Gentlemen,—l beg to announco myself as a Candidate for Re-election. JOS. A. TOLE. Wellington, August 7th, 1879. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE DISTRICT OF EDEN. Gentlemen,—l have the honour to Inform you that I solicit your suffrages to return mo as your representative iv tho noxt Parliament. Having residod amongat you from tho foundation of Auckland, and having during a oonsiderablo portion of the time takon an active part in politics, I fcol it unnecessary to say much on the aulyoct of my political viows, bu there are two leading quostions now occupy ing much attention, on which I shall say a few words. For upwards of twonty yoars I have been an advocate for reform in our Representative system, and upwards of two years ago, I put my proposals on tho subject into the definite form of an Electoral Bill, which I introduced into the House of Representatives. My proposals included an extension of tho franchise to every man who has rosided in any Electoral district for six months, a readjustment of the Electoral Districts, a much improved system of Registration, and a special Maori Representation' in proportion to numbers as compared with the European Electors, but not giving the Maori double the voting power of tho Europoan?, as was proposed by the Government Bill on the subject. On the all important and engrossing subject ot the education of tho people, my principles ore represented by the Eduoation Aot now in operation, which I asserted to prepare and got passed by the Legislature. I will not say that it is incapable of any improvement, but I do most earnestly hope that tho vigorous efforts which will bo made to destroy its destructive features—Free and Secular Education—will not bo successful. There is danger from two powerful but antagonistic parties—those who advocate a Denominational System, and those who desire to introduce a religious element— they will combine in their efforts to destroy the present system, and are therefore dangerous opponents. It appears to me that the Act is working so well at present that until we have further experience I deprecate any material alteration, and shall decidedly oppose every proposition, which leads, however insidiously, ; towards its destruction. I invito tho Electors to meot me at the New- . market Hall on WEDNESDAY next, at halfpast seven p.m.; and on MONDAY I shall ad- , vertise Fixtures for Panmure, Eden Terrace, and the Whau. At all these places I shalllbe prepared to afford tho Electors any further information |they may require on tho subjects I have mentioned, and to give explanations on any other subjeot on which thoy may desire to I hear my opinions. I reman, Gentlemen,
