Gentlemen, — Some years ago I had the honor to contest the Manawatu seat with the present Postmaster - General, and, although defeated, I obtained a substantial majority of votes in the settlements now included within the new Electoral District of Foxton. On thanking my suppoiters for this expression of confidence, I promised to offer myself again on some future occasion. The approaching General Election affords me that opportunity, and I have now to announce myself a candidate for the honor of representing your District in the new Parliament. It is my intention, before the election, to visit the various centres of population for the purpose of explaining to you fully my views on the leading questions of the day ; and, in the event of my being returned, it will be my earnest aim at all times to prove myself deserving of the confidence and support which I now solicit. I am, Gentlemen, yours faithfully, WALTER L. ROLLER, Wellington, Sept. 26, 1881. 7174 TO THE ELECTORS OF THE FOXTON DISTRICT. Gentlemen, — At the request of numerous electors I venture to offer myself as a Candidate for the Foxton seat in the new Parliament. I shall have the honor of stating my political views to the electors at meetings to be held on early dates, of which due notice will be given. I have the honor to be, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, 7219 WM. FRANCE. TO THE ELECTORS OP THE TE ARO DISTRICT. Gentlemen, — The Representation Act having constituted Te Aro a separate electorate, I have the honor to offer myself as a Candidate for that District. My views upon some of the most important questions are as follows : I should oppose any legislation having for its object the separation of the colony by giving separate Legislatures to the North and South Islands, and any attempt to revert to the Provincial system. At the same time, I think that the powers of County Councils should be increased. I am opposed to farther taxation, because I think that by retrenchment the revenues of the colony will pay the interest upon loans and provide for carrying on the Government. If further taxation becomes necessary, I should support the Property Tax, exempting machinery and agricultural implements in use, and the present exemption of £SOO, and an Income Tax on incomes above a reasonable amount. These taxes should be so arranged as to ensure the burden being borne by all of us proportionally to our means, I am in favor of Free State Education, but under the present financial difficulties of the colony the expenditure is more than we can afford. This should for a time be reduced consistently with not destroying the system itself. When the finances of the colony are again satisfactory, I should support an increased sum being placed on the Estimates. I should support any measure having for its object the introduction into the colony of small capitalist farmers, and their occupation, upon favorable terms, of the waste lands of the colony, and every measure which will enable persons to become lona fide settlers of small blocks of land on reasonable terms. lam in favor of taxing Native lands. The colony incurs a large expenditure, specially applicable to Natives and Native land, and I think they and their lands ought to bear a portion of the taxation. I am a strong advocate for local industries, such as the proposed woollen factory. Every effort must be made to keep within the colony the industrial population, which, unfortunately, has been for some time past leaving us. I think that by economy, by encouraging and promoting local industries, and by the development of the resources of the colony, we shall soon overcome our difficulties. Local industries cannot grow up or our resources be developed without both capital and labor, and care must be taken that both ate encouraged. I should strive to obtain for this city and the adjoining districts a larger share of public money than they have received in the past. I consider the completion of the West Coast Railway an essential to the welfare of this city, and would do my utmost to further any legislation to that end, as also to obtain for the Harbor Board endowments. There are other subjects of importance requiring legislation, which I will refer to when I address you personally. If elected, I shall endeavor to do my duty as your representative. I have no grievances to redress and no personal end to serve. I will address you peisonally at an early date. I have the honor to be. Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, 7365 E. STAFFORD
