TO THE ELECTORS OF THE TE AEO DISTRICT. f* EN TLEMEN— The Representation Act \JT haTing- constituted Te Aro a separate electorate. I have the honour to offer myself as a candidate for that District. My views upon some of the mo3t important questions are aa follows :—: — I should oppose any legislation having for itß object the separation of the colony by giving separate Legislatures to the North and tonth Islands, and any attempt to 1 evert to the Provincial system. At the same time, I think that the powers of County Councils should be increased. I am opposed to further taxation, because I think that by retrenchment the revenues of the colony will pay the interest upon loans and provide for carrying on the Government. If further taxation becomeß n"CCEsary, I shonld support the Property Tax, exempting machinery and agricultural implements in use, and the present exemption of £500, and an Income Tax on incomes above a reasonable amount. These taxes should be so arranged as to ensure the burden being borne by all of us proportionally to our means. I am in favor of Free State Education, but nnder the present financial difficnltica of the colony the expenditure is more than we can afford. This should for a time be reduced consistently with not destroying the system itself. When the finances of the colony are again satisfactory I should suppoit an increased sum being placed on the Estimates. I should support any measure having for its object the introduction into tho colony of small capitalist farmers, and their occupation upon favorable terms of the waste lands of the colony, and every measure which will enable persons to become bond fide settlers of small blocks of land on reasonable terms. lam in favor of taxing native land 3. The colony incurs a largo expenditure, specially applicable to natives and native land, and 1 think they and their lands ought to bear a portion of the taxation I am a strong advocate for local industries such as the proposed woollen factory. Kvery effort must be mado to keep within the colony the industrial population, which, unlor unately, has been tor some time past leaving us. I think that by economy, by encouraging and promoting local industries, and by the development of the resources of the colony, we shall soon overcome our difficulties. Local industries cannot grow up or our resources be developed without both capital and labour, and care must be taken that both are encouraged. I should strive to obtain for this city and the adjoining districts a larger share of publio money than they have received in the past. I consider the completion of the West Coast Railway an essential to the welfare of this city, and would do my utmost to further any legislation to that end, as also to obtain for the Harbour Board endowments. There are other subjects of importance requiring legislation, which I will refer to j when I address you personally. If elected, I shail endeavour to do my duty as your representative. I have no grievances to redress and no personal end to serve. I will address you personally afc an early date. I have the honour to be, Gentlomfn, Your obedient servant, E. STAFFORD. SOUTH WELLINGTON ELECTORATE. f^i ENTLEMEN— The division of the city \JT into separate electorates has compelled me to make a choice between the East and Wr at sides of Tory-street.
