Electoral. rpO THE ELECTORS OF THE DISTRICT OF WAITEMATA. Gentlemen, —The return of Mr. Von derHejde having been declared void, I have the honor again to offer myself as a candidate to represent your district in the General Assembly. ' Having been told that my p.ction in the matter of the petition which resulted in the unseating of Mr. Von der Heyde, is disapproved of by some of your number, I take this opportunity of assuring you that ! I believed it was my duty to follow the course of proceeding which I did, even if only in consideration for those electors >vho had exerted themselves on my behalf; and although I consider that personation I and such like disreputable practices are too fre- | quently resorted to at elections, and are most repre- I hensible, I hold it to be perfectly correct to use all fair and legitimate means to defeat an opponent. I have the honor to be, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, J. S. MACFARLANE. rpO THE ELECTORS OF THE DISTRICT OF WAITEMATA.
