Election. THE SUPERINTENDENCY ELECTION. ELECTORS OF THE PROVINCE OF AUCKLAND. fIENTLEMEN,— It appears to me V>» that it lias now become desirable that the con trol of Auckland Provincial affairs should be trans ferred to tho hands of others than those by whom tha province has been governed during the past. With splendid resources in land, coal, gold, Iron, and other minerals ; with a climate unsurpassed by any in the world; and with a sturdy and industrious population of from 00,000 to 70,000 people, who pay some £300,000 per annum In ttx*s in one shape or another for purposes Rood government, public -works,■ &c, it is saddening to find that we as a province are not only mailing little or no advance towards perrr.anent pros perity, but that at many points wo avo actually retro grading. >._ I attribute this state of things to misgovornment, tho ill-judged expenditure of public money and ex travagance .in the past, which liayo'entailed upon the community grievous burdens in the form of public debts, for which Interest and sinking funds have now to be provided by oppressive tariff duties and other forms of taxation. So far has this state of IMntrs already gono that at the pros nt moment the Provincial authorities of Auckland are at their wits' pnd, and find it exceed ingly difficult and embarrassing to provide adequate means oven for such an important object as cduca t'on. This Province is placed at a further disadvantage by reason of the manner it has been dealt with by the General Government in the expenditure of the large loans which were negotiated on the credit of the whole colony for purposes of Immigration and Public Works. Although we in Auckland are chargeable with the re-payment of about one-fourth part of these Joans, and although we contribute in about that proportion towards providing interest and sinking funds thereon, yet owing to want of united action by our Superintendent and Representatives only a very small portion of the borrowed money has boen employed for our benefit. Our Provincial Revenue for the ensuing year will probably bo under ,£fiO,ooo, and nut of this sum we have to maintain our Police, Gaols, Hospitals, Lunatic Asjlums, Sick and Destitute. Harbours, &c. which cost some £33,000 per annum. After paying the Provincial salaries and Departmental expenses on the present scale little or nothing will therefore remain for aid to Road Hoards, for Bridges, Ferries, Tram ways at the Qoldflclds, &c., and in view of this state; of things I believe it is our iir.st duty to reduce these Provincial salaries and Departmental expenses to an amount proportionate to onr altered means. Our next duty is to require at the hands of our re presentatives that they unite in demanding fr-.m the Assembly and thy Government that justice shall no longer bo denied to this province in the matter of the expenditure of tlin money borrowed upon our credit conjointly with that of the rest of tho colony. I desire to become Superintendent of the Province that f may be in a position to give practical effect to tho above views, ami J,hat then; may bu Fomo com bined effort rnude to bring about a different state of things that morevitiHty may be imparted to our in dustries, such as Mining, Agricultural p'unuits, 'trade and Commerce, find .Manufactures. If, however, you are content to go on m of yore, and elect a politician of the old Auckland school, 1 think you will find, when too late, that ad dition:*] burdonsomo taxation inufit speedily be resorted to. You will also probably find that tho old cystcm of denominational education will be introduced into this province, a system BO often used as an Instrument of favoritism to one party mid ot oppression to another; a system so productive of sectarian jea'ousics and bickerings that It lias boon abandoned by moro advanced communities in favour of a national secular educa tional syHtem. Should you restore the old rrciinc to power you will ulso find that the control of the Police will si.on be transferred to the Provincial authorities to Vie used as It was before, for party or political purposes, During this election contest I have been treated with unfairness by a portion of the Auckland Press, hut ail many of you arc aware the porKoo* whom these papers represent arc interested in re-introducing ami continuing tho state of things which has led the province into its present position. l.ty the abuse of political power mid patronage in the past they them selves lmvo been unable to prosper, while the pio vineo has so languished that it can hardly bo in a worse position, and it now r^sts with you electors to snv by your votes whether you will entrust your iiil'aits for another period of four years to the old hands, or whether you will give me your confidence and support, Hint I may with tho nid of n well chosen Provincial Council be euabled to Inaugurate a change towards a hotter and healthier era. If you d me the honoui to elect me I will Apply mysell diligently and strenuously to effect retrenchment in Provincial .salaries and other Departmental expenses: to obtain just'ee for the Province at the hands of the General Government, and to provide permanently for tho means necussury to carry out a system ol education without resorting to any such obnoxious and unjust measure as tho present Kductition Tax.
