Address: Treworder, worth. mo THE ELECTORS OF AUCKLAND ■*• CITY, THE BOROUGn OF NEWTON, AND OTHERS. Ladies and Gentlemen— Since it became known that I was not going to stand for a third term as Mayor of our City, I have received very substantial offers of help and assistance if I would stand as a Candidate for ono of the Seats at your disposal at the coming Election for Members of the House of Representatives. These offers I do now gratefully accept, and do hereby announce that I am a Candidate accord-. ingly. Two years ago, when elected as your Mayor, I promised you that I would discharge the duties impartially, to the best of my ability and judgment. Under some very trying circumstances I have made great efforts to keep my promise. And now I have no hesitation whatever in repeating the promise then made, if you should select me as one of the gentlemen worthy of your trust. I have a very keen and ardent desire that our district and province, its property and its people, should receive at the hands of the General Government justice and our fair share of general revenue. Always keeping this end in view, we should pick : candidates at the coming election who can (on local questions especially) vote together. Although lam now nearly sixty years of ago, I am not yet afraid of a journey or camping out. If I were elected, I .should feel it to be my duty to inspect the railway routes that have so often been discussed, thereby acquiring the necessary knowledge that cannot be gained in any other way—a knowledge that our representatives must have, to enable them to stand firmly together at the right time. Being now out of business, I should have time to devote most of my attention to public matters. I may here say that I have no .sympathy whatever with low wages or small profits. We all know that when wages were good and profits good, that we wore, one and all, more contented, and although perhaps we did not save any more money, we certainly lived a happier life, with less cutting and no strife. Speaking as to my ability for the position comparatively, the Premier, the Hois. Mr. Ward, and a targe number of vory successful politicians have, so to speak, risen from the ranks like myself. Being birds of a feather we cannot help having great sympathy for our feilow workers. I have been an employer of labour for twenty years, and I say, without fear of contradiction, that my men got better wages than any other set of men in New Zealand in the same line of business during the whole of that time. I have been about sixteen years a member of Auckland's City Council. lam now a member of the Sailors' Home Committee, a Governor of Auckland College and Grammar School, a Governor of University "College Council; have been a member and Treasurer of the City Schools Committee for years., have been a member of Hospital and Charitable Aid Board. I am now Chairman of the Harbour Board, in which position, I must say, I have not been always very happy—certainly not on account of the duties to be performed, but lor other reasons that I cannot here explain. Of one tiling, however, lam now well satisfied, and it is this—that, when my term ends, the purpose for which I was elected Chairman will have been accomplished and no harm otherwise done. - I am not aware that during these sixteen years anyone has been unjustly dealt with. That everyone lias not got all they wanted goes without sayins. Prom first to last I have tried to do my duty fairly and equally to one and all. It has ever been my desire to deal with public funds with greater care and attention than I have dealt with my own, and I now dare to infer that if I had not been fairly successful I should not ive retained your confidence all these years, in fact, that I should have been ousted for sonic more capable man. Although the electoral district is very large, I think I am well known in it. I now desire to become better known and trusted in this greater office. If you return me I will serve you faithfully and honestly, always keeping a sharp look-out alter your interests. I respectfully ask you to excuse me for not declaring that I am a New or an Old Liberal, or that I am a Conservative, a Tory, or a Radical. I am just Liberal enough to deal honestly and fairly between man and man, anil to help any man or woman to retain what rightfully belongs to them. lam a. believer in tho graduated tax. I don't think this country is at all ripe yet for a Single Tax. While we have such heavy indebtedness we must have distribution of taxation. We have all been dancers, now let us all help to pay the piper. I am willing to pay my share, and we cannot afford to tax any set of men out of the country—especially seeing that just at this time our Agent-General is trying all ho knows, by reduced fares, etc., to induce others to come into it, and bring plenty of money with them. Surely we are not going to tempt farmers and others to come and spend their money in order that we may tax them away again. I am not a platform orator; if, however, it should become necessary, I shall not shirk the responsibility.—l am, respectfully yours, W. CROWTHER. mO THE ELECTORS OF EDEN. LADIES AND Gentlemen,— I respectfully ask you to disregard all statements to the effect that I will not go to the poll, or that I am likely to retire in favour of Mr. Mitcnelson. I am determined to contest the election, and have every confidence that I shall obtain the support of a largo majority of the electors when I have had the opportunity of submitting my views to their judgment. Thanking you very heartily for the strong encouragement and many offers of assistance I have alreauy received, I am, Ladies and Gentlemen, Yours, faithfully, ' MALCOLM NICCOL.
