i«__ra_sfcffiaieES3»_- •:-^_i^s__vs___j -Ejection. .. __*._ THE SUPERINTENDENCY ELECTION. ELECTORS OF THE PROVINCE OF AUCKLAND. GPNTLEMEN,— It appears to me that it, has now 1 ccome desirable that Ihe con trol of Auckland Provincial affairs should be trans ferred to tlio hanris 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 Hie world ; and with a sturdy and industrious population of from 00,000 to 70,000 people, who pay some .£300,000 per annum in t.,xes in ove shape or another for purposes goorl government, public works &c, it is saddening to find that v.c as a province are not only making little or no advance towards permanent pros perity, but that at many points we are actually retro grading. I attribute this state of things to misgovernmer.t, the ill-judged expenditure of public money and ex travagance in the past, which have entailed upon the community grievous burdens in the form of public debts, for which interest and sinking funds have now 1o be provided by oppressive tariir duties and other forms of taxation. So far has this state of things already gone that at the pros nt moment the Provincial authorities of Auckland arc at their wits'end, and find it exceed ingly difficult and embarrassing to provide adequate means even for such an important object as educa t'on Thi3 Province is placed at a further disadvantage by reifon of the manner it h*s been dealt with by the General Government in the expenditure of the laree loans which were negotiaicd on the credit of the whole colony for purposes of Immigration and Public Works. Although wc in Auckland ar« chargeable with the re-payment of about one-fourth part of these loans, and although w« 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 be^n employed fov our benefit. Our Provincial Revenue for the ensuing year will probably be under £50,000, 3iid out of this sum we have to maintain our Police, Gaols. Hospitals. Lunatic Asjlums, Sick and Destitute. Harbours, &c. which cost snme £33,000 per annum. After paying the . Provincial salaries and Departmental expenses on the j present sca'e little or nothing will therefo'O remain for aid to Road Boards, for Bridges. Ferries. Tram ways at tho Goldfields, &c, and in view of this state of things I belltve it is our first duty to reduce these Provincial salaries and Departmental expenses to an amount proportionate-to our altered means. Our next duty is to require at the hands of our re presentatives that they unite in demanding from the Assembly and the Government that justice sha'l no longer be denied to this province in U:e matter of the expenditure of the money borrowed upon our credit conjointly with that of the rest of the colony. 1 desire tobecoTc Superintendent of the Province that I may be in a position to give practical effect to the above views, and that there may be Fome com bined effort made to biing about a different state of things that more vit illty may t,e imparled to our in dustries, such as Mining, Agricultural pursuits, '1 rade and < ominer-e. and Manufactures. If, however <-ou »re content to go on as of vorc, and elect a politieim of the old Auckland school, 1 think you will find when too late, that ad ditional burdensome taxation must speedily be resorted to. You will also probably find that tho old system of denominational education will be introduced into tliis province, a system so often used as an if strument of favoritism to one party and ot oppression to another; a system so productive of sectarian jealousies ami bickerings that it has been abandoned by more advanced communities in favour of a national secular educa tional system. Should you restore tbe o d rcrime to power you will also find that the control of the Police will scon lie transferred to the Provincial authorities to be used as it was before, for party or political purposes During this election contest T have been treated with unfairness by a portion of the Auckland Tress, but as many of you are aware the persons whom th'SO papers represent are interested in re-introducing and continuing the state of things which has led the province into its present position. I'.y 'he abuse of political power and patronage in the past they them selves have been unable to prosper, while tlie pro vince has so languished that it can hardly be in a worse position, and it now r-sta with you electors to say by your votes whether you will entrust your affairs for another period of" four years to tbe old hands, or whether you will give me your confidence and support, that I may with tbe aid of a well chosen Provincial Council be enabled to inaugurate a change towards a better and healthier era. If you d me the honour to elect me I will apply myself diligently and strenuously to effect retrenchment in Provincial salaries ami other Departmental expenses : to obtain just'ee for the Province at tin; hands of the General Government, nnd to provide permanently for tho means necessary to carry out a system of education without resorting to any such obnoxious and unjust measure as tbe present Education Tax 1 am, Gcntlomen, Ycmrs.failhfully. .;. :.r. rsA^OAViT.Ln.

It is finished by distillation, without treatment ■with acid- a.n.\ alkalies as tho last process. It is double distilled for the purpose of removing the acids and alkalies used in the manufacture of all Petroleum Oils, but which cannot be removed except by their process, 3rd. The Downor Oil being chemically pure, burns with more brilliancy of flame, consuming less oil for a given amount of light. It ,?ivos less trouble, because lhe Lamps require less frequent tilling, and the wick less frequent trimming 4th. Although the Downer OU costs more per gallon than other oils, it is, in the end, cheaper for tho con sumer, becauso it gives a greater amount of light with consumption of oil. Your grocer may tell you he has on sale an oil in uallty equal to Downer Oil. Don't believe this story. Downor Oil is quoted and known all over the world as the highest standard brand. This reputation has been achieved by its having been made by a better process and more costly than others, which process has been adhered to from the beginning, without re gard to expense. „5T N.B.— DOWNER'S KEROSENE __ THE ONLY BRAND Thatl will/give |entlre, satisfaction in the Anucapnic Lamp.
