Election Addresses. TO THE ELECTOBS OE NAPIEB, GENTLEMEN,— An opportunity Is now at hand when something must be-done to the , stability and increase the prosperity of Napier, and as at a meeting of the Harbor Board the casting vote- . of the gentleman who has already solicited your sup- ' port prevented the Engineer for the Oamaru Breakwater being sent for to report on tho feasibility of , constructing a Breakwater at the Bluff, 1 am impressed with the conviction that the wellfare of . Napier would not be promoted by his election to ; Parliament, and therefore, as a resident of the i town, I respectfully offer myself as a candidate for your suffrages. . ~ , I advocate a property and (income tax, and also a graduated tax on land not only for revenue pur- " poses, but also to promote the settlement of the people and the extension of agriculture. After mature | consideration I regret that I can see no basis for 1 united action with Mr Ormond. except by the continued sacrifice of the interests of Napier. Should you do mo the honor of electing me, I shall endeavor to obtain an endowment for the Napier Breakwater, and thus prevent a repetition of that Kidnapner scare by which your interests were So Beriously imperilled. "■••* I have the honor to be, gentlemen, Your obedient servant, JUSTIN M-SWEENEY. HAWKE'S BAY DISTBICT. ' TMMEDIATELY after the issue of the Writs I shall ask the Electors to meet me in publio at Clive, Hastings, *Taradalo, Puketapu, Havelock, and Petane; and at any other place that may suit public convenience. Dates of meetings will be notified in due course. F. SUTTON. 10th Ootober, 1881. TO THE ELECTOBS OE THE EAST COAST ELECTOBAL DISTBICT.

Napier, 20th August, 1881. TO THE ELECTOBS OE WAIPAWA. fi ENTLEMEN— As it is now certain that your district will be entitled to return a member for the House of Representatives at the coming election, I have the honor to state that it is my Intention to ' ■ offer myself as a Candidate. As soon as the writs are issued, I shall hold meetings in all parts of your County, and explain fully to you my opinions on the various political questions of the day. I remain, Your obedient servant, SYDNEY JOHNSTON. TO THE ELECTOBS OE THE ; BOBOUGH OE NAPIEB. • f*i ENTLEMEN—Statements -having been made to me that uncertainty exists whether in the coming contest for your representation in the General Assembly I shaU really appear as a Candidate for your suffrages, I take this early opportunity of , removing doubt on the point by plainly Baying it is my intention onca again to seek your votes, with political" views that have undergone no ■ material change since I last solicited your confidence, Recent political events must, I think, have'served to point 1 unmistakably to the necessity in 'this community of some base for united and concerted action being taken by its members' on 'leading questions, That necessity is one that I hold to be of piimary importance—let the shade of individual opinions differ as it mayon minor matters. ~ , ..... .„, Your very obedient servant, • "■'■■'■■'■■ ;; JOHN BUCHANAN.
