FORECAST
OF
BANKERS
in
A
forecast
of
bankers
throughout
the
Dominion
shows
that
they
think
the
country
will
again
go
Liberal
but
"Cvith
reduced
numbers.
It
must
be
remembered
in
considering
this
report
that
the
average
banker
is
Conservative
in
his
ideas
if
not
in
his
politic.
He
is
trained
to
think
conservatively.
He
is
careful
about
expressing
his
opinions
and
hates
exaggeration.
The
averarre
banker
mixes
with
neonle
who
are
conser
vative
and
his
opinions
are
based
largely
on
the
Conser-
ative
opinion
in
a
neighborhood.
The
advanced
liberal
ism
does
not
touch
him
much.
For
that
reason
the
opinion
p
bankers
will
be
biased
toward
the
Conservative
political
3ew.
'
Take
British
Columbia
as
an
instance.
According
to
the
;
report
of
the
bankers
there
will
not
be
a
Liberal
from
this
irovince
in
the
next
House.

when
those
who
have
studied
the
situation
ocally
know
that
there
is
every
probability
that
it
will
be
jiberal.
We
do
not
blame
them
for
this.
They
mix
with

kind
of
people
who
think
that
way.
We
are
keeping

list
of
forecasts
and
shall
be
much
interested
to
compare
it
with
the
actual
results
after

We
can
also
advise
the
bankers
who
have
made
the
forecast
right
how
that
they
are
going
to
be

in
several
cases
in

NUMBER
OF
CANDIDATES
KEEN
FOR
PRIZES
AND
WORKING
HARD
The
candidates
who
are
working
for
the
grand
prizes
in
the
Daily
News
Campaign
are
now
keen
to
win.
They
have
the
opportunity
of
canvassing
cither
in
the
city
or
outside
and
some
of
them
are
receiving
a
good
deal
of
encouragement.
One
difficulty
has
been
that
the
circulation
of
the
Daily
News
in
the
city
wat
already
almost
at
caturation
point.
Most
people
already
subscribe.
The
News
already
has
twice
as
many
paid
up
subscribers
right
in
the
city
as
any
other
paper.
The
reason
for
the
success
of
the
Daily
News
is
that
it
tries
to
give
to
the
people,
of
the
city
and
district
as
good
a
paper
as
possible.
It
is
the
intention
to
continue
to
improve
and
add
new
features
from
time
to
time.
Those
not
now
subscribers
or
any
who
would
like
to
encourage
one
of
the
candidates
by
paying
in
advance,
should
get
in
