D. POWELL. RHONDDA URBAN DISTRICT COUNCIL ELECTION. NO. 8 WARD. TO THE ELECTORS. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, At the earnest request of a large number of influential ratepayers, I have, after due consideration, consented to seek your suffrages in the Election of District Councillors for the above Ward. Having lived in your midst for upwards of thirty-three years, I have seen the Ward grow, nntil it has become a most important centre. I have at all times taken a keen interest in its advancement, and have felt that for our members we should have men to represent us with a thorough knowledge of the work to be done, and who can discuss from practical experience the cost to the Ward for all improvements contemplated. Matters of vital interest will be discussed in connection with the district, and being a heavy ratepayer myself, I need hardly state that I shall at all timps exercise strict economy in the expenditure of public money. I further pledge myself to support any measure which will still further benefit the Ward, and, if it be your pleasure to return me as one of your representatives, I shall endeavour to discharge the duties devolving upon me faithfully and efficiently, and will act at all times in a truly UNBIASSED manner. I am, Ladies and Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, DAVID POWELL. Porth Farm House, Porth. 4623 THE RHONDDA URBAN DISTRICT COUNCIL ELECTION, March 27th, 1899. TO THE ELECTORS OF No. 8 WARD (Known as Poith. Cymmer, and Hafod Ward). LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, I have been invited by a number of Electors-business and working men—to d'fa myself as a candidate for the honour of being one of your three representatives upon the District Council, and I have, after due considera- tion, decided to allow myself to be nominated as a condidate, and avail myself of this opportunity of soliciting your support and suffrage. I am well-known to the majority of Electors. having resided in the w«rd for a number of years; and I venture to say that my large business transactions gives me a qualification that is essential in performing a public duty. My being a heavy ratepayer teaches the need of the strictest economy in the use of public money. I may also state that I have always taken an active part in everything pertaining to the benefit of Porth and district, both charitable and social. My sympathies have always been with the working men and as an employer of labour, I have act'd on the principle of every man receiving sufficient to maintain himself and family in social comfort. I will not enumerate a long list of promises, but would, if elected, always be prepared to further the interest of Katepayers. I have ample time for the careful discharge of public duties, and the making of a record attendance. In a community like ours, the highest form of self-interest is attained b, studing the interests of others-my interests would be yours, and yours, mine. If jou think me worthy of being one of your representatives, I shall esteem it a great honour, which I shall always endeavour to deserve. iru-ting to receive your support, I remain, ladies & gentlemen. Yours obediently, JOSEPH BROOKS. Cymmer Villa, Porth. 4651 RHONDDA URBAN DISTRICT COUNCIL j ELECTION. WARD NO. 2. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, At the urgent request of a large number of Electors in this Ward, I have consented to become a Candidate for one of the three seats allotted to us under the new arrangement. Remembering the large number of votes recorded in my favour two years ago when contesting a seat in this district, and believing it is my duty to serve the public according 11 the measure of my ability, I am again soliciting your favours in the approaching El iection. I have lived in this Ward for upwards of 32 years, and know its requirements perfectly. As one who worked underground for over 14 years, my sympathy is fully with the workmen, and as one who was born and bred on a collier's hearth, I know his cry and aspiration. and will neither hesitate nor be ashamed, if elected, to advocatd the claims of all to equal treatment in the Council. Without doubt Cwmpark and I reorky have been sadly neglected in the past. The residents in the lower part of Treorky are living in con- stant danger and fright from floods, accumula- tion of water before the doors, deficient drains, refuse swept by the storms, seemingly without any effort to remedy this deplorab'e state of things. Back houses of this Ward are without decent streets, without pavements, without light, not- withstanding they pay rates equally with others, and especially the streets along which crowds pass into their places of worship on weekdays and Sundays being in such a condition as to be a disgrace and an injustice to those honest and industrious ratepayers. I shall endeavour to secure the practical attention of the Council to this Ward as well as others in the District. My education and experience will enable me to render intelligent service on the Gas and 1 Water Committee, which undertaking has lately been transferred to the Council; as well as other important Commi tees requiring ex- perience and skill If elected, by your help and will, to a seat. I shall always be ready to listen to your grievances and convey the same to the Council, and to do my duty honestly, faithfully, and conscientiously. Soliciting your help and vote on the day of the poll Mztrcli ::7th, I remain, Your obedient servant, JOHN SAMUEL. March 17th, 1899. 4667 RHONDDA URBAN DISTRICT COUNCIL. WARD NO. 8. TO THE ELECTORS. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN. i-J On March 27th, 1899, you will be called upon to elect representatives to serve on the Rhondda Urban District Council, and in response to an earnest request of a representa- tive and influential deputation of workmen and tradesmen, I beg to offer myself as a Candidate for a seat in this Ward. The redistribution of wards has afforded the Electors of the lower portion of our Wards an opportunity of electIng a direct representative on the Council. The 10.600 inhabitants of Hafod, Britannia, and Porth surely deserve absolute and direct representation. We have our rights to guard, and improvements to enhance, which, without special knowledge of the needs of the district are liable to be perversed. Being a heavy ratepayer in the Ward, your interests are identical with those of my own. I am an advanced Economist, and this portion of the Council's work will receive mv un- j swerving attention; b-aring in mind that economy does not consist iu what we spend, but what wo get for our raonny. Being born at Porth, and having worked and spent my life in your midst, I am well known to you all, hence will not enter into details. I am about retiring fr:,m business, and will have my whole time to place at your disposal and the work of the Council. During the campaign I shall not attempt at any rhetoric display, but I trust that my small services for some years' standing, as treasurer to the Workmen's Committee of the Hafod and Coedcae Collieries, will speak louder than words. Thousands of pounds passed through my hands during the recent unfortunate strike. If elected I promise to serve you faithfully, watch your interests, plead your cause, advocate your claims, and do all that is con- sistent towards protecting the safety of the public. I beg to remain, Ladies and Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, THOMAS REES. Britannia Inn, Britannia, Porth. 4644 RHONDDA URBAN DISTRICT COUNCIL ELECTION, 1899. TO THE ELECTORS OF WARD NO. 2. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, Having been invited by a large section of the electors, on more than one occasion, to become a Candidate for a seat in the above Council, I now beg to place myself and services unreservedly at your disposal as a Candidate in the present Election. It is well known that I am one of the largest Ratepayers in the District, which is in itself an assurance that, if elected, I will do my utmost to save unnecessary expenses, while at the same time [ shall not be backward in advocating and supporting all measures essentially progressive. Among questions affecting local interest, no the least are those of our Streets and Drains and, in the event above-mentioned, I shall do all I possibly can towards their improvement and completion. I have resided in yonr milist for over 30 years, being in a large way of business, and representing all classes in the community. In all Labour Disputes I may unboastingly venture to say that I have been proved (and not found wanting) to be a friend of the working man, which tends to show that he is entitled to my sympathies in the future. b-tli as a private individual and as representing his interests on the Council, if so be I am elected. Trusting you will not withhold from me your support. I remain, Ladies and Gentleman. Yours most ob^dientlv, DAVID MORGAN.

I RHONDDA URBAN DISTRICT COUNCIL ELECTION, 1899. TO THE ELECTORS OF TREALAW AND TONYPANDY. FELLOW ELECTORS, Jt* I beg to tender yon mv very sincere thanks for my unopposed return to the District Council. 1 can enly say that it will be my sincere effort to do the best for the Ward, and likewise make these great Rhonddas of ours what they should be in every detail of sound administration. I fully recognise the great responsibility of the position and the necessity of assisting a progressive spirit in its government. As a large ratepayer myself, you may rest assured that it shall be my maxim to further efficiency with absolute regard to economy. Again thanking you, Believe me, Yours obediently, J. D. WILLIAMS. Clydach Court. 4670 RHONDDA URBAN DISTRICT COUNCIL ELECTION. TO THE ELECTORS OF No. 1 WARD. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN. At the request of a large number of the electors, I have allowed myself to be nominateca as a candidate for a seat on the above Council at the forthcoming election. I may say I am well-known to y.)u, having lived in the Ward for upwards of 30 years, during which period I h :ve taken a keen and active interest in all Parochial matters. I intend holding public meetings throughout the Ward before the day of the election when I will explain to you my views upon matters that are of interest to you in the above Ward. If elected, it will be my constant endeavour to serve you faithfully and straightforwardly. I believe in efficiency with economy. I am, ladies and gentlemen, Your obfdient servant, WILLIAM JEFFREYS, 158, Bute St., Treherbert, March 14, 1899. 4662 RHONDDA URBAN DISTRICT COUNCIL ELECTION. TO TS" ELECTORS OF NO. 3 WAKD. XADIES AND GENTLEMEN, J On the 27th of this month it will be your duty to elect three representatives for the above Ward on the District Council. On the invitation of a large number of Electors in the Ward, I have consented to become a Candidate at the coming Election. I 'm well known to the great majority of you as I ha e bt'en born and bred in the Ward, and should therefore, be well aware of the needs of this particular District. If you do me the honour of electing me as one of your representatives for the No. 3 Ward on the Council, I shall use my utmost en- deavours and influence to effect the various improvements required in the Ward, and that as effectually and economically as possible. I am, Ladies and Gentlemen, Your obedient servant. DAVID LLEWELYN TREHARNE, Solicitor. Pentre House, Pentre, March 15th, 1899. 4668 RHONDDA UNBAN DISTRICT COUNCIL ELISCTION, 1899. TO THE ELECTORS OF NO. 4 WARD. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, JLj By the rearrangement of the Electoral Wards of the Rhondda, the district has now been divided inte ten Wards, with three Members to each Ward, making a total of 30 Members, instead of 15. This arrangement has brought about a General Election, which will take place on Monday, March the 27th next, when you will be called upon to choose three persons to servo you on the Council, to see that your rates are exoended in a proper manner, and that the affairs of these ever increasing valleys are ad- ministered in an efficient and economic way. A large number of influential electors have repeatedly pressed upon me to allow myself to be nominated as a Candidate for a seat on the Council, they being of the opinion that, having time and qualifications at my disposal, I would make a fit and proper person to represent this Ward. I have therefore decided to enter the arena, and beg to place myself entirely in your hands. I am a native of the parish, and have spent most of my time in this Ward. I have a thorough knowledge of engineering, and have qualified as a draughtsman, qualifications in- dispensable to the proper fulfilling of the duties of a District Councillor. I am also one of the heaviest ratepayers in the Ward, consequently, my sympathies are naturally with the heavily laden tax-payer. I have no connections which will in any way interfere with my carrying out the duties in an independent manner. I therefore appeal for your sympathy and votes, and promise, if elected, to devote myself to the duties with such energy that will repay you for the confidence placed in me. The Polling will take place at the Gelli and Bodringallt Schools. I beg to remain, Ladies and Gentlemen, Yours obediently, EVAN MORGAN. Gelligaled Hotel, Ystrad-Rhondda, March 16th, 1899. 4666 DISTRICT COUNCIL ELECTION. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE TRALLWN WARD. ADIES AND GENTLEMEN, The period for which you elected me as one of your representatives on the District Council will shortly expire, and I again beg to' solicit a renewal of your confidence During the four years I have represented you I have endeavoured, to the best of my ability, to do what I considered best for the interest of the Ward. I am abirut the hoaviest individual ratepayer in the Ward, and this being so it is hardly necessary for me to point out that our interests are identical. You are doubtless aware that I have fought and will continue to fight against the unequal Assessments of House Property in general, which places our district at a disadvantage in having to pay more t'lan our fair proportion of the rates. There is also another and all-important feature in this election, and one which each and every Elector should feel vitally concerned in. namely, the promotion of the Cardiff Railway Bill. My views on this matter are well kuowu to you, oud as the action of each Elector will, in a very decided manner, bear upon this question, I venture t. appeal to you to give me your votes. Yours faithfully, WAi KIN WILLIAMS. CAERPHILLY URBAN DISTRICT COUNCIL ELECTION. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE TOWN WARD. [ADIES /5ND GENTLEMEN, j 1 beg to offer a continuation of mv services. I trust that the explanations given by me at the public meeting on Monday night last, have removed t he erroneous impressions entertained by some of the electors concerning the gas and the water questions. I have had the pleasure of being assured, frequently, that, no one has questioned the hones y (Ii mv intentions or my devotion to the duties of tli* position. I now venture to hope that in the vot« of next Monday. I shall find an acknowledgement that my efforts were not ill-direr :teo. ■Kewii» ntd known to nearly all of you, I venture to think hat promises from me are unnecessary.
