Mayoral Election* TO THE BURGESSES OF THE BOROUGH OF BLENHEIM. ~r ADIES AND GENTLEMEN iI J —lt has been represented to me that a strong feeling, of dissatisf c'ion cx : sts wi'h res: ect to the i two candidates sodci ing < lec ion for the Mayoralty. Jt is objected to Mr Henderson that two years are long enough for anyone to occupy the office of Mayor ; and to Mr Dous'.in, that he is a v. ry unsuitable pers ,n, owing to his not having any idea of economy in d-alirg witn the ratepayers’ money, and his being given to extravagant and wild schemes. > In consequence, a large number of electors have (to use a stereotyped phrase, though in this case a true one) asked me to stand for the office, believing that I shall do my best as Chairman of the Council to conduct it with economy and fairness. Electors.—l respectfully solicit j your support for this honourable office ; but, I must inform yon (on principal) I shall not canvass or ASK for promises as I have always thought, and do so now, that it is unfair and insulting to an elector, as he is quite able, I take it, to exercise his judgment on the merits of the candidates. Yours faithfully GEO. W. RILEY. 1021
