TURN OF THE TIDE.

Cons DERING that election day io the first district of Queen’s County wasa fine harvest day, the vote polled was a large ore. It was emaller than that polled atthe general election by only one hundred and seventy- ihree,— the total the general election having teen 1482, and the total vote of yesterday 1309. ifthe full voting etrength of dhe district had been polled, it is probable that the Opposition candi- late would have had a larger majority ; for we may be sure that all those who had axes to grind on the Federal stone, as well as on the Provincia! stone, came out to vote for the Governmen( candidate, while some who disapprove of the actions, but had no such personal induce~

years ago, were Government supporters. What Premier Farquharson will do about it remains tobe seen. He is in a very delicate position. By a bare majority of his party he was selected to be leader of the Government party in this provinve. There was a dieponition on the part of the Conservatives togive hima fair chance. Bat his chosen bearer has been defeated in a district which is widely known as the sirongueld of Liberalism. In these circumstancee Premier Farquharson is bound to consider very carefully whether he ought to continue to held the reins of

power.

When the result of the bye-election in the First District of Prince County was announced, we suppoved that the honour of being the firet district to come out from among those representatives to support the Liberal Administration wou d be Fort Augustus. But it appears that Fort Augustus muat remain content with “ Mr. Speaker,” who cannot open his mouth in its behalf. Not until they are forced to do so, will our Liberals consent that Fort Augustus shal! be fully represented in the Legislature.

In the meantime, the honor has fallen to New London and Cra- paud. We heartily congratulate the

First District of Queen’s County on the vote of yesterday apd the emphatic pro- test which its electors have made against the bad Government which heaped taxation aod debt upon this Province,
