"MONDAY'S CALL."
♦ "Send Edward Wakofield back t.» Timaru ! " That's just exactly what wo mean to do, With all the strength and unity we can We'll send him back, a proud, triumphant man. If truth and honesty can nu^lit achieve Wakefield must be our representative ; But if corruption, dodgery, foul play, And deeds that will not bear the light of day — If these must triumph — must rule rampant here, Then, the result, all upright men must fear. Miners, electors of Inangahua ISew Zealand's eyes to-day, are fixed on you ; Your country asks you with beseeching voice . To make a worthy, and a prudent choice ; Let conscience guide you, and lot judgment sway Wakefield and justice then, must gain the day. But if you're gulled by promises of Straw Go straight ahead, and vote for "Meester Hkcao. How men of Reefton, Boatmans, Murray Creek, Black's Point and _ Cnjshington, your votes we seek, Come one, come all, from regions most remote, From No Town, Nelson Creek— we want your vote. Ahaura, Granville, Half-ounce, and Moonlight The poll will close at six o'clock to-night Wakefield's the best, the fittest man, for he la not the "Squatters favored nominee" He will not " tax your gold, instead of wool," "Whoever fancies that is but a fool. He will protect your interests to the end, And never cease to be the Miner's Friend. Vote for him then, brave miners, ev'ry one And send • ' Ned Shaw " back home to Wellington.
