WAIMEA COUNTY COUNCIL ELECTIONS. To the Ratepayers of Motupiko Riding Ladies and (lontlemen,—- j As you know, personal canvassing for votes on the score of friendship or in consideration of '‘lovo; and affection” is now discarded, as ••out of date” and contrary to the true standard of propriety—tends to destroy the secrecy of the ballot box, and derogatory to merit and efficiency. Therefore one appreciates the platform and the press to ventilate his views and solicit your help to reform the Council on sound progressive business lines.

If elected, duty will compel me to speak frankly and net promptly—and '‘leave no stone unturned” to improve matters of which many of yon have been so long and so justly complaining re roads and rates : to'insist upon better business methods so that future balance sheets may not appear ridiculous—,€39Bo 16s 9d, nearly one*third of the total rates levied 1919, outstanding, overdue and unpaid at iho end of the financial year March Si st. 1920. Ditto March 31st, 1919, €41 v 4B). No effort will bo wanting on my part to improve the financing so that it may not be necessary to stop »I! team work on the. roads before half the financial year has elapsed, been use the overdraft is up to the limit allowed by law ; to insist noon a fair proportion" of the rates collected in the Hiding being carefully expended on the roads for back-block settlers —the small amount spent on byroads (including money wasted) in Motupiko Hiding last year being only €143 out of €2167 received, can only lie regarded as unfair and unsatisfac*torv.

I further promise to do all fn my power to stop waste of ratepayers’ money on “white elephants,” “stillhorn” by-laws, and kindred bad management, resulting in ever-inereasing rates and liabilities. I offer yon my services, Ladies and Gentlemen, trusting the result, if elected, will justify your confidence. Yours respectfully, H. 0. BERRYMAN.
