The Election Yesterday. |

Lu ioble district of Belfast has spoken The verdict which was obtain- ed in LISS2 1 that district against the Liberal-( servative Goverument by

false cries, has now been reversed by au i

overwhelming majority. The significance |

of this contest cannot he overestimated.

It demonstrates 10 the most uumistake- able manner that the new strength gained by the Opposition in the Local House by t vet Creveral Election was secured false suspicions

and of honest adm he Grits, according

of their orgaus a 1 orators, went into the contes with great advantages 10 their favor. Mr. Martin, the Liberal (Conservative candidate, was, according |

same way, but in argument, in eloquence, in veracious statements, and in informa- tion on public questions, the Grit orators are, according to their own claims, head aud shoulders over their oppovents. What unspeakable nonsense to compare the Provincial Secretary la persuasivepess to ex-Governor Laird; or the Hon. Mr. Prowse to that great and good man, ex- Speaker Beer; or the Commissioner of

Public Works to the member for West

River! Not only, according to their own pretensions, had the Grits the advantage in the superiori‘y of their oratory, but also in the number of their orators. In addition to these already named, the brilliant senior member for Belfast, Mr. D>. C. Martin, electrified many of the meetings by his fervid addresses. Mr. Banverman Warburton, the Grit seer, convinced many electors by the irresis- tible logic of his books. Mr. Donald Allan McDonald, of Pisquid, the rejected of Fort Augustus, gave full particular- of his own political career. Mr. Peter McCourt worked away at one eud of the politico-religious dirt heap, while his master worked with equal dilligence at the other end.

men residing in the district and outside of it to pull the wires, manufacture “yarns,” and circulate them industrious- ly. With Messrs. John F. Robertson, Roderick Munn, and John McEachern to invent graveyard stories and potatoe and flauvel ‘tyarns,” a party might well be confident of success.

Inthe use of “human devices,” Mr. i. H. Davies also lent a prominent hand. ‘To help his friends in the Local Opposition he sent a telegram from Ottawa, which, if not directly false, was intended to convey a false impression. He will, no doubt, when called in ques- tion for the contents of this telegram, plead that it referred to the answer he received from Sir Hector Langevin a week before. any reputation lefg for truth telling it is probable that Mr. MeBfillan’s vote was increased by the use which was made of this false aud deceptive telegram.

(Jreat things were also expected from another source. Mr. Malcolm McFad- yen, the unqualified member for Murray Harbor, was brought into the district to present to the electors a true picture of the present Government. He described himself as “a man of few words but well ordered.” Everyone terrible picture of toryism from which all would recoil with a shudder. Instead of

this Mr. MeFadyen admitted that if the!

Grits were in power for the last four years he did not believe that they cou!d have managed affairs any better

than the present Government have done. |

In fact he bad uo complaint to make against the Government, but that they had repealed the Assessment Act. The

» a } 1 i Ms ae >» ? 7 7 . ¥ . . . Provincial Secretary very aptly cora- | jpg a pilgrimage pared Mr. MeFadyen to the prophet who | Provancher of Quebec. |

was brought by Balak to curse the chil- | drev of Israel. Instead of cursing, he | lifted up bis voice and blessed them. | Mr. Ferguson might have followed the analogy alittle further. In Scripture | History, there is uo further mention made of the disobedieut prophet, save that in a subsequent battle Balaain the son } ot Peor was umonug the slain. We have! co doubt that in the first political battle | in the Murray Harbor District, Mr. | Malcolm McFadyen will meet the final | fute of Balaam, the son of Peor. |

The moral effect of this election will be very great. Three partial elections | been held since the General Klec- | tion of 1882, viz: in Murray Harbor, | Tignish and Belfast. All these con- | stituencies returned Grits at the General | Election, the aggregate Grit majority | beiug 510 votes. The partial elections | have rvversed this result, giviug the
