Hanson; Baxter Fails to Offset Impression Made By Pattulld STEWART, July 16: With the approach of July 28, interest in the impending election is fast reaching fever heat in Stewart and, as a topic for street-corner conversation, the respective merits of Messrs. Hanson and iBrady have ousted every other question of the day. Even mining development and the projected Peace River outlet,iwhich mean so much in the workaday life of Stewart, have been relegated to the background, and one can no more raise a discussion on these two topics than he can upon the pursuit of astronomy by the ancient 0 Chaldaeans, or what have you. To the interested,- yet unbiased, observer, it Is a curious fact that about a month ago It was conceded, absolutely by the Conservatives and reluctantly by the Liberals, that Mr. Brady would be returned, but now the situation seems to be reversed. Liberals are now enthusiastic in their assertions that Olof Hanson will be Skeena's next member, and, though the Conservatives aro maintaining a stoic front in favor of Mr. Brsdj ye Jt cannot be denied that-fltty are-VorrlcdJ v-- Messrs. Patull htt parson did much to .advahccJ the Liberal cause in Stewart when they visited here two weeks ago, and, though the Conservatives sought to recover lost ground by sending In T. S. Baxter, it must be admitted that Mr. Baxter did not secure the desired results. True, he made a neat speech' arid was given,, every Mtnlioa. 'hyj fairly large audience, but the en thuslasm was lacking and no-one was particularly swung to the Tory cause by the maze of figures in which Mr. Baxter lost his abdience and himself both. Anyone can quote statistics, .and Stewart electors know It. The big factor In the sudden swing to the Liberal candidate is, however, not atributable to any local cause but to the reports In coming from other sections of the riding which seem to favor Mr. Hanson In nearly all cases. No very favorable reports for Mr. Brady have come to hand, and the Infer-1 ence Is that the Conservative ma- , chine is either broken or they have no such favorable reports to make. I j NATURAL CAUSES Following a post-mortem examination conducted by a physician, Coroner O. L.

The gov when the Peers, by a vote of 163 to 36, reinstated in the Coal Mine bill a clause providing for 90 hours of work in the mines spread over two weeks instead of a straight 45-hour week as the government wishes. Incidentally, the Liberal Parliamentary group has decided that, In future divisions, they will not hesitate to vote against the Labor government. The Daily Herald, Labor organ, today launched an anti-Lords campaign as a consequence of the repeated refusal of the House of Lords to pass the Coal Mine bill in the original form including a seven-and-a-half hour working day. The Peers vs. the People" is the Issue upon which the Labor government will probably seek to wage the next election campaign a campaign which the political commentators believe will be held before the end of ".the year.

And now we have all the bankers and financiers in the Old Country uniting in a manifesto to all the political parties in England urging that Imperial preferential trade Is the only salvation for Great Britain.
