Even at this writing it is impossible to say was the exact result of thursday a 10 5 and to is usual on such occasions a a us tuber of returns which have to be prised. Or.

Several Ether changes have to be made not however materially affecting the count a published yesterday morning. The gov. Will probably have Twenty five of a there would team to be no further doubt of Marque be for which or Wib Sou has been returned although by an uncomfortably car Tow majority. Manitoba s representation in the next parliament will not differ in its political co from that of the two preceding ones. Full returns for Selkirk Aie not yen in but it is certain that or. Daly s majority will be up in the Hun. 4 reds. Long Vay in the direction of closer come Ercill relations with the United states. But the records of the put up by the Liberal Leader were More than the people could stand. Or. Martin waa literally loaded Down with acts of the Gross end corruption and dishonesty or. Campbell was known As Bis chief apologist and defender. Both had Stul tidied themselves past All excuse on the question of the Hudson Bay railway. But worse than this in a sense both stood for those practices which go to degrade Public life and to the profession of politics an the Only Dominion Issue at infamous one. Stake waa lost sight of to a Large extent both in Selkirk and Winnipeg in the More important Issue involved in the candidature of men who have done so much to lower the Standard of Public morality in this province and actually to defy the moral sentiment of the Community. The electors could Nob strata their eyes co this phase of the contest and it weighed most heavily with them. Hundreds of liberals in the two constituencies who would Nobby any act of theirs express e Ven an indirect approval of the conduct of those men and their associates either voted for Tho conservative candidates or refrained from voting. Their defeat by majorities of four and five Hun dred can Only be z taken to Meitzu thab the record of Tae Greenway government has wrecked Tho party to which it owes its Exia Tenco. The influence of that record has extended to Marquette where it qua Nob directly challenged and almost succeeded in drag Ging Down or. Watson in the general ruin. That is what or. Greenway and or. Mar tin and their colleague ii in the government and supporters in the House have done for the Liberal party of Manitoba. And in return for in they Aro repudiated by the Best elements in Bhat party Ai Well a8 by the almost unanimous body of conserva Tives in Tho province. Had the free frees stood alone in its opposition to the iniquitous courses of the government it would have been none the less Earnest and determined but there is a pleasing satisfaction in the know ledge thab the policy it has pursued since the first Day in became apparent that the govern ment had departed from the lines on which it was elected has received the marked Pucho approval which in implied in the Chuhing majorities of Selkirk and Winnipeg. Those majorities aside from their Dominion significance Are an and emphatic condemnation of the Manitoba government and they were so intended. From a voter elsewhere because of that. The Protection the ballot is supposed to afford in As. Much needed there As in part of the it is Moro needed since the decision of the minister of Justice that mounted policemen Are entitled to the franchise. Civil servants Dominion employees and others More or Leas sub Job to government influence abound in the Terri tories to an unusual degree and one would think thab a sense of decency if nothing else would suggest to the Ottawa authorities the propriety of extending the ballot to Tho Terri tories. When those Long deferred amendments to the territorial Constitution Are being framed in will be in order to provide for the or. And mrs. Bowser. The inevitable outcome. Over two years ago the free paean warned the liberals of this province nothing but awaited them if they continued to give countenance to the men who compose the present local government. Ita advice pm to turn them out of Power and get in others with whom in was possible for Honor men to associate. At thab time this night easily have been done As there we better Cabinet material in the ranks than in the government it calf. Instead of doing this Tho members of the House joined with the government in endeavouring to crush the free press to Sillaco All Orosi Tion and to stifle the Public conscience. Every act of minute rial Ras laity was condoned and 4be government supporters in the House web on from bad to worse until they became thoroughly id enticed with and responsible for Load of political sins which is now them Down. They earned the worst elements of the party with them. The free press pointed out time and agon that their course Vas calculated to drive out Overy honest and self respecting Man an it and thus to ruin the party itself. This went unheeded indeed in was laughed at and openly and Rakosi conspicuous 3y despised. And what do we find now Tho province. In common with the rest of the dominion1 Kas parsed through an election contest. O to of Tho worst members of the government or.

Uuro Bab they will if pressed go go far As to admit Tho president of that railway company was himself no Issue or if not an Iague that he was at least a very influential Factor in id. To these May be added Tho further Assurance thab in All Manitoba elections. Federal or provincial the Hudson Bay railway will remain an until that Enterprise is put fairly on its feet and the people of the province see for themselves that it is shaping Success.

Our people find time in the midst of our Campaign to talk Street car matters and Dis cuss the proposed business tax. A body of consistent men Are striving hard to convince the people that it would be a Pood thing for them to take the management of the Street railway into their own hands. They have naturally considerable difficulty Jue now in making themselves heard above toe general clamor but they May get a More patient hearing within a week. In the mean time the argument before the arbitrators is Over and now the report of the arbitrators will to eagerly looked for.
