mO THE ELECTORS 01? THE GREY VALLEY. GENTLEMENI hare this day sent to the Speaker of the House of Representatives MY RESIGN ATIOX as ONE OF THE MEMBERS Representing you in the Parliament of New Zealand. Until now I had hoped to be able to retnrn to my duties, but my medical ad* visers insist upon it that I must not, and assure me that to attend at Wellington during tbe ensuing Session in the present state of my health, and at thisftseason of the yenr, would cost me my life. I deeply regret that necessity compels me to adopt this course, and fully appre* date the kindness and consideration which I have received at your hands. I also venture to think that 'you will give me credit for having devoted myself without reserve to the discharge of my public duties, and for having striven in every way to tbe utmost of my ability to farther your interest. The next Session will bean important one to us, and hoping that my successor may be speedily appointed, so that wo may be fully represented. lam, Yours very truly, EDWARD MASTERS. Melbourne, April 26th, 1881. mO THE ELECTORS OF THE GREY VALLEY DISTRICT. GENTLEMENI beg most respectfully to OFFER MYSELF as a CANDIDATE for tbe SEAT for the GREY VALLEY in the House of Representatives, rendered vacant by the resignation of MrJEdward Masters. As a ground on which partly to base my claims for your support, I would render you that my knowledge of gold* fields affairs generally, and of your dis* trict in particular, is very extensive. lam a strong advocate for the 1 construction of the Bail way to connect the East and WeetJCoasts of the Island, and was one of the first, ; .f not the first, to suggest it as long ago as 1865. I pledge myself that, no efforts on my part shall be wanting* to give speedy effect to a scheme which is of colonial, as well as local importance, and which lain well assured would be aueces* ful from the first moment Itbe line was opened. Without forfeiting mysndependence, 1 am prepared to give a hearty general support to the present Ministry, who have, in my opinion, labored honestly and efficiently|to rescue the country from a financial difficulty— tbe result principally of national extravagance extending over some year?. More prosperous times are in store for the Colony if her public men persistently tread in the path of Reform which has been inaugurated. As I shall be with you in a few days, and shall then avail myself of every con* venient opportunity of addressing you from the public platform. I shall merely add that I look on small farm settlements as furnishing a powerful element for the progress of the country* And that I am favorable to the intro* duction of the ballot system instead of auction in the disposal of Crown lands on, deferred payments, That I shall advocate a thorough revision of the Licensing Laws; the speedy abolition of all remaining provincial ordi« nances ; the pushing forward tbe work of revising tbe Statute Book ; and the simplification of law procedure. My views are altogether progressive, but I mnst confess to having no sym> patby with change merely for ohange sake, I have thr honor to be, Gentlemen, Your most obedient servant, GERALD GEORGE FITZGERALD.
