tinn

phnnse
a
successor
to
recently
appointed

in

therefore,
be

un-1
less
an
Independent
should
enter
the
field.
It
Is
expected,
however,
that
Dr.
Alward
will
receive
an
acclamation.
The
Liberals,
in
deciding
riot
to
place
a
candidate
in
the
field,
accepted
a
recommendation
from
a
special
committee
to
that
effect.
This
committee
recommended
against
a
Liberal
nomination
on
the
grounds,
first,
that
the
voters'
list
for
the
riding
whs
far
from
complete,
and
would
not
represent
a
true
expression
of
public
opinion;
second,
that
nomination
day
com
ing
Just
before
the
holiday
season
and
election
day
immediately
after
made
it
difficult
to
conduct
a
cam
paign;
third,
that
efforts
should
be
devoted
to
relieving
unemployment
rather
than
conducting
election
campaigns,
and
fourth,
that
a
general
election
would
be
held
shortly
in
any
case.
The
following
was
the
exact
wording
of
the
reasons
upon
which
the
inadvisabllity
of
a
Liberal
no
mlnatlon
were
based:
'l.The
government
should
have
i
held
a
court
of
revision
of
the
voters'
list,
as
provided
for
in
Section
15,
sub-section
3,
of
the
Provincial
Elections
Act,
before
calling
this
bv-electlon.
There
are
not
only
two
hundred
fewer
names
on
the
list
than
in
1928,
but
1700
fewer
than
on
the
list
used
In
the
recent
Domln
Ion
Election.
In
the
Peec&Rlver
area
of
this
riding
there
are
only
1223
names
on
the
present
list,
as
com
nared
with
some
2500
on
the
Fed
eral
list.
Thus
a
large
portion
or
tne
electorate
is
disfranchised.

The
holding
of
-an
election
covering
the
holiday
season
in
a
district
so
far
flung
as
Fort
George,
with
Its
difficulties
of
transport,
precludes
the
possibility
of
even
reasonably
covering
the
district,

our
opinion
the

was
