN,I havo the honor to inform you that it is my intention to offer myself as a candidate for the representation of your district at the approaching general election. I shall ask you to meet me at the various centres of the Electorate, in order to afford me opportunities for explaining fully my views on political questions ot the day. I will not. now attempt to do mure than ask you to believe—if you think mo worthy o! 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 tho most promising country districts of the Coloay. I remain, Yours faithfully ftKORUE BEETHAM.

TO THE ELECTORS of WAIHAIIAPA SOUTH. As a working settler oi twenty years, standing, I respectfully offer myself as a candidate to represent yon in the new Parliament. Without wishing to raise any class I may state that in my opinion the time lias arrived when all classes of settlers should be represented. Hitherto the small holders of property have not hvd their share of representation. In my long and intimate acquaintance with the working of the laws under which we live, it has caused me often to feel that ouch a state of things ought not 1o exist. It is really no list our burking this question; all feel that a chwgo is necessary. The large holders already have their r presentative, and we are entitled to ours, 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 t'i myself tho right to vote for whatever I consider tu lie fur the benefit of the peonle and the advancement of the colony generally. With extended poweis, I believe the County Councils, in conjunction with our Highway Boards, are capable of much good work, being fiunly of opinion that a Council comprised of our fellow-Bottlers must necessarily be better acquainted with our requirements and the management of looal affairs tlinu a Government official located at Wellington. The generous amount of support promised to me wherever 1 have made my views known has encouraged me t.o ask for- the honor of representing you. I own to no pets'mal feeling in the contest, but simply an honorable ambition to servo my fellowsettlers., I hope to meet you at the various towns throughout South Wairarapa, and will vhen more fully explain my political creed, Yours faithfully, • UUUTON BOYS, Taratahi, September 28,1381.
