The Liberals of Souris have decid- ed to oder no Opposition to the elec- tion oi Hon." Joan McLean nna inn

colleague, Mr. Kic‘rham. Ii we re~ member riglitly it has been the prac- tice to allow the members oi a new Government to bc returned without opposition, as was done in the cast of the Borden Government recently and in the case of the Hazen Govern- ment in New Brunswick in 1908, not to cite further instances. True, these were after generiil elections in both cases.

. But is it worth while to oppose the' return ol Dr. Dewar in Fort Angus-{ tus, or of Prof. MacPhail in Beliast,i seeing that they were so recently el- ected by large majorities? Mr. Irving,l who is u representative farmer, and who was independent enough to walk out of the House on more than one?

THE I‘ll0VIN (`lAl. ELECTION.

The ,,-eneral election now near at

hand promises to be an interesting onc. The electorate has for a good many years been pretty equally divid- ed between the two parties, both ini federal and provincial nilairs. At present' we send two Conservatives- and two Liberals to the House Commons, while the local Assembly,| just now dissolved, had a Liberal:

ninjority of two until the recent by-L elections transferred that majority to the C'onser\’zitive sidc. Thus far the indications would be that the comiing` contest might be a fairly equal one with somewhat uncertain chances.

No doubt the defeat of thc Lauri

Government at Ottawa and the down 5 fall of the Palnn;-r Admlnistrationl

here has depressed t_he Liberal iorcesl

somewhat and has proportionately; ad\'.".nci-ii the hopes and confidence of

the Corrs:-r\'ilti\'cs. There is also'tli ,V fact that a strung Cousei'\'ati\'e Gov l ernment has been formed by Premier Mathicson, which may reasonably
