Inglowood, 11th August, 1879. 0392— hb to TO THE ELEOTORS OF GREY AND BBLL p ENTLEMEN,— Having been reqtteeted to VJT come forward by a number of Electors, wboßO viowß upon the Native Question arid Hurbour do not coinoide with thoso publicly expressed by the only candidate at present soliciting your support, I beg to offer myself as a candidate for your suffrages. I believe that the Native Difficulty in this district will never be disposed of till tho country is thoroughly opened up by roads and railways; till places of refuge' for the dis* affected, liko Parihaka, are suppressed, and tho natives are unJuistakeably abown that tne law knows no distinction pf colour or raoo, aud the authorities are determined to arrest and punish criminals and law-broukeraofany degree, fanatical or otherwise. ' At the name timo I think all those natives who express themselves as willing to live peaceably under tho law should be provided with and placed iij)on ample reserves. As tho settlement of tho Waimate Plains must, at an early date, ongago attention, it bebovos tho three representatives of tbisooast to unanimously combiuo to carefully and constantly watoh over the Harbour Endowments, any laxity in so doing would materially retard tho successful oarrying out of those works which have taken years of perseveranoo to iuitiate, works which, when oomplotod, will combined with tho settlement of tho native difficulty, teud to placo Taranaki in the foiemoa^fttuk of New Zealand setUs> ments.— l am',/ * ■'- -.
