'The
tremendous
victory
of
G.
G.
McGeer
MX.A.
over
Mayor
L.
D.
Taylor
in
the
civic
contest
at
Vancouver
was
much
greater
than
most
people
expected.
While
it
was
realized,
that
much
enthusiasm
was
being
shown
for
the
candidate
of
action,
it
was
thought
that
other
influences
would
to
a
considerable
extent
offset
that.
We
have
many
times
heard
it
said
that
no
election
could
he
won
without
the
weight'of
the
underworld
on
the
winning
fide.
The
present
election
may
have
proved
this
to
be
.incorrect.
McGeer
rallied
to
his
support
the
greater
part
of
the
church
influence,
which
is
popularly
supposed
to
be
nil,
and
he
won
with
a
majority
so
great
that
it
is"astound-mg.
While
McGeer
promised
;a
police
investigation
and
a
generally
decent
city,
3ie
also
promised
financial
aid
in
arranging
a
lower
rate
of
interest
on
city
bonds
and
other
reforms.-Now
that
he
is
given
an
executive
position
for
tefirsttime
it
will
be
very
interesting
to
see
how
he
measures
up.
If
he
makes
good
he
will
be
able
to
command
al-Jiiost
any
position
in
the
gif

the
people.
