ELECTION NOTICESTO THE" ELECTORS OP THE j, WAITOTAEA KAI IWI DISTRICT . fi ENTLEMEN,—I am a candidate IT for your suffrages at the approaching election for the Provincial Council. As one of the oldest settlers of the , district, I am well known to most of you, and am ready to do my best; to represent Your interests, "which are also my own. The extent of my abilities you are as well able to estimate as I am myself, and I need say nothing further " on that subject. Ido not expect to set the "Wangauui river on fire, although I L am exceedingly anxious to see its channel deepened, and shall do rriy best to secure the fulfilment of that object from Provincial funds. I shall do my best to procure the alteration of the . existing Education Act of this Province, in very material respects, so as to render it less oppressive in its character, ■ and more capable of being efficiently j worked. If elected lat any rate can - promise to attend to the duties of the office, and do whatever I may be able to do in your interests. I am, Gentlemen, Tours faithfully, JAMES ALEXANDER. Jan 30, 1873. TO THE ELECTORS, OP THE RANGITIEKI DISTRICT pENTLTLMEN,—At the urgent in\J stance of a large number of the Electors of this District, I have consented to become a Candidate for the representation of Rangitikei in the Provincial Council. My time being at present so,fully occupied in connection with the Education Board will prevent any personal canvass on my part, bub seeing that it is not very long since I had the opportunity \ of fully explaining my individual views on the various points bearing on provincial politics, I trust that you will overlook my inability to address you on the present occasion. I am desirous of obtaining a seat in the Provincial Council for many reasons, amongst others, that I ma}' have an opportunity to aid in amending the presort Education Act, the experience I have had in the working' of the present one, enabling me to judge as to the direction in which such amendments must tend. If elected I shall also endeavour to have an Act passed giving modified powers of a Town Board to such of our Townships as may desire it, so as to enable them to form footpaths, construct drains, light the streets, etc., and at the same time try to induce the Government to put the Licensing Act on a more satisfactory footing. Should you do me the honor to elect me, you may lely on my utmost endeavours to promote the welfare, of the District, at a time when it -will take the exertions of your representatives, whoever they may be, to seethat Rangitikei has accorded to it its fair share in the future expenditure of the Province. I have the honor to be, Gentlemen, Your most obedient servant. CHARLES C. GRAHAM. January 22, 1873. WANGAEHU ELECTION.
