TO THE BURGESSES, DOROUC OF GISBORNE. T ABIES AND GENTLEMEN,— if I have, had tho lion to of serving .you oil tlio Borough Con oil for four years. M.v views tlioi fore on Municipal matters uro w< >2 known. If my record Ims met wi your aproval, ] sluill bo pleased liavc your support at the forthcor _ ing Election. In any ease, T shn • continue to do my utmost for tile a< vimcoment of the town and distric i Faithfully yours, john'w. bright. ‘ MAYORAL ELECTION. ' TO THE BURGESSES OF GISBORNE. | fi\ again acceding to (he revues to contest the Mayoralty, I di so with feelings of great respect t< the presetn occupant of the positioi (Mr. Town Icy), realising, however, at the same time, that our progres; lias been retarded ill the past, aii'l will continue to lie retarded in tlw future, by his attitude, thus muting it very bard and difficult for progressive works and changes to be mado on sound and prudent lines. Shortly, I am stiongly. in favor of an Outer Harbor-, and consider that no time should bo lost in getting an Enabling Bill passed, and then, having Mr. Marchant’s scheme placed before the people for their linal approval or disapproval, so soon as it has been approved of, or modified, by the Consulting Engineer. In the meantime, I consider that the expenditure upon the River works should be curtailed as much as possible, and that only absolutely necessary works should be done, in order to keep the liver open and enable full use of it to be made. I consider that, with water, some ocouom ical and prudent scheme of Sewage must follow, for the health and convenience of the public. A site should be selected and secured for Municipal buildings, and a start made by erecting offices suitable for our present requirements, the offices now occupied being entirely inadequate,and without, a fixed tenure. Better arrangements are urgently needed for Metalling our streets and. footpaths. Generally, my policy would be to see that the Borough and Harbor Board got good value for their money, which, I regret to say. I do not consider they have always got in the past. ft cannot lie denied that Gisborne is far behind all other places of equal importance in the colon y of Now Zealand in its improvements, and -that it needs fresh and vigorous administration in order to bring it to a level even , with places of less importance. I am, Yours faithfully, W. BOUGLAS LYSNAR. MAYORAL ELECTION

XN compliance will the expressed wish of a number of Burgesses, I again offe.r myself for election to tlie office of MAYOR. Briefly stated, my views are the following: WATER SUPPLY. —I am anxious to sen this work completed. It promises to bo a splendid success, and I shall deem it an honor t) bo vour Mayor when the work is completed. With this out of the way other pressing wants must he attended to, particularly that of DRAINAGE. I am strongly of opinion that this must follow the introduction of the Water Supply. Gisborne must keep up with the times, and the Drainage question must ho faced. With regard to the OUTER HARBOR SCHEME, l am emphatically in favor of this, and if the passage of. an Enabling Bill in the coining session of Parliament will give the ratepayers an earlier opportunity of voting upon this scheme Ilian otherwise, the Bill will have my hearty support. In asking the Burgesses for a renewal of their confidence in me, I do with the hope that my actions in the past have given satisfaction to you. I await the Election Day with every confidence. J.
