VOTE EARLY FOR FITZGERALD 1 SECURE HIS RETURN. (Inserted by well-wishers) GENERAL ELECTIONS. 1908. TO THE ELECTORS OF WELLINGTON SOUTH. T ADIES AND GENTLEMEN,—^ I hereby tender heart-felt thanks to all those who so loyally supported me O3i Tuesday. Every elector who studies her or his welfare, must recognise that legislation enacted by the Liberal party has afforded improved conditions of existence to many thousands of the community. No such widely beneficent and humane legislation stands to the credit of those now represented by the Opposition. The supporters of the latter party, who avow that they would, if they had the power, block the wheels of Government prcgress, are not friends of the workers nor of those most in need of help in the battle of life. During the six years that I have had the honour of being a Parliamentary representative my support of the Government has ever been applied to securing increased benefits for the people. Scrutiny of my actions in the House will prove that absolutely, and prove also that my efforts in that direction were highly successful. Ladies and Gentlemen, I appeal to you to be not affected by unsound reasoning of those against me; but to confirm your faith in a political policy that has conferred wide benefits on the people as a whole, by again placing me at the head of the poll on the occasion of the. second ballot on Tuesday next. I STRONGLY URGE ALL MY FEIENDS NOT TO FAIL TO RECORD THEIR VOTES. I have the honour to be, Ladies and Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, W. H. P. BARBER. RDS ROVER, Clio, and Lady Botty will bo pleased to sco you at tho Hutt Rote Show To-morrow Aftornoon, kt 3,
