Selected Candidate for Liberal and Reform Party
Ladies and gentlemen I ask for your support at the upcoming election as the Selected Candidate. I was elected with a large majority three years ago and have supported Mr. Carruthers government and helped pass important laws such as The Liquor Act The Gambling Act Education Free and the North Coast Railway Act. I oppose tampering with these Acts as they serve the state's best interests. The government has overseen iron production from native ores and begun locomotive construction, water works, and closer settlement projects. In parliament they promise further useful legislation including tax reductions by ending income tax on personal earnings and improving Old Age Pension and thrift annuities. I claim an active role in proceedings and local concerns and pledge the same conduct if returned. I may defend Parliament when needed and, having helped pass measures, would likely defend them more sympathetically than those who did not participate. Your obedient servant J H Young
