W4WAM SOUTH, v UrBNTLBMEN,As a working settlor of twenty years, standing, I reapectfnlly offer myself as a candidate to represent yon in the new Parliament, Without wishing to raise any olass erf, I may state that in my opinion the timo has arrived when all classes of settlers should bo represented. Hitherto the small holders of property have not h\d their Bhare of representation. In my long and intimate acquaintance with the working of the. laws, under which we live, jt has caused me ofte* to fejl that Ruoh a state of thijigp ought ijoj to exist. It' is really no ÜBt our burking this question; all feel that a change ia necessary. The large holders already have their roprcsontative, and we are entitled to ours,' ' : ■■;' Although not altogether in favor of many actions of the; present, Government,': yet believing as I do that nnflmohing'eodnomy is still necessary in thn - ! administrati»n of our finances, I sbajj be'preparod to giro the Hall administration an independent support reserving to myself the rigl)t to vpte fof whatever I consider to be for the'benefit qf the pooolo the'advancement of the colony, generally, With extended poweis, I believe, .the County Councils, in conjunction wj ''~ Highway Boards, are capable 7 good work, being firmly'of pplrfi Counoil comprised of our. feUqw / 'sliiie'ra must necessarily be'better ijquainted with our .requiroments and the management *f local' affairs • than a Government official " located at Wellington. .' ! ' ; . The generous amount of supportjproftised to' me wherever-1 have'.made my views known has encouraged me to askforjhe honor of'representing you; ' I dwntonp' personal feeling in, the contestant wss> an honorable ambition to serve .my settlers, '; :' ; ' I hope to meet you at the yariQujr tywiis throughout South Wairarapa, and wiU'th'en more fully explain my political creed, ~.•■' Yours faitbMy, \\-, :
