TO THE ELECTORS OF THE HUTT ELECTORAL DISTRICT. f] ENTLEMEN— I have the honor to state \JT that I intend offering myself as a candidate for the Representation of the Hutt Electoral District, which is now rendered vacant in the Parliament by the elevation of Sir William Fitzherbert, K.C.M.G., to the Speakersbip of the Legislative Council. In thus soliciting your suffrages, I am not unmindful tbat f have hitherto been necessarily debarred from actively taking'part in politics, but I am induced to hope that my continual residence of 17 years in this district, and my career during tbat period as a public servant of the Province, will in some defjree compensate for this want of active political experience; and I beg leave to assure you that, it I am so fortunate as to be returned by you to fill the seat in Parliament now at your disposal, my whole time and services shall be devoted to the observance and performance of the duties of the office. I am in favor of any policy that will cause wealth to bear its fair share of the cost of Government ; and to this end lam of opinion that a property and income tax — exempting incomes falling below a certain amount — is the only measure which can succeed in making 1 the incidence of taxation fall fairly upon the classes of the community; and that therefore such a tax ought to replace the Custom duties which are at present imposed on the necessaries of life. This measure, I believe, would relieve the less wealthy classes of the country from a burden which undoubtedly at present falls disproportionately greatest upon them. The unfinished condition of the public works, especially of those in progress in the North Island, renders it, in my opinion, a matter of urgent necessity that further loans should be at once negotiated in the London money market. I shall support measures to this effect. I look upon the connection by railway between the West Coast and this important district as a matter requiring further serious consideration, more especially as the fact is patent that a practical road is already nearly formed throu gh the intended route. At the same time I cannot refrain from remarking that I believe that if the North Island had received its lair share of former loans, if, in point of fact, the railways and trunk roads of this Island had been pushed on with the vigor and corresponding amount of expenditure which has been the case for those of the South Island, the present threatening aspect in native affairs would in all probability have been obviated. For I consider the true settlement of the native difficulty in this island to be in the completion of the public works; and I will therefore endeavor to secure for these works as large a share as possible of future loans. I am also in favor of retrenchments, as far as is compatible with efficiency, in all the branches of administrative departments; the expenditure in pome of these I believe to have grown in late years beyond any necessity. I shall also be a sedulous advocate for the strictest economy being observed in all other Government expenditures. The above are broadly the principal political views that I entertain; but I will take an early opportunity of meeting you in public, and then further explainiLg my views on other less important subjects which are likely to engage attention in the coming session of Parliament. I have the honor to be, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, HENRY JACKSON. The Hutt, 14th June, 1879. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE HUTT. n\ ENTLEMEN— In compliance with the \JC wishes of my friends, I beg to offer myself as a candidate for the vacant seat in Parliament as your representative. Believing that the prosecution of the Public Works with vigor is essential to the progress of the colony, I would urge the necessity of obtaining a loan for that purpose; and as the settlement of the Crown Lands more rapidly is also requisite the facilities for its occupation on deferred payments should be increased. The Native question requires careful consideration with a view to a permanent solution of the difficulty. With regard to the incidence of taxation, land, as well as other property, should bear a fair portion of the burden. On these and other subjects I hope to be able to address you more fully at an early date. Yours faithfully, ! THOMAS MASON. 16th June, 1879 ENGLISH HIGH SCHOOL. THE REV.
