I'he Act provides for the division of the Wairarapa electorate into twi districts, viz., Wairarapa North and Wairarapa Smith. It is my intention to offer myself as a candidate for the northern division. I therefore avail myself of tho present opportunity to assure the electors that, if elected, I shall ever consider it to he a pleasing duty to promote the interests of both electorates with which I have lo»g beon so intimately connected, Agaiu thanking you for the evidences of kindness and confidence which I have always received at your hands, I remain, Gentlemen, Yours faithfully, GEOEGE BEETHAM, TO THE ELECTORS op WAIRARAPA NORTH.

W. RENALL, TO THE ELECTORS of WAIRARAPA SOUTH. /.J.KNTLEAIEN,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 cry, I may state that in my opinion the time has arrived when all classes of settlers should be represented. Hitherto the small holders k property have, not h «l their share of re-
resentation. In my long and intimate cquaintauce with the working of tho laws nder which we live, it lias caused me often 3 feel that fuoh a state of things ought not o exist. It is really no ust our burking his question; all feel th it a charge is ecessary. Tho large holders already have hair representative, and wc are entitled Although not altogether in favnr of many itiona of tho presea-> llovernment, yet ilieving as I do that unflinching economy still necessary in thn ndministrotion of ir finances, 1 shall he prepared to give the all administration an independent support, serving to. myself the right to vote for hatever I consider to be for the benefit of ia peODle and the advancement of the ilony generally. ' With extended poweis, I believe the County Councils, in coujuuetion with our Highway Boards, are capable of much good work, being finnly of opinion that a Council comprised of our f..11.iw-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 me whertvor 1 have made my views known has encouraged me to ask for the honor of representing you. I own to no personal feeling in the contest, but simply an honorable ambition to serve my fellow, settlers. I hope to meet vou at the various towns throughout South Wairarapa, and will .hen more fully explain my political creed, Yours faithfully, ItUItTON BOYS.
