To THE ELECTORS OF PLYMOUTH WARD LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, Allow me to thank you for the honour you have dene me in returning me unopposed as your Representative for Plymouth Ward. I must thank the workmen and their representatives who watted upon me and asked me to undertake the duties. I will at all times endeavour to deal fairly and impartially on all questions, and I trust merit the confidence reposed in me. Yonrs sincerely, MARY A. EDMUNDS. Plasycoed, Troedyrhiw. Merthyr Board of Guardians. TO THE ELECTORS OF PENYDARREN WARD. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, Once again I beg to offer myself for re-election on the above Board. During the nine years I have had the honour of representing you, I have discharged my duties faithfully and concientiously. Although family considerations have obliged me to live in Cardiff for the present, I can assure you that this will in no way interfere with my attending the meetings, and eare for the interests of the poor as before. I am in Merthyr almost every day of the week, and consequently, there can be no difficulty in my interviewing any people who wish to see me on matters pertaining to the Merthyr Union. The importance of having women on the Board who can readily enter into matters concerning the aged, the sick, and the little children who are committed to the care of the Guardians, is now fully recognized, and I beg of you, in considera- tion of my former services on the Board, and in the various committees, to henour me with a re- newal of your confidence. I remain, Your; faithfully, (Signed), MARY A. EVANS. The Waterloo, 38, High Street, Merthyr Tydfil, March 21st, 1910. Merthyr Board of Guardians ELECTION, 1910. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE PENY. DARREN WARD. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, Yon have done me the honour of electing me as one of your Representatives on the Board of Guardians for several years past, and as the term for which yon Jast elected me will expire this month, I again appeal to you for a renewal of your confidence, In making this appeal I claim to have faithfully attended to the duties devolving upon me as your Representative on the Board, and as a Guardian of the poor-whilst carefully enquiring into all applications for relief and extending every assistance to the necessitous—I have en- deavoured to avoid reckless distribution and wastefulness in the several Institutions which are managed by the Guardians. A good deal of the work of the Board is done in Committee, and in this direction I have always given ray best attention and regularly visited Schools, Cottage Homes, the House and Infirmary. If you again honour me by electing me as one of your representatives, I will give the same careful attention to your interests, to the wants of the poor in the Penydarren ward, in particular, and of the parish generally. r I am, Ladies and Gentlemen, Your obedient Servant, THOMAS EDWARD MORGAN. 230, High-street, Dowlais, March 17th, 1910. Merthyr Board of Guardians;. TRIENNIAL ELECTION, 1910. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE GADLYS WARD. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, Yoa have now for over 15 years done me the honour of electing me as one of your representa- SJ-ffthyr Board of Goardiaaa, and I ones more respectfully solicit your Votes and Interest. The followrag, among others, may be mentioned as reasons why at least a fair propor- tion of women should be elected on the Board. I.-The largest number of paupers are women and children. 2.—Women are best suited to thecare of women aLd children. 3.-The, great evil of Pauperism can only be diminished by more care in the bringing up and training of chUdren. ♦.—It is desirable that many of the women who are brought before the Guardians should be dealt with by their own sex. 5.—So many women are Ratepayers, and should, therefore, be represented by women as well as men. 6.—Women are accustomed to household man- agement, and have proved their usefulness in the Unions where they have already served as Poor Law Guardians. Since I was first returned many of the reforms I have advocated have been carried out. Ten years ago the Hoard decided to erect two Cottage Homes, and M. ;>fie<juently two more were erected at Bargoed, tue intention at that time being to proceed with others as required. Owing, however, to the congested state of the Workhouse, and the pressure brought to bear by the Local Government Board, it has become imperatively necessary to either extend the Workhouse (which cannot be done on the present site) or to remove some of the inmates to another building. The Board has, therefore, decided to erect 10 more Cottage Homes, which will take all the children at present at the Training Schawl, and thus enable that building to be used for some portion of those now in the house. This in the end will, I am convinced, prove both advantageous to the children and economical to the ratepayers. Our experience already has proved that the boys, and especially the girls brought up in the Cottage Homes are better trained for after life, the girls from these Institutions making far better domestic servants. You are, I have no doubt, all well aware that I have attended the meetings of the Board and its various Committees regularly and faithfully. Although the fortnightly meetings are hardly ever over until nearly three o'clock on Saturdays, I have but rarely left before the whole of the business is over. During the 15 years I have been your Member, I have given every case brought to my notice individual and sympathetic consideration. I can make no fresh promises, bub I venture confidently t to appeal for One of the Three Votes at your disposal on Monday next. I remain, Yours faithfully, MARIA RICHARDS. March 28th, 1910. Gel I ygaeTDistrict Council Election, APRIL 4th, 1910. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE PONTLOTTYN WARD. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, At the invitation of the Pontlottyn Branch of the Miners' Federation, and a large number of other Liberals, I have consented to become your Candidate in the present Election. I come before you as one that has lived 28 years in the Ward has paid attention! to local move- ments that have their tendency to benefit man has watched and observed other possible improve- ments, and anxious to do all that I can to foster everything that will amend the state of my fellow men. ] Having had 20 years' experience of working underground, my heart naturally greatly sym- ■; pathises with my fellow-workmen and I feel that < their comfort is my comfort also. and would deem J it a pleasure to be able to do anything to their support and benefit. I have the privilege of being the first Candidate from the Upper part of the Ward, but with the full and unanimous sanction of the friends of free- dom and progress throughout the Ward as a whole. < The requirements of die district will have my impartial attention and conscientious support. I have no personal interest to serve, nor any ad- vantage to watch, different to the majority of my rellow-electors and fellow-workmen, but I look forward to a period of faithful and persevering servioe, believing that will be the best expression of gratitude for every vote granted to me. Although I am the Selected Candidate of the Miners' Federation, my return will incur no ex- i pense to the same, and I will endeavour to prove the choice to general satisfaction. I am, yours very truly, JOHN WILLIAMS. • Pleaaant View, Rhymney Bridge.
