TO THB BURGESSEffOFMASTERTON, T ADIESAHDOEOTLEMBNAi a candidate (or the office of Mayor, I did not think it necessary to address you, aato my imt on Municipal mutters aro well known to all. But after hearing Mr Hornblow'a remarks about the Council and myself, at thn risk of beiug considered personal, I take tho liberty of replying to somo of them. Re High Pressure Water Supply.—Mr Hurnhlow eajs" The more ho looked into It tho greater the fraud it appeared to be, Why should the ratepayers bo taxed to water somebody's garden ?" Now, I say that until h« had thought of contorting the Mayoralty, he was a strenuous supporter ol nigh pressure water supply. His support of Mr Itenall's sohomo it also characteristic Next, as to Gas Works.-Tho Council is taxed with incompetence and neglcofc, and he says in effect "put mo In tho ohair and I will make the works pay 10 or 15 per cent, profit." Also that it would take from £BOO to £I2OO tj put tho works in orde-. - Now sinco the erection of the works the first water tnnk has leaked badly, and Mr Hornblow says ho Is in favour of a cast iron tank for that. Now that alone is estimated to cost £1,500, So much f x his financial ability, Tho second-hand holder was purchased on the recommendation, and constructed under the supervision of their Managor.and although it is not altogether satisfactory,' yet Mr Hornblow's remarks about it being " utterly useless," are great nonsense, His personal remarks about myself I will pass over, They are unworthy of notice He also accuses tho Council of •' Deceit and dishonesty," I challenge him to prove an instance. Mr Hornblow also claims credit for everything that has been done in the Council sinco ho has been a member, Now except making disjointed and inaccurate statements, and abusing his fellow couneillors,hehas done nothing. lean saywithout being accused of vanity-that I know more of the management of the Gas Works and the affnirs o! the Council than Mr Hornblow is oapablo of knowing, I would also like to point out that Mr Hornblow has not a single supporter at the Council table, alter sitting there lor eleven month], and it he does get into tho Otmir, no good results can follow. I claim that I have presided over the affairs of the Borough for the past year satisfactorily, and that I work well with'the councillors, even with those who are opposed to mo on principle, Looking hopefully for yonr support on I remain, Your obedient servant, GEORGE EERON,
