TO THE FREEMEN AND ELECTORS OF THE CITY OF CHESTER. ENTLEMEN,—I had hoped that live 17th Jan., 1906, my. birthday, would have BOON a day of ploasurable memory for mo For twenty years without a 'ore-alt I had enjoyed the dis- tinguished honour of being the REPRESENTATIVE of your ancient city. During that tinu I had to the best of inv ability attended to your local interests and dono your service in tho wider epbete of tho W d E)1) 1 1C-Ee of Parliament. By increasing' majorities you had confirmed your on ifto and expressed satis- faotioi! witl) my labours. Now I find your confi- dorwo withdrawn and tho trust. I have so long discharged in tliio hands of another. This change in your attitude towards me is as unlooked for as I venture to think it is undeserved. But it has not made, iiio down-hearted Looking at I the increased nurnbor who supported me at the. I poll, and recall iug that, the campaign of organised I raendaoity in mgard to Chinetc Labour in the Transvaal, the gross misrepresentation of my views upon the taxation of food, the unscrupulous personal attacks made upon myseJf, have sueooieded in producing a majority against me: of only 47. I am convinced that on the earliest opportunity Chester, &hak:ng off the nightmare that has possessed lL, will reverse the vordic,t of yesterday and agia,in return ME to the House, of Commons. Meantime, whether that Opportunity oomee sooner or oomes later, my SERVICES will bo UI the I future, AS thoy havo been in THE past, at the command of any of your citizens, irrespective of I party or of creed. I ilavo tho honour to remain, Your obedient, faithful servant, ROBERT YERBURGH. BarwhiLlanty. Parton, N.B., Jan. 18, 1906. t RICHARD JONES AND CO.'S GREAT ANNUAL SALE.
