Hitherto the small holders if property have not h\d their share of re» •iresentition. In my long and intimate icquaintance with the working of the laws und'ir which we live, it has caußed me often to feel that f>uch a state of thingß ought not 0 exist. It is really no nst our burking this quertion; all feel that a change is iieoemry. The large holders already have ■heir rcpreßontativo, and we are entitled 'o ours. ■ Although not altogethor in favor of many lotions of the present Government, yet relieving as I do that unflinobing: economy' is still necessary in the administration of <>ur finances, I shall be prepared to givo tho, Hall administration an independent support reserving to myself the right to vote for whatever I consider to be for the benefit of Iho peoulo and the advancement of tho With extended poweis, I believe the Oounty Councils, in conjunction with our llighwaj Boards, aro capable of much ijoud work, being firmly of. opinion that a Council comprised of onr fellow-sektlera uust necessarily be better acquainted with • mr requirements, and the management el ocal affaire than'a Government official , oca f ed at Wellington. The gunerous amount of support'promißed to me wherever 1 have made my views' known has encouraged me to oak for the mnor of representing you. I own to no oKrsonal feeling in the ooiitwV'burtiinply in honorable ambition to servo my fellow* settlers. • ' I hope to meet you at the-various towns throughout South Wairarapa; and will then more fully explain my politico) ereed. Yours faithfully, - : Tarat.ihi, September 28,1<181. ' i.j
