Candidate for the oilice of the Superintendent of the Province of Auckland that I would take an early opportunity of laying my views before you, I have now the honor to state that for some years past I have looked upon the Provincial Government as costing more money than it was worth, and ibis view I have repeatedly ex pressed to s6me members of the Provincial Council without being shown by any of them any reason to cause me to alter or even"modify my belief ''My opinions as to the desirability of petting rid ofttlie Provincial Government of Auckland have lately beett strengthened, as t feel perfectly satisfied that tliego«d derived from its operations are not at all commensu rate with its costs, and as I am quite convinced that nearly all the work done by the Provincial Govern ment could le done better, more economically,, and with gi-eatersatisfaction to the ratepayers through the instrumentflity of local boards and local institutions than by a Superintendent resident in Auckland... In addition to the expense that would, in,' my opinion, 3e saved to the country by the work of the Provincll Council being done by local road and 6ther ■boards L believe that these boards would work ihore harmojiously with the General Government than tlie Proviicial Government has hitherto done ; and as opening up the-country is the undertaking of greatest importance to the colony tho best method of gfittitfg thewwk done should most certainly, in my opinion, be adapted without loss of time. " ~,g Anl as regards the goldfields I entertain no doubt that the people on these fields could manage ttieir alfai's without the intervention of a Superintendent not resident in, their neighbourhood, and that their loci • representatives could deal batter with -the Supeme Government of the Colony than a Proyin'cial Goiernrpent.. ,: ~•..'':•'' '• 9u ' Vith reference to the desirability of bavingvthe raiways pushed on Quickly" of course' I entirely •flomur, and with regard tofostering the establishment of native industries I presume I. need only refer '.\om ttmy actions during thelast-faw years. .Withregard t> the present" Government I j believe it ,^p ( 'be..the i iost able-Government that New' Zealand evfet Jhad, od 'I fully expect that if the Government'Tet&ivee torn the forthcoming General Assembly that support o which I consider, them entitled, the, native sdiffi iulty aid'all other obstacles to the government M the iolony will disappear - "'"■ ,/•, r, mhuhjj ~' .• q| lam, Gentlemen,^ ■•.<-, J: lo -fuOKl Your most obedient servant; m* ■Aj ' J.

I have rested "* N\.w Zealand for About thirty years, and-may be nihownVto mariy of your community,-but as!

' With regard to the present Government, mv View* are most favourable to the policy which'tJioyl havo inaugurated I consider the Government.esse^ftlly one of progress, and I believe that, the great scames of public works and immigration are of iinialduiable value to tlie whole colony, as being the best'means-for promoting settlement'of population, as thereb*i» curing peace. But though Iso highly appreciate J*s ' value of the schemes,'referred to, I do not assert Uiat in the carrying out of the 'same serious mist^es have not already been made; manyof which would possibly have; been avoided had the; Government received more'cordial support and assistances from^he Assembly, as I consider that much valuable'tiMlfe Jas lost, and the energies of the Government distweteaor paralysed by Opposition; which had the effentol impeding, and delaying the business cf,the county, one ot the many Public Works so delayed bemgvthe • Railway from Kawakawa Coal-mines to deep water. I trust' you will pardon me f or.asking you.tO keep in view, when deciding for which candidate, you yill record your votes,. that any member sent to the Assembly who islikely to be antagonistic to the present Government, or favourable to the' Opposition, wfll^ in my opinion, most seriously injure your district ahd the country generally.
