Special Advertisements, fj-10 THU ELECTORS OF VVAJI'A. Oksti.kmi'N,— Parliament having this day bi;en dissolved, I. beg to offer myself as a Candidate for your suffrages, and will address you at the various centres of population at times and places to he hereafter notified. In the meantime I will merely state that, if elected, 1 shall be found in opposition to the present Government, or any nconstruction of the same. I will honestly endeavour to reduce expenditure within revenue without increasing taxation. I am opposed to any unnecessary taxation for purely protective purposes, and shall advocate reform form in the working of our railways and their management, so as to encourage the settlement of the up country districts, and am also prepared to advocate that a fair trial he given to Mr Valle’s system. L shall take an early opportunity of meeting you, when I shall enter more fully into details on the several topics above referred to, and others which may require explanation.— I am, gentlemen, Yours faithfully, VVM. JACKSON. Kihikihi, July 16th, 1887. fjpO THE ELECTORS OF WAIKATO. Ok.vtlejik.v,— l regret that the state of my health still prevents me from pub lioly addressing you in the various centres of population. 1, however, hope to he able to do so before very long. Meanwhile, 1 desire to say that I hear Mr Russell is obtaining some promises of support by representing that, having confessed my inability to advocate conscientiously the adoption of a scale of charges referring to passenger fares oidy (in some cases as low as 4d for 50 miles), I am therefore opposed to reform in railway management altogether, and that in fact my sympathies arc with the Department as against my fellow-settlers. I desire to give this an unqualified denial. I am and always have been deeply interested in obtaining a simpler and a lower scale of railway rates and charges, particularly as regards the carriage of goods. Fur this I have always striven and will continue to strive. To do otherwise would be simple folly. My interests and yours are identical. Anything that benefits you benefits me. Anything that injures you injures me. If settlors he driven out of the country, I must go also. Your prosperity and mine and that of my children must go hand in hand.

When I meet you shortly on the platform, I am certain that 1 can convince yon all that I have the interests of Railway Reform as much at heart as anyone ; that I have not been idle in the matter ; that the results, although apparently small, have been of some conseipicncu ; ami may become infinitely more so if our vlf'orts he continuous, determined, ami of such a nature as to commend themselves to the minds of our fellow-colonists throughout New Zealand.—-I am, faithfully yours, J.
