in the Running; Nice things said

(Special to The News via G '
Ottawa, August 6.—-At the close of the first day of the
National Liberal convention, the leadership is still very much in
doubt. There is every indication that the convention has been |
ell organized and everything ran smoothly from the first.

The new leader will be chosen Thursday by vote of the con-
ention. Premier Martin of Regina appears to be the favorite.
Should Martin decline to run, it is believed the contest will be
between W. S&S. Fielding, George P. Graham and W. L. Mackenzie.
King. The most intense interest is being taken in the matter of
leadership as on the wisdom of the choice depends to a large
extent the future success of the party.

Premier Oliver of British Columbia in addressing the con-
vention predicts that the result of the convention would be far
reaching. Canadians had fought overseas, he said, but freedom
would not be won until selfishness was eliminated and profiteer-
ing stopped.

There are two representatives from Prince Rupert at the
convention. They are Frank Mobley, M. P. P. for Atlin, and Fred
Dawson. British Columbia is well represented and Hon. John
Oliver is listened to with great respect, it being recognized that
he is the strongest leader British Columbia has ever had.
