It had been taken for granted that the former 1 candidate, Mr. W. W. Jenkins, and a new colleague, Mr. 0 S. S. Hessian, had been slated for the contest and these ,_ gentlemen had been in actual training for the big event Jenkins and Hessian had cleared their throats to thank the electors for the honour so suddenly and unexpectedly thrust upon them, the unexpected happened with a jerk. Mr. McCourt was nominated and before the unsophisticat- ed electors who were not in the know had recovered their breath, Mr. Horatio Nelson was also proposed. It was evident from the applause which greeted these nom a before them is that they are experienced, although' un~ sl expenditure for the whole country of $326,000. while the inated, with or without their permission, to represent the iusonie was only $200,000 making it necessary to dravz vatious wards nt the forthcoming convention- $126,000 from the reserve accumulated in the early months.
