D. ORMOND. TO THE ELECTORS OF NAPIER, ENTLEMEN,—An opportunity ia now at hand \JC when something must be done to secure 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 support prevented the Engineer for the Oamaru Breakwater being sent for to report on the 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 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 purposes, but also to promote tho settlement of the people and the extension of agriculture. After mature consideration I regret that I can see no basis for united action with Mr Ormond, except by the continued sacrifice of the interests of Napier. Should you do me the honor of electing me, I shall endeavor to obtain an endowment for the Napier Breakwater, and thus prevent a repetition of that Kidnapoer scare by which your intereetß were So seriously imperilled. I have the honor to bo, gentlemen, Your obedient servant, JUSTIN M-SWEENEY. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE BOROUGH OF NAPIER. /""I ENTLEMEN—Statements having been made to me that uncertainty exists whether in the coming contest your representation in the General Assembly I shall really appear as a Candidate for your suffrages, I tafce this early opportunity of removing doubt on the point by plainly saying it ia my intention ono again to Eeek your votes, with political views that have undergone no material chonge since I last solicited your confidence. Recent political events must, I think, have served to point 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 may on minor matters. Your very obedient servant, JOHN BUCHANAN. TO THE ELECTORS OF HA WEE'S BAY. f*i ENTLEMEN.—I have the honor to inform you that I shall be a Candidate for the representation of your District at the coming election. Faithfully yours, W. R. RUSSELL. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE EAST COAST ELECTORAL DISTRICT.
