If you <lome the honour to elect me as your representative, I intend to take up my residence at Annandale, and, as a friend and neighbour, I shall do my best to promote your local interests, and in your House of Representatives I shall also, to the best of my ability, advocate and support the policy ar >d principles which I have laid down in this address. I have the honour to remain, Gentlemen, Yours most sincerely, WM. S. ALLEN, j Woodhead Hall, Cheadle, Staffordshire, June Gth, 1890. Mr Allen is now on his way out to New Zealand, and will arrive in time to address meetings of the electors >at the different centres. Times and dates of such meetings will be duly announced. HENRY BUTTLE, Acting Agent. rpo THE ELECTORS OF WAII KATO. Gentlemen,— In the address recently published by me, I endeavoured to set forth in a strong light the unfortunate condition of the House of Representatives as a legislative machine, and suggested the necessity for amendment. I attempted also to show the financial position of the colony in a way which I hoped would render it easily understood, and I deliberately confined my observations within the limits of these two subjects.

It is my intention shortly to visit the Waikato, and I hope to be able to discuss with you on the public platform other important political matters. The importance is undeniable of such sub jects as the 11 Incidence of Taxation, the "Settlement of the Land," the "Management of the Railways," " Economy of Government," 11 National Education, and "Social Organisations," including trade unions and labour strikes. But the whole of these subjects, with the exception perhaps of the last, are absolutely dependent on the character and capacity of the legislature, and on the financial condition of the colony. I wish respectfully to say now that while I intend, before the election, to address you on various public matters, I feel that the chauce of our arriving at a good understanding and just conclusions will depend very much on the degree in which you appreciate and realize the position of the two great subjects which I have already had the honor to place pointedly before you. A few months ago I had the privilege of telling the electors of Waipa that I | knew of no better way of repaying them for the handsome manner in which they treated ine than by doing my part towards creating a wholesome public opinion. That was my belief then, and to give effect to it is my principle object now, I am well aware however that there may te truth in the proverb which implies that good intentions do not always pave the right place, but if I Bucoeed iu doing my duty to you in the matter the responsibility as to results will rest lightly on me. I am, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, JOHN BRYCE. TO ADVERTISERS.
