ENTLEMEN,—At the request of a large number of my fellow settlers, I have consented to stand for the district. I feel honored by ths distinction of being asked to represent the district which I have lived in for seventeen years, and have seen to improved by settlement as to be one ot the best in the colony. I need hardly say that If returned I shall do my utmost for the electorate. While feeling that I should be greatly honored by being returned, I yet consider that Electors are under an obligation to a Member, if he does his duty, tor the time, trouble, and expanse he is put to on their behalf, I regret that I cannot spare time at this busy season ot the year to canvass, nor am I so wealthy as to be able to spend money over the election,

I will at the larger centres ot population address the Electors and give suob informstion as to my political opinions as may be necessary, which, combined with a knowledge ot me that a great many of my fellow, eettlers have, should be amply sufficient to satisfy Electors in voting, I should, if returned, expect to exercise entire independence in my actions in Parliament, using my judgment to vote as I think right and best suited for the constituency. I am a believer in the present Government, with Sir Harry Atkinson as Premier, though. I should not be a blind supporter. I think the late addition to the Ministry and the new distribution of seats likely to strengthen the present Government; and I consider their steady conduct in the affaira of the country, particularly with regard to retrenchment, h»« materially resuscitated the credit of the colony. I am very much opposed te further borrowing. Thia country, I believe, is now recovering from the long depression, and only wants a Continuation of the present careful management, and rest from experimental polities, to make great progress, not perhaps by leaps and bounds as formerly, but surely, steadily, and on a firmer and more lasting basis, I should vote for reduction in taxation directly it is possible, I believe in every facility being given for men of small means to acquire land, and that land for snob purposes should be opened for selection wherever suitable.

In Native land matters, after considerable experience, I believe in absolute free trade, removing all possible restrictions,

I am a strong advocate of free education, but consider that under present circumstances the cost is greater than we can afford. From my long residence here, I knew the district intimately, and our wants and interests ate identical, I fear that | sm wanting in powers of oratorytqdoiuU justica to the constituency in Rariiamsnt. bnt whatever ability I may possess I should use it to the utmost of my powsf bett.es government of the CJbutry and '.hescaefli of the district, | At 0, ABTMUB.iI
