, The Suburban Train Services radiating from Wellington and other-large con Wes must be improved and cheapened so as to cope with the high-rout evil and enable the city workers to live in wholesome surroundings within easy reach or their employment. To this reform I attach the utmost importance. _ I support tbo immediate straightemug of the Hutt lino. 1 am in favour of a State Eire Insurance without compulsion, and State Coal Mines, just'as I havo always been in favour of similar State enterprises and Municipal services. I believe in the continuance of the present Free, Secular, and Compulsory System of Education; but I think ’t mi"hb bo improved by a largely increased'mimber of scholarships, m order to give the boys and girls of all classes tu the community the opportunity of titting themselves for tho highest positions in tho land. Technical education should also receive more attention, otherwise our youth will bo placed at a groat disadvantage compared with those of other countries. . ~ I would retain tho control of the Liquor Traffic in tho hands of tho people, but would not vote for tho question of Prohibition being decided by a bare majority. „ , .. I strongly advocate Deduction ot Duties on the Necessaries of Info, being of opinion that wo can have a *roo Breakfast Table without injury to the colony’s finance. In conclusion, I should make i- my special chro to assist every wise and enlightened scheme for advancing tho interests of Wellington, which has been my homo since boyhood, and in whose local government I have for many years been privileged to tako an active, and, 1 hope, an intelligent part. Ladies and Gentlemen, (bese are my views, and if honoured with your support at the poll, I assure yon nothing shnll ho lacking on my part to give the fullest effect to them.
