ELECTION QUESTIONS. A number of people at the present moment, both in and out of Napier, aro busy preparing- foi; the coming Election. NEAL & CLOSE, DRAPERS AND OUTFITTERS, Have provided a large Stock of strongTweed Suits, New Huts and Boots, suitable for Electors of any Constituency, and invite them to inspect the same, so as to be prepared for the Election rush with a few practical and sound suggestions for the Candidates. NEAL & CLOSE, IMPORTERS, Arc Ratisficd of tlic fact that New Zealand has had too much govermment, from years ago to the present day. NEAL&CLOSE, OUTFITTERS, Have observed the increased extravagant expenditure which has gone on growing heavier and heavier, year by year, until it has exceeded the revenue, and burdened the colony with a largo deficit. True, it certainly is, that NEAL & CLOSE, DIRECT IMPORTERS, Aro desirous of clearing their present Winter Stock of Blankets, Rugs, Carpets, Mattings, Linoleums, and Oilcloths, made from the most serviceable materials, which will bo wold at the lowest possible prices consistent with first oiuss quality. This may seem a small thing, but NEAL & CLOSE, DRAPERS, Are compelled to meet the pressure of the day, and recommend Electors to consider the present unhappy condition of Trade, the country, and its future prospects, and to employ the power they have to elect members for Parliameat who will pledge themselves for retrenchment, and who will boldly break up the present routine of extravagant administration. If the country is to progress no doubt a great deal of economy must be practised in matters of expenditure, which do not strictly come under the head of necessaries, wliilo everyone must acknowledge that the Government machinery requires remodelling. Therefore NEAL &■ CLOSE, DRAPERS AND OUTFITTERS, Trust that some candidate will guarantee, if elected, that at once the following suggestions shall become a reality, viz.: That the Governor's salary and allowance be reduced one-half; Ministers' salaries and allowances be reduced one-half ; Members of the House of Representatives reduced to Fifty ; Members' honorarium be Fifty Pounds ; Members' railway free passes abolished; Members' pleasure-yacht Hinempa sold; military fads limited; Civil Service reorganised; Official Fossils dispensed with ; railway reforms granted ; public works made remunerative ; land for the people ! Support Froetrade and a reduction of Taxation ! The above questions can only be touched by legislation, and members of Parliament are certain not to move in them until the electors put pressure on them. Therefore, Electors, remember that now is the time! Take advantage of the coming Election ! NEAL & CLOSE, OUTFITTERS, Have reason to believe that Candidates who may offer themselves at the coming contost, and who agree to carry into effect the above suggestions, will meet with generous support, as sound principles and good honest value are able to hold their own, and are always attractive to the public; a fact which is fully demonstrated by the popularity of NEAL & CLOSE'S UNIVERSAL DRAPERS AND OUTFITTERS' ESTABLISHMENT, Which provides the best quality and variety of Goods, and offers special advantages to Candidates and Electors, who are cordially invited to inspect the Extensive Stock and Premises.
