TO THE ELECTOBS ofWAIBAUAPA nENTLEMENTHE present Parliament lias, for all practical purposes, censed to exist. I thank yon sincerely for tlie confidence you have hitherto reposed in me by twice electing mo one ot your representatives. The Representation Act provides for the division of the Wnirarapa electorate into t\w districts, viz., TVairarana North and Wairarapa Snutli. It is my intention to offer myself as a candidate for the northern division. I therefore avail myself of the present opportunity to assure the electors that, if elected, I shall ever consider it to he n pleasing duty to promote the interests of both electorates with which I have lo"g been so intimately connected. Again thanking you for the evidences of kindness and confidence which I have always received at your bauds, I remain. Gentlemen, Yours faithfully, GEORGE BEETHAM. TO THE ELECTOES op WAIRAEAPA pENTLEMEN,I have the honor to inform yon 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 of the day.

I will not now attempt to do more than ask you to believe—if you think mo worthy of a continuance oi your confidGuco—that I shall Always endeavor, to the utmost of ray ability, to assist in the material development of Now Zealand generally, and especially that of Wairarapa, one of the most promising country districts oi the Colony. I remain, Youra faithfully GKORUE BEETHAM. TO THE ELECTORS of WAIUAHAPA SOUTH, /1 ENTLEMEN,As a working settler of twenty years, standing, I respectfully offer myself as a candidate to represent you in the new Parliament. Without wishing to raise any class cr/, I may state that in my opinion the time has arrived when all classes of settlors should be represented. Hitherto the small holders of property have not h vd their share of representation. In my long mid intimate acquaintance with the working of the laws under which we live, it lias caused me often to feel that such a state of things ought not to exist. It is really no list 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 fav«r of many actions of the present Oovermnont, yet believing as I u> that unlliiiehing economy is still necessary in tlm 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 of the peodo and the advancement oi '.he colony generally.

With extended poweis, I believe the County Councils, in conjunction with cur 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 promised to mo wherever 1 have made my views known has encouraged me to ask for the houor of representing you. I own to no personal feeling in the coutost, but simply an honorable ambition to serve my fellowsettlers, I hope to meet you at the various towns throughout Soutli Wairarapa, and will then more fully explain my political creed, Yours faithfully, BURTON BOYS, I Taratihi, September 28,1551.
