ELECTION NOTICES. HARBOR BOARD ELECTION. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE BOROUGH OF GISBORNE. T ADIES AND GENTLEMEN I am seeking your suffrages a rtlie coming Harbor Board election an< 4>efore doing so I wish to place before Non some of my views on questiom ..appertaining to the Borough in connee •tion with Harbor matters. lam £ Labor candidate, and though being oJ -opinion that it is my duty at all times to consider the worker, it must still •.further ,be my privilege to consider the . Borough as a _ whole, and not any one jpai ticular section of it. I am in favoi -of an outer harbor, and believe that the time has arrived when some workable .and profitable scheme should be formulated and placed before-the .ratepayers for their approval. The river has had a .fair trial over rfiany years, and has proved to be inf fit for a fast growing ■district such a# Gilborne and to continue with it jy merjjjsgjitffiT waste money. I am stvoxsdpgi&r opinion that the wharfage changes ape m need of revision, and there shofild bcairtuore equitable tariff made a&jgtflfletweeii exports

flour, which is the rate of os the Tarulieru my consideraud flats in that and imports. are many glaring 'examples whot®in justice is being dons to of one cast being notably in that now charged per ton. A scheme for iocki Itiver would also recei tion, as I believe the p river are a source of danger to the public health, and the evil needs remedying. For some years 1 it will be necessary to use the river even if the outer harbor is started immediately, and I would seek some solution to make the river entrance safe for navigation, which at present it undoubtedly is not. Improved facilities for handling and storing cargo are also needed, and I am -of opinion that the Ivait-i side Jr the river should be utilised for Aimping timber, rails, etc., instead of, *s is done at present, stacking it on :th<#fcown side where it often lies for ham •poring operations on the The question of the BcJfrd doing nts -own lightering, which Would undoubtedly add to the Board’s/i'evenue, would also receive my airndfet consideration. I am of opinion tlat/tUe- Board should take charge of t.hp/goods sheds. At present the and goods sheds are vested in a private company, and J would endeavor to bring about a more satisfactory state of affairs and one more profitable to the Board.
