With much pleasure I liavo acceeded to the request contained in the ■requisition presented to me, and have been nominated for election to theCounifrh 2. I believe in building upon a sound foundaTTotf, and consider that the cultivation of such a spirit as will lead to “prido of place” being felt concerning Gisborne is to be encouraged, and whether elected or not, it will ever be my aim to urge /upon you the adoption ot those means which tend to health of mind and body. Recreation is as necessary to good'living as is work, and the promotion of beauty spots # in and about the town will not only increase our pride in Gisborne, but will cxeioisc an influence for good upon the rising community in our midst. 3. The. health of the community should be preserved (a) by the immediate carrying into effect of a drainage •scheme. This matter must be imperatively demanded by you. Drainago schemes of much .greater magnitude than any yet proposed in Gisborne have been successfully carried out, and, although the absence, of fall is a serious •item it is not an insurmountable obstacle,. (b) By a more frequent *cmoval of house refuse. 4, The safety and comfort of resists should bo. increased by the placer of more lights in the streets, (parnilar ly the back ones), and t* ie ioption, .concerning our roads, of those ethods which have brought the streets the cities of the Dominion up to eir present standard. 5 I have the welfare of Gisborne, and o well-being of its residents, at heart, am allied or hound to no party. Yours Faithfully, JAMES ROBERT KIRK.
