Gkijtlemen,—l have the honour to sccept your requisition, inviting me to become a Candidate for the Representation of the District of Eden in the General | Assembly. I I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, | Your most obedient Servant, i HUGH CAPXETON". Auckland, December 16,1573. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE DISTRICT OF EDEN. | Gentlemen", —I bave accepted a requisition to come forward as a Candidate to Represent you in the ! Assembly. I My Political views are so well known that very few ! words may suflico. You are aware of them from my votes in the House, for a period of seventeen yeara, and from my frequent correspondence with the Public Press. In the last Session of Parliament, much was abol- ! ished, seemingly in accordance with the wishes of the people. A harder task is now before us,— that of construction. Toward this, I offer all that T can lay claim to ; experience in legislation. It is the hope of ; being useful that brings me out. If elected, I should strive to extend Local Govern- ■ ment to the utmost. | I desire to strengthen the Upper House by election, ; under such regulations as woald ensure that end. j I am desirous to promote tbe harmonious action of tlie Northern Representatives ; an object to be attained by fair give and (Ake on all sides. In thi£ X should not be found -wanting. It is my belief that a great reduction of public er_ penditure might be effected if the task be undertaken by the House irrespectively of party.. I have liWe hope from any Government whatever. I should.be found ready to net, as I always hare been, in the exposure of every abuse without regard to persons. I am In favour of reducing the members* " horcrarium" to payment of actual expenses. I am opposed to the borrowing policy, but admit that works undertaken have to be completed. The practical consideration now is, how to stavs'cf heavy taiation, for payment of interest on the delt If taxation be unavoidable, I should vot*> for such is would press least upon the necessaries of life. I am of opinion that the interest of the debt ougU to be made a first charge upon the Land Fund of tlo whole Colony ; and have no party ties to hinder »e from an outspoken exprenton of that opinion. I am of opinion that the two Islands ought to'le equally represented in the Assembly ; and that fftilfogr this, other means should bo sought towards neuthlizing political predominance. I shall take an early opportunity, if permitted; >f meeting the electors. I am, Gentlemen, 1 Yours obediently, HUGH CARLETON. rjio THE ELECTORS OF WAITEMAT.V. ('iKNTLEMFK, — Being assured that several of .-'he candidates, desirous of representing your district in Parliament, are m ikijig an active canvass of i't:e electors, anil endeavouring to obtain pieces of El;ir votes, I deem it my duty to intimate to you tliff. I disapprove altogether of trying to influence eleotirs to give any promise whatever, and that I consiler such proceedings to be virtually an improper 1 reference with electors, and calculated to destrojj:Ue usefulness of the vote by ballot, as also being ldiely to lend to the stirring up of animosity be'.fien frirnds. I trust, therefore, that my mode of action may not be misconstrued into indifference to o' Uin tiie support of all doctors who may deem me wi rtliv of tlieir confidence. I have the honor to be, Gentlemen, Your most obedient servant, J. S. MACE ARLA? E. Auckland, lGth December, IS7;">. TO THE ELECTORS OF WAITEiIATA.
