By a requisition singed by two hundred of the electors we have induced one of the most able and experiencrd politicians in New Zealand to oiler himself as our representative — one who has been charged with being so clever that he has succeeded in getting a great share of the public works expenditure for the district he last represented — one who has succeeded in placing on the Statute Book of New Zealand a. number,. and all the Bills he has introduced during his seven years membership. Now, this is the stamp of a man. we want. We have an accumulation of grievances. We want the. railway ; we want a great many other public works attended to. Then, I say, let the most intelligent of all classes to-day, and for all time, obliterate the class and creed lines which have hitherto been the curse of: this district, and let us unite and return a man who is liberal and free from these party taints — who has the ability and experience ta honorably and effectually represent us in the legislature of the Colony. — lam, &c, Cosmopolite. Eeefton, May 14th, 1883.
