COOK COUNTY ELECTIONS. "jO-ANGAROA TJIDING. TO THE RATEPAYERS. T ADIES AND GENTLEMEN,— ,1 would respectfully remind the Ratepayers that I will again be a Candidate for Election for the Hangaroa Riding. I have had the honor of being your representative (with one short break of office during a visit to the Homeland) for seventeen years. My endeavor has always been to do* my utmost for the whale of the ratepayers of the Riding, and, if re-elected, I will not m any way slacken my efforts to secure all possible improvements necessary for the welfare of the ratepayers* I can claim to have a very thorough and intimate > {knowledge of every portion of the Riding, and it has always been my. aim to nave the moneys foi* the Riding expended fairly and m the very bast interests of all concerned. The Riding is not an easy one to administer, it having so many communities of interest, • but m my honest efforts to be impartial I have, I feel, gained the respect not only of the ratepayers, but also of my fellow-members on the Council, who have entrusted me with the important duties appertaining to the chairmanship. I fully recognise that a very great deal has still to he done to secure much-needed road improvements m many directions, and it is my firm opinion that the time has nowarrived when the ratepayers should agree to proposals having for their object the raising of moderate sums by way Of. loans. Under this system it will be possible to make improvements (m a much more satisfactory scale, and the works so carried out will afford permanent results, and, consequently, prove very much cheaper m the long run. What is more, the. ratepayers will be avoided much inconvenience which is inseparable from the present system under which very heavy maintenance work has to be constantly undertaken out of revenue. The Riding is rapidly becoming more settled, and* its growing prosperity warrants the carrying out of further improvements on the lines here indicated. I trust that I may once again have the honor of being re-elected to the Council as the representative of the Riding, for I share the aims of its ratepayers m promoting its advancement and welfare. I remain, Yours faithfully, 831 F. .7. LYSNAR. HOSPITAL BOARD ELECTION. WE, the undersigned Ratepayers m .''*. Cook County, offer our services as Candidates for Membersip of the Hospital Board.
