TO THE ELECTORS OP KAIAPOL ENTLEMEN,—Finding it to be the wieh of many amongst you that I should represent the district of Kaiapoi in the General Assembly, I offer my services. Aβ in the coming Session many very important questions are expected to arise, it is highly necessaiy that Canterbury should be represented by men who feel a deep interest in her prosperity. In this address I will mainly touch upon Separation and Provincial institutions as being the most important topics likely to come under discussion in the Assembly. With regard to Separation, I look upon it as a last resource, and rather than sever the connection between the two Islands would be prepared to make some sacrifices ; yet I am not one of those who for the sake of an idea, however grand, would be inclined to sacrifice our material interests. I consider Separation as an alternative preferable only to having the revenues of this Island spent on Maori ware or other Northern purposes. In my opmion, Maori disturbances ought to be regarded as matters of police, and the cost of their suppression borne by the dietricte in which they occur. Provincial institutions in Canterbury at least have on the whole worked well, and judging from past experience I am confident that had our affairs been under the control of a central Government they would have been managed neither so economically or efficiently. I dont hold that the present form of responsible Government in the province id the best that could be devised, and would support any wellconsidered plan for rendering the Provincial '< machinery less cumbersome and expensive. In any change the control of our local affaire must be retained, and above all our land fund must be kept intact. The greatest caution ought to be exercised by the Assembly before giving their consent to Provincial loans. No loan ought to be authorised except for works of primary necessity, and where at the same time the ability of the province to meet the interest and repayment was beyond all doubt. I shall advocate the strictest economy, and a reduotion of taxation wherever practicable. On all occasions my vote will be given in the way I consider best for the interests of Canterbury and the colony at large. I have the honor to be, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, JOSS SXUDEOIMB. Ghriitchuroh, May 18. 5-20
