It is really no ust onr burking this question; all feel that a enrage is noeosuary. The large holders already hart their representative, and we are entitled to ours., Although not altogether in fav«? of many HHcSSHB iB still necessary in th* administration of our finances, I Bball be prepared to give the reserving to myself the right to vote for whatever I consider to be for the. benefit of the peoole and the advancement of the With extended poweis, I believe tie County Councils, in conjunction with oar Highway Boards, are oapable ef .amen guuu wvia, ovmg urimy w opinion inai I Council comprised of onr'fellow-settlers must necessarily be better acquainted with our requirements and the management ef local affairs than a Government official located at Wellington, known has encouraged me to ask for the honor of representing you.
