MONTGOMERY COUNTY COUNCIL ELECTION, 10" TO THE ELECTORS OF TREGYNON AND MANAFON PARISHES. MT LORD, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,— FOR THR, PAST 12 YEARS YOU HAVE -t* done me the honour of electing me as your representative upon the County Council. During that time I have endeavoured to the best of my ability to watch and serve your interests, which, as ratepayers, are identical with my own. The efficient administration of education in this county has of necessity been somewhat costly, but none of the ratepayers' money has been squandered. It has been invested in a manner which will undoubtedly return a rich harvest. The fact that during the past three years the Education rate has not been increased is, I think, a striking testimony to the economy and vigilance of our careful management. The heavy motor and waggon traffic, and the disastrous flood of 1908, are chiefly responsible for the expenditure on the main roads; here, again, we have. done our utmost to economise as much as possible, and should the Budget become law the burden on the ratepayers will be con- siderably lightened. I have diligently followed the asylum question, |to»hich is fraught with the greatest importance to this county, and shall do my utmost to see that Montgomeryshire receives tair play and justice at the hands of Shropshire. 1 shall always protest against legislation which in any way handicaps us as farmers, and do my best to turther the agricultural interests of the county. Anything which especially affects the parishes of my constituents will always claim my closest attention. Thanking you for favouring me with your continued confidence. I am, Yours faithfully, EVAN LEWIS. Argoed, Tregynon, February 26th, 1910. (263) MONTGOMERY COUNTY COUNCIL ELECTION. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE GUILS- FIELD (WITHOUT) DIVISION OF THE COUNTY OF MONTGOMERY. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,— OWING TO THE LAMENTED DEATH of Captain Mytton, there has oc- curred a vacancy in the representation of the above division. I beg to offer myself as a Candidate, and should you do me the honour of returning me as your Representative, it shall be my endeavour to carry out the duties of the office to your satisfaction. I am, Your Obedient Servant, FRANCIS G. HOWORTH. Bod Issa, Guilsfield, o Welshpool. February 21st, 1910. COUNTY OF MONTGOMERY. TO THE COUNTY COUNCIL ELECTORS OF THE DIVISION OF FORDEN. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,— AT THE REQUEST OF A LARGE number of Ratepayers, I again beg to offer myself as a Candidate for the honour of representing you on the County Council. I have great pleasure in accepting the in- vitation, as I feel that in an Agricultural Parish, such as Forden, your interests will be better served by a Tenant Farmer, and by one who has long been a Resident and Ratepayer in the Parish* It is only lately that Agriculturists have realised the power and the benefits of com- bination, and is very essential to the inter- ests of the Farmers' Association that rural parishes should be represented on the County Council by Tenant Farmers. As Forden is largely composed of Farmers, Small Holders, and Agricultural Labourers, I appeal to you most earnestly to give me your interest and votes on this occasion. I intend calling upon you at the earliest opportunity, and shall be pleased to dis- cuss the Small Holdings Act, Education, or any other point which may interest you. Our wants are identical, and as a large Ratepayer the burdens press on me equally with yourselves, and my earnest endeavour, if elected, will be to keep the Rates as low as possible, without sacrificing efficiency. I remain, Ladies and Gentlemen, Your Obedient Servant, TOM ROGERS. Penylan, Forden, February 15th, 1910. (235) FOR COSTUMES. DRESSES, & BLOUSES. SPRING& SUMMER MATERIALS NOW READY!

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,— OWING TO THE LAMENTED DEATH of Captain Mytton it has become necessary for you to elect a successor in the Representation of the above Division. Acceding to the request of a large number of Ratepayers, I have much pleasure in offering my services as Candidate. Having been a Resident amongst you all my life, and also acted as your member on the Rural District Council since its formation, and on the Highway Board for about 12 years previously, I may claim to have some knowledge of the requirements of the Ratepayers. Should you do me the honour of electing me, it shall be my constant endeavour to justify your confidence. I remain, Your obedient Servant, DAVID JONES. Lower Maesgwyn, = Guilsfield, February 22nd, 1910. (278) COUNTY COUNCIL ELECTION, 1910. TO THE ELECTORS OF BERRIEW AND CASTLE C \EREINION. Glansevern, Berrriew, February 25th, 1910. My LORD, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,— I DEEPLY APF CECIATE THE CONFIDENCE you have placed in me as your Representative on the County Council for the past three yaars, and I have earnestly tried to repay you by con- stant and diligent attention to the management of our local affairs. An influential and representative body of Rate- payers have honoured me by inviting me to con- tinue in this responsible position, and I accord- ingly appeal to you in the common interests of us all to return me as your member for this District. Thv trust you have always placed in me enables me now to devote an intimate knowledge of our public business to the furtherance of your welfare, and I shall always pursue that aim in a business- like and efficient manner. Believe me, Faithfully yours, (252) A. E. HUMPHREYS-OWEN. COUNTY COUNCIL ELECTION, IJxO. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE PARISH OF KERRY. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,— NOTWITHSTANDING THE EFFORTS made to avoid a contest one is forced upon us in the forthcoming election, and, having been asked to do so by many influential ratepayers in the parish, I come forward as a Candidate, and trust you will favour me with your support. If you honour me by electing me as your Representative T will endeavour to support a policy of efficiency combined with economy. The rates are at present a heavy burden, and may very possibly become a greater one, and in this connection I may mention that in my opinion there has been considerable extravagance in the provision of extra schools, some of which seem to me to be entirely unnecessary. Another matter to which I beg to call your attention is the exceedingly bad state of the Main Roads in the parish, an evil I should attempt to have remedied. Any matter of agricultural interest I should look at from the farmer's point of view. The Poll being fixed for Saturday next I shall not be able, as I should have wished, to personally visit each voter, but I trust that the will may be taken for the deed, and that you will see your way to attend at your polling station and give me your vote. I am, Ladies and Gentlemen, Your Obedient Servant, JOHN WILKES POUNDLEY. Black Hal), Kerry, 28th February, 1910. M273 MONTGOMERY COUNTY COUNCIL ELECTION, 1910. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE PARISH OF KERRY. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,— AT THE INVITATION OF A NUMBER OF fellow farmers in this parish, I beg to offer myself as a candidate at the above election. I am net altogether new to the public service, as I have been for nine years in succession the representative for Sarn parish upon the Newtown and Llanidloes Union and the Rural District Council. I also served some years previously upon the Forden Guardians and Rural Council. As I am one of the largest ratepayers in the division, it is clear that high rates would hit me harder than most people, and I would never agree to any reckless spending of ratepayers' money. Nevertheless I am in favour of our children having the opportunity of a sound education, and our roads, bridges, and public works being kept in proper order. All proposals which are introduced for the benefit of the tenant farmers and labourers in the county would have my active support. Provided the land can be purchased at a cost which would ensure profitable working to the tenant and be no burden on the rates, I should endeavour to bring the Small Holdings Act within the reach of the numerous class for whose benefit it was specially intended. If the present Budget now before Parliament passes, a great saving in the rates will be effected, and the people who are mainly responsible for wearing out the roads will be called upon to pay their due share. We have a difficult question before us in the proposed Bicton Asylum extension. If elected I shall make a careful study of this problem, and vote for the most economical course, never for- getting the humane side of the question. If elected it would be my earnest, endeavour to attend the meetings of the County Council regu- larly, and otherwise faithfully discharge the trust placed in me. I I am afraid that I shall bo unable in the short time before the election to see all of you person- ally, but I ask for your vote with the full assur- ance that I shall do my utmost to advance your interests.
