These two questions are, as I have said, of absorbing interest to the people of Welling ton, as affecting the mercantile interests and the future of the city, and I think it is only reasonable to ask that upon them alone you should give your support to that candidate who is not bound by party ties to vote in a direction contrary to the interests of this por tion of the colony. It is only necessary to add that the completion of these lines in the directions indicated above forms part of the original main trunk system of Sir Julius Vogel, and which made his railway scheme so acceptable to the colonists as a whole. r Gentlemen, if your choice should fall upon me, the representative of Wellington South will appear in Parliament free from any of the dead dogmas of thep'dst, free from party ani mosities and political hatreds, and animated only by the desire to place in office a Govern ment that will at one and the aatne time com mand the respect of the colony', and be of sufficient strength to conduct the trainees of the' Legislature in manner in which I humbly think it plight to tie conducted, I have the" honor’ io gentlemen, * 'Ydor obedient servant, GEO. FISHER. Wellington, 2fth June, 1884* s3l
