TO THE ELECTORS OF WAIRARAPA I SOUTH. /"I ENTLEMEN,— The Wairarapa being VJT divided iato two Electoral Districts, I beg to offer myself as a candidate to represent the Southern Division in tho next Parliament. Having represented the Electors of the Wairarapa in five successive Parliaments, I, with confidence, asrain ask you to elect me. As Boon aa tho Writs are out, I Bhall invite you to meet me in the several centres of population. I am, Yonr obedient servant. HENRY BUNNY. TO THE ELECTORS OF WAIRARAPA SOUTH. GENTLEMEN— In accordance with my already published intention, I now beg to offer myself as a candidate for the representation of your district at the coming general ©lection. I cannot but regret the recent division of tho old electorates, and in this expression I feol satisfied publio sympathy goes with me — not only in thia, but in the majority of other diatricta of tho oolony. Union, and not dissension, Bhould bo the watchword of all the sections of such a district as this, aB well aa of all its settlers, whether living in town or country. } Tho widespread feeling which has recently arisen that if we are to prosper as a colony we must unite in developing the many natural resources which lie in abnndanoe around us, has found its expression in the prominence attained by the looal government and other similar questions during laat session of Parliament. Since becoming a settler amongst you, any services I may hay been able to render in this direotion hay arrays met with the most generous reoogmtifct and can only assure you that if elected, no effort on my part will be Bpared in assisting to place these all-important questions upon a satisfactory footing. The Nativo question requires more than passing notice. It is intolerable that the colony should be called upon to maintain a standing army at suoh a ruinous expenditure, and Te Whiti shonld be sternly told (in deeds, and not in words), that his latest departure is in reality his last. Upon the other various questiona whioh will engage the attention of eleotora, I shall bo happy to explain my views at the several centres of population iv the eleotorate. While freely acknowledging the important services rendered by the Hall Government at a critical period of the colony's history, I shall decline to pledge myself to any party, but will give my support in the direotion best calculated to develope tho material interests of the conntry generally. I remain, Yonra faithfully, W. C. BUCHANAN. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE FOXTON DISTRICT. fi ENTLEMEN,— Iu compliance with tho request of a large number among you, I beg to annonnco that I am again a candidate for your votes. I entertain tho same opinion as on the last occasion, when I received from you bo mnoh support. I propose to visit personally every part of the district. CHARLES B. IZARD. 26th September, 1881. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE FOXTON DISTRICT. i^ ENTLEMEN.— Some years ago I had vX the honor to contest the Manawatu aeat with the present Postmaster-General, and, although defeated, I obtained a substantial majority of votes in the settlements now included within the new Electoral District of Foxton. On thanking my Bupporters for this expression of confidence, T promised to offer myself again on some future occasion. The approaching General Eleotion affords me that opportunity, and I have now to annou ace myself a candidate for the honor of representing your district in the new Parliament. It is my intention, before the election, to visit the various oentres of population for the purpose of explaining to you fully my views on the leading questiona of the day ; and, in the event of my being returned, it will be my earnest aim at all times to prove myself deserving of tho confidence and Bupport which I now solicit.
