In drainage and road orniation your district is very much ichind, and 1 hold the o|iinion thatdrainago Hid other sanitary works should take ireeedence of all others, as the health if a district depends mainly on this. In itrcct formation. I am convinced that much lm lrovement miKht be mndo without any very urge outlay of city funds. The want of more ncansofcoinniunioatlon between Graf ton Road mil Symonds-street, besides the one already mggestnd near to the burial grounds. I think hat provision should he made for at least one itber connecting street before land in the locality ncrcusos too much in value. With regard to arßer questions affecting the whole city, 1 am of jpinion that posterity has been too much •onsidered ut tho manifest cost of the Rate jftj-ers pf the prggont day; not that I object to .voj'k'a lif such d'n'iitiire buiii«'(lQi,n that posterity mist bnncllt tUerpby, but I think that (n the •alsingof any future Loans for City Works of my magnitude some echoine should be devised o extend tho repayment over a longer period, md so keep within bounds the burdens of the iresent Ratepayers. Being eusentlnlly a practical man, should you lo me tho honour to elect mo, my llrst duty ,vill bo to make myself personally conversant .vith the needs of tho district, and do my utmost o remedy them, to uee that the district obtains ts full sharoof the. city expenditure, and that lie cost of every little necessary work is not ;hargcd against Grafton's share of the loans at >resont authorised. I laving no personal interests o serve, further than that the general advanec uent of the district must advance each ralc myor's interests. I will always endeavour to licet tho wishes of the ratopayers in any mg ffcstioji.-j for Improvements, and will at nil times it: Willing tii' cp|)fev'>iilh tlipm on V.II quvjh natters^ I trust the ratepayers will refrain from pledging themsolvos to any candidate It 8 my wish that ralopuyors should not be nsked 0 plodge themselves to me, as I do not hold ■vith the principle many through business and )thcr connections being constrained t.o give a iromise to one when their better .judgment yould have led them in an opposite direction, k'ou will, fia far an possible, bo personally re lUefited to support nio, but no njiccial promise vill ho tukud.
