TO THE ELECTORS OF THE PROVINCE OF NELSON, GENTLEMEN,— It is my intention to become a candidate for the Superintendentship of the Province at the approaching vacancy. lam encouraged to take this step, not only from general considerations of the very large support accorded to me at the last general election for that office, but by the direct invitation of a large body of my then friends and supporters, as well as by numerous requests on the part of those who did not on that occasion give me their support. Having so recently given ray views on those questions of provincial interest on which it is necessary that a candidate should declare himself, I do not now feel myself called on to repeat them. The only important question of this character which has since arisen, is that of the railway from Nelson to the West Coast; and here I will merely say that no efforts of mine shall ever be wanting to the furtherance of a measure tending so incalculably in every way to the development of the various resources of the province and the increase of its prosperity. Awaiting those opportunities that will soon occur for the fuller expression of my views. I have the honor to be, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, 1624 J. W. BARNICOAT.
