TO THE ELEOTOES of WAIRABAPA n ENILEMEN,TheWairarapa being divided into two Electoral Districts, I beg to offer myself as a candidate to represent the Southern Division in the next Parliament. Having represented the Electors o! the Wairarapa in five successive Parliaments, I with confidence ask you to again elect me. As booh as the Writs are out, I shall invite you to meet me in the several centres of Your obedient secant,' W'MY RIIWI. TO THE ELECTtiKS vi WAIRARAPA n ENTLEMEN,-

In accordance with my aire idy puhl'shad intention, I now beg to "ff r nme'f is a oiudidate f»r the represent tation (if ynur district at the coming general election, I cannot but regret the recent dMiion nf the old electorates, and hi this expression I feci satisfied public sympathy I jjno with me—not only in this, but in the | (lie majority of other districts of the colony, Union, and not dissension, shoul I be the walchward of all the sections of such a district as this, as well as of all its settlers, whether living in town or country, The widespread feeling which has recently ar son that if we are to prosper as a colony we must unite in developing the many natural resources which He in abundance around us, has found its expression in the prominence attuned by the local government and other similar questions during last session of Parliament. Since becoming a settler amongst you, any services I may, have been able to render in this direction have always met with the most generous recognition; and 1 can only assure yon that, if elected, no effort on my part will be spared in assisting to place these allimportant questions upon a m" ' footing, The Native questioa requires more than passing notice, It is intolerable that the colony should be called upon to maintain a standing army at such a ruinous expendi ture, and Te Whili should be sternly told (in deeds, and not in words), that his latest departure is in reality his last. Upon the other various questions which will engage the attention, of electors, I iball lie happy to explain my views at the several centres of population in the electorate. While freely acknowledge the importai t services rendered by the Hall Gnvernnwnt at a critical period of the colony's history I thai, dcc.ine to pledg-: inyst;f to aiy p irty, but will give my support in tlu direction l.eat calculated to d vcloj e the muteii.il interes's of the coui try generally, ■ I remain, Yuiiis faithfully, v.
