Mnuur.-In asking the I favour of your Vote and Influence in the forth"""iing Mayoral Election I should like to consideration shewn me on all occasions while I have been a member of the Council. During my term of office I have made it my business to become thoroughly acquainted with the works and finances of the Corporai tion, and have at all times acted in what I . behove to be the best interests of the City. I have also fought, for the uudernoted Reforms: — The necessity of living strictly within our ' income as far as the municipal account is concerned, and the practico of economy in al! depaitmonts. Tho allocated expenditure should not on any account h? exceeded, because if tho overdraft is increased by the cost of works not authorised or provided for, it simply means surreptitious borrowing. That before any works aro embarked upon tho fullest particulars should '- '-■■' More tho C" " ' " 3 that they i the questions intelligently, and be in a position to judgo as to the ultimate effect of such works on tho obligations of the City.. I believe, for all material required by the Corporation, tenders should he invited in the open markets of the world, upon specifications prepared by our own officers, and that our own firms doing business in the City should have a full and (air opportunity of securing the business. If any preference is given, it -HouM bo to tho local people, because in most ' II have also contended that our trading accounts should be submitted in a more com:cial form, and should be as clear and oxWißrnfrnfm place in the past in laying the result.of each year's operations beforo tho Council. As a rub it has been eight or nine months after the end of the year. This should not be. Our Town Clerk (Mr Richards) appreciates the importance of the matter, and I believe this year we shall have within a few weeks of the clow of the financial period a complete statement (not necessarily with tho Auditor and Comptroller's signature) setting out the progress for.tho year of the various large undertakings we are engaged in. This" would enablo the affairs of the City being discussed at tlio proper time, and any improvements necessary I could bo promptly effected. I have occupied tho position of Chairman of ' tho Tramways Committee for the past two years, and although it has been an arduous time, I feel I can safely say that, with tho assistance of a good Committee, this department has now been- placed on a sound and satisfactory footing. I proposo later on to address the electors on ! munioipal matters generally in various parts of tho electorate, either from the platform or by circular, but in'the meantime would say that if elected to the position of Mayor, I feel that I can fulfil tho duties pertaining to the office with satisfaction to the electors', dignity j to the City, and with credit to myself.
