TO THE ELROPORS OF WARD 4:

¢ YENTLEMEN, At « ineeting of the 1A electors of Ward 4, hott on Friday evening last, { declined the nomination oficren me, as | then understood other candi- dates were in the fied, holding views the same os my own; buf having since been waited upon by a large and intluential com- | mittee, composed of electors of Ward 4, and | feeling as | do that it is a mistake to allow auy ward to elect its represeatatives by accla- mation, especially when questions of great |importence are claiming the attention of our cit.zons, | have decited to contest the Ward, not in my own interest but I trust in the interest of citizens generally. Believing, as 1 do, that a system of Water- works, suitable to the requirements of our | city, is a positive necessity, { shall, if elected | as your representative, do all in my power to | have water introduced under the best possible | arrangements for the citiz. ns,

Ido not approve of the present mode of j taxation, therefore would favor ao readjust- ment of the taxes which would do justice to all, favors to none.

1 consider that the interests of our city | have, for some years past, suffered very ma- terially from the fact that people do not take that interest in civic affairs that, as citizens, we all should feel it our duty to do. i would therefore support any good mensure that may be suggested at the Council Board, making it compulsory for Mayor and Covncillors to retire either annually or at some stated time, or that all representatives should be elected by the whole city.

I remain, Gentlemen, Yours truly, HORACE HASZARD, jan20 —eod tl electn.

To the Hiectors of Ward 5:

{ ENTLEMEN,—Having been nominated Kata public meeting of the Ward as a candidate for civic honors at the ensuing election, | most respectfully accept the nom- ination, and solicit a continuance of that support which you gave me in the past.

It elected to represent you in the Council, | shall continue to advocate those measures of reform and retrenchment which | believe are best calculated to advance the interests of the city and relieve the taxpayers. I am, gentle- men,

Your obedient servant,
