It is really no use our burkiug this question; all feel that a change is necessary. The large holders already have their rcpresootfttivo, and wo are entitled to oure, Although not altogether in favor of. many actions of the present Government, yet believing as I do that unflinching economy is still necessary in the administration of our finances, I shall be prepared to give the Hall administration an indoponilent support reserving to myself the right to vote for whatever I consider to be for the benefit of the peoofe and the advancement qf the With, extended poweiß, I believe the .County Councils, in conjuuotipn witrf 4 Highway Boards, are capable of ma good work, being'firmly of opinion that ft Council comprised of our fellow-settlers mußt necessarily be better acquainted with, our requirements and the management of local affairs than a Government offjoiaj located at Wellington. The generous amount pi to mo wherever 1 have made my views known has encouraged me to ask for the honor of representing you, I own to bo personal feeling In the contest, but simply an honorable ambition to serve my fellow* settlers, I hope to meet you at the jrarious towns throughout South Wairarapa, and will then more fully explain my political creed.
