Election Notices. mO THE ELECTORS OF WAIMATE. Gentlemen, — My engagements m the North have prevented me from visiting you at present, but as I intend to address the Electors m this part of the country again, before the Election, I will then make arrangements for meeting you. I trust that, m the meantime, you will favour me by withholding any pledges to the other candidates. I am, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, W. T. L. TRAVERS. Timaru, January IG, 18GG. mO THE ELECTORS OF THE PROVINCE OF CANTERBURY. Gentlemen, — I have the honour to inform you that it is my intention to otter myself at the ensuing- election as a candidate for the office of Superintendent of this province. I give this early notice, m the hope that you may be induced to abstain from giving pledges to any candidate until you have heard the views of each upon the important questions now discussed as matters of general and local policy 1 . At an early date 1 will do myself the honour of requesting your attendance at Christchurch, Timaru, Lyttelton, Kaiapoi, Akaroa, and Hokitika, for the purpose of giving you, m detail, my views upon those questions. I have the honor to be, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, W. T. L. TRAVERS. 1, Stone Buildings, Christchurch, Canterbury, New Zealand, November 7, 1860. mO THE ELECTORS OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT. Gentlemen, — Some of the supporters of my opponents have, (as I am informed) stated that if I were elected, I should not be able to obtain an Executive. Upon what ground they say this, I am at a loss to understand. I have been confidential legal adviser to ' a large number of the leading men of this Province, for some years, and I do not apprehend that any gentleman amongst them would object to work with me m carrying out a great policy for this countiy, unless he differed with me m regard to that policy. I have every reason to believe that I should have no difficulty m securing the assistance and advice of thoroughly honourable and able men. It is also said, that to support me would ensure the return of Mr. Lance. This is a fallacy. I assure yon that Mr. Lance has but little prospect of success, and that the real contest will be between Mr. Moorhouse and myself. This is well known m the North, although the whole of the Press there affect to ignore me ; a sorry " ruse" which they will be unable to continue much longer. They will at least be compelled to discuss my policy, let them say what they like about me, for I intend, on my return to Christchurch, to bring it prominently before the public, and it concerns many of the supports both of Mr. Moorhouse and Mr. Lance, far too much to be passed over m silence. I trust you will place no reliance on these absurd reports, notwithstanding' the apparent confident assertions of those who are interested m damaging my prospects of success. I am, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, W. T. L. TRAVERS. Timaru, January 16, 1SGG.
