TO H. P. STARK, M.H.R., CAPTAIN MUNN,- MB. W. W. YATES, AND THE GENTLEMEN SIGNING THE REQUISITION. n ENTLEMDN,— Being placed in the difficult position UT of being called upon to represent two constituencies, " I must offer some explanation of my choice; and, at the same time, express my sincere thanks to the Napier" electors who signed the requisition asking me to contest the Town. I cannot but feel that there is a greater fitness in the Town being represented by a Townsman. Again, the recent conduct of the member for the Country Districts in the Council has confirmed my selection. I do not oppose a member of the Executive from feelings averse to the present Government, but simply because Mr. Alexander does not possess the confidence of our ' constituency j and as they call upon me to come forward, I feel bound to cast in my lot with theirs. In declining, therefore, your good intentions towards me, I trust that you will afford that support to Mr. Newton entire, which you would, have rendered to me. I have the honor to remain, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, G. WORGAN. Waipuna, April 17, 1861. ,^ To the Electors of the Napier Country District. T)ROTHER-83GTTLERS,—I should pay but an ill-com--D pliment to your good Sense, intelligence, and independent spirit if I did not believe that the course pursued by our late Provincial Government had inspired you with- disgust and indignation. Such mean pettyfogging and quibbling •as that displayed by the late governing powers in the Council, I would fain hope is without a parallel : you read our only journal and must therefore be fully alive to my meaning. Surely you will no longer trust such parties to misrepresent you. An opportunity is now afforded of infusing new blood into the Council; I therefore come forward to offer you my services. I am. well-known to you as an old working settler — one who has stood forward from time to time to defend what I believed to he true principles, both in speech and with my pen. Should you honor me with your confidence, I think I may humbly venture to hope that hereafter you will congratulate yourselves on having chosen a man able and willing to contend for your just rights, and whose conduct shall reflect some little credit on the constituency represented. I would support the Government in all honest policy, and would vigorously oppose them upon the first appearance of a one-sided, selfish course. I pledge myself to institute a rigid enquiry into the old accounts of the late Government which present some discrepancies of a startling nature. One act of our new Superintendent I much regret, inasmuch as I have conceived a good opinion of the gentleman selected, hut grieve that he should have been induced to sanction the double appointment of Treasurer and Auditor— a most preposterous and dangerous precedent, amounting in fact, to the absurdity of taking a man's audit of. his own-accounts. Of the latest appointments of the retired Superintendent, I will now say nothing: doubtless you will have formed your own opinions upon them. ' '-JZi. I consider the situation of the Province is most critical, requiring that the men entrusted with your interests should be clear-headed and fearless, with the requisite ability to give public expression to their views and opinions. I have the honor to remain, Gentlemen and Brother-Electors, Your faithful Servant, GEORGE WORGAN.
