j lyj-AYOEALTY ELECTION. To THE EaTEPATEKS OP THE BOBOUGH op Haweba. Ladies and G-entlemen, — I would respectfully inform you that having been urgently requested by a considerable number of your , body to become a candidate for the office of Mayor oi the new Boxougb. of Hawera, I take this opportunity of announcing to you that I am a candidate for the office of Mayor at the forthcoming election. I do so with confidence, knowing that you are well aware that my interests are equally bound up with your own in the future progress and prosperity of the new Borough. Should you honor me with your confidence on this occasion, I shall end.eavor to serve you in the future as in the past, faithfully and impartially, to trie best of my ability. If returned, I would be in favor of raising a small loan for the purpose of opening up and forming all roads or streets and footpaths within the Borough, and having the centre, at least, of all the streets metalled ; and of the erection of Borough Chambers suitable to the rea^u'zremenba of fcLe Borough. I would be in favor of setting aside all rents derived from reserves, and revenue derived from hotel licenses, for the payment of interest, so foi»ming a sinking fund to pay off our debt, leaving brewers' licenses, dog tax, auctioneers' and hawkers' licenses, with rates and revenue from other sources for the maintenance of streets, footpaths, and general expenditure, taking great care that the same shall be spent to the best advantage for the benefit of the ratepayers generally. | Leaving the details for future con- f sideration, and the result of the election in your hands with confidence, I remain Your obedient servant, 1044 JAMES DAVIDSON. 0 THE RATEPATEES OF THE BOROUGH OF HAWEEA. Ladies and Gentlemen", — I beg to inform you that it is my intention to offer myself as a candidate for the office of Mayor of Hawera, and to solicit your voteis. Should you do me the honor of electing me, I shall devote my best energies to the improvement and advancement of the town by the execution of public works upon a scheme so devised as to do justice to all parts of the Borough. Yours faithfully, F. McGUIEE. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE BOROUGH OF HAWEEA. Gentlemen, — I beg hereby to intimate my intention of coming forward as a candidate for the honor of Mayor of your Borough. I may state that as I have no particular street to form, or personal ends to gratify, my services will be placed untramelled at the services of the electors. To those who have known my conduct in public bodies for the last ten years or so, it is needless for me to say anything, while to those whose acquaintance I nave nob n&a the pleasure of making I can only say that in the future, as in the past, I will do all in my power to forward the interests of our Borough. Borough chambers, improving the town by forming and metalling all necessary streets and drainage, are among the pz*incipal works that will receive my attention. Should the funds at the disposal of the councillors be inadequate to carry out those works, I would be in favor of borrowing, should the ratepayers deem it necessary. The above, gentlemen, are my sentiments, and should you think me worthy of the honor of Mayor, I will do all I can to carry them out. Meanwhile, I have the honor to remain, &c, JOHff WINKS. t7lncoueage haweea in_Cj dustries, And the Experienced Tradesman who lives by his trade.
