LADIES AND GENTLEMEN— There are a few considerations which ought to be brought under your notice at this juncture in view of the close proximity of the FINAL BALLOT for your Representative in tho Parliament of' this Dominion. I am persuaded to bring these things under your notice in view of the great interest you have displayed in my candidature. On Tuesday last at the first ballot you gave a very emphatic vote in my favour. In expressing my sincere appreciation of your confidence on this occasion I can only assure you of my genuine desire to conserve your every interest in our Halls of Legislature. This result will be aohieved if you exercise your Franchise TO-MORROW as on the first occasion. " I ask you only to remember this one thing: that my success in this election depends upon the undivided discharge of your duty and privilege at the ballot-box. Let every voter who believes in my integrity of purpose, honesty of life, and puriiy of motive, vote in my favour. Let those who do not believe in me exercise their vote against me. I ask no man's confidence who believes me to be either dishonest, a political adventurer, or a time-server. I am out on straight lines, and will deviate from my deep-set convictions for no man. Ladies and Gentlemen, I am not a young New Zealander, but I am a Colonist whose life and toil have been used in helping to build up the industrial interest of this Dominion. Should you deserve any other proof of merits I can claim I refer you to the years of active service in your interests in municipal affairs. It is not for me nor do I desire to indulge in self-praise, but can any citizen point to a single act of mine that has not been executed in the best interests of the publio and consistent with the life that should characterise men seeking to serve you in public affairs? Let your confidence in me be emphasised at tho ballot-box TO-MORROW, and if, after your returning" me to Parliament I can bo proved to have failed in my charge, then let me be acclaimed unworthy but only then. JOHN P. LUKE. WELLINGTON SUBURBS. mO THE ELECTORS— The time for exercising the Franchise at the Second Ballot is at band,, and I have found it impossible to visit and. speak in every portion of the district.
