It is the day that electors of the Skeena riding will combine with voters across the country to select the man of their choice and hence the 26th par- ‘iament of Canada, be it one with a majority or not, The Daily News makes no > attempt _ to advise the voter in this area how he or she should vote. We do, however, ask that.each and every. gible to vote make an effort to do so.

Some opposition is inevitable,’ and this is’ good; as long as there is power to keep the. government of Canada and its economy on.a’sound basis.
