Returning Officer, Auckland East. ; mo THE ELECTORS OF AUCKLAND EAST. LADIES AND gentlemen,— As a Candidate for City East, I beg to place before you a short summary of my political views, and as a straight-out Oppositionist, I hope to secure your support. l shall address meetings during the week. _. While recognising, as a Liberal should, some eoodj work done by the present Government, I consider, that the balance is against them, and that there is urgent neces- : sity for a change. «• *u» The main planks of the platform of tto Reform ■ Party—small" freehold and rapid ' settlement, free education from the primary school to the '.university,-, sounder borrowing. Parliamentary control, and honest administration—are well- known to most erectors. t I wish to emphasise in detail some of the I reforms which I particularly urge:— j ; 1. REORGANISATION OF ACCOUNTS. ■' A balance-sheet of the Dominion of Canada ie a business man's balance-sheet, but an expert accountant could not tell the financial position of the New Zealand Government: from the - accounts as presented. Canada's Audit Act provided for the double: entry system from the beginning. An expert" from the Canadian Audit Department, should be imported, who. with New Zealand experts, would remodel the whole of the accounts and the audit system. V " ' - 2. NATIVE LAND. The recent" Commission was' almost entirely pro-Maori. While desiring to treat the Maori with justice, I think the ti ties must be rapidly individualised, and a large proI portion of land sold upon the freehold I tenure. Half the money at least must be : vested 'in a Board .of Trustees for the educa- | tion of Maoris, chiefly as farmers. -. : -- L . 3. HOME PROTECTION. " The Family Homo Protection Bill, drawn by me after a careful study of the Homestead Laws of the United States, was introduced into the House of Representatives by W. F. Massey, Esq.. M.P.. last session. It enables a man to make his wife- a partner in the home, and it protects the home absolutely on insolvency or irom sale lor debt until the youngest child attains the age of 21 Tears, and until the death of the widow. The arrangement is no clog upon any dealing with tho home, so long as; the wife, consents to it. . The system has. been : highly praised bv the Supreme Court judges of the United States. • '-"••■'■ 4. GAMBLING EVIL. The best way to deal with the bookmaker is to abolish the licensing system ot tne present Government, and to create the 01fence of " habitually betting as a means ot support." A man charged with-it could escape imprisonment by. showmgr that he had ample property to live on.. Such men beip-r known, I would give a right to any emnTover. of a defaulting clerk : to recover the" whole amount on proof of betting transactions.- The totaUsator under this system would he unnecessary, c and I would favourits abolition."."-1 am not in favour of continuin* »the taxation of £200.000 per annum on the race-going people for the sake of the totalisator. : Let owners pay for their own sport. ' 5. TO t THE WORKERS. ' I am of ottinion that arbitration increases your NOMINAL and DECREASES your REAL waces. still it is useful. Workers will only derive real benefit from the rapid settlement of the land on the small freehold '». which relieves congestion. HAISES WAGES, and LOWERS COST OF LIVING. .. j ■ 6. PROHIBITION. u , I am in favour oV prohibition, and believe in the BASE MAJORITY as * a liberal principle A settlement of .the . matter would necessarily have to be in tho nature of a "SvlSlectors in the Newton District to meet ■ me at the Schoolroom, ' Church. - Karanirahape ; : Road, v-? o^^, 1 , (THURSDAY), when I will explain my views more fully in an address. . , ■ Yours faithfully.
