Nanaimo, Aug. 18.—H. F. Clem-

servative Convention as the candi-
date for Comox-Atlin in the Federal
election. S. M. Newton of Prince
Rupert, the chosen candidate from
the north, was defeated, owing,
it is said, to the delegates from
the south being opposed to the
wishes of the delegates from the
north. Three ballots were taken
and resulted as follows: First—
Clements 20, Newton 19, Bates 12.
Secord—Clements 21, Newton 19,
Bates 11. Bates was dropped on
the third ballot, the result of which
