MAKE ATTEMPTS TO GERRYMANDER WESTERN ONTARIO Government is Trying to Jockey Opposition Parties Out of Several Seats A special dispatch from Ottawa to the London Advertiser in refer­ ring to the proposed redistribution for federal purposes says: Ottawa—Liberals in the House, earing a government attempt to de­ stroy several Liberal seats through redistribution, are fighting in com­ mittee the bill as now constituted, but unless efforts of the opposition are redoubled, at least three and possibly five, Liberal and opposition seats in Western Ontario alone will be wiped out of existence by gerry­ mander. In their place the Conser­ vatives hope to create five, what they hope to be Tory ridings. From discussion in committee it is evident that the Conservatives aim to eliminate a Liberal ..by combining South Huron and South Perth, both of which are traditional Liberal. An opposition seat is to by that amal­ gamation of South Grey, for which Agnes Macphail now sits, and South Bruce held by Dr. W. A. Hall, a Lib­ eral By uniting North and South Oxford, the Tories hope to eliminate the Liberal seat in the south trough the heavy Conservative vote in the north, which includes Woodstock city. Eastern Ontario Also" In Eastern Ontario th'ey would abolish one of the two Ottawa seats, both of which are Liberal, although it is difficult to justify this in face of the fact that dual seats in Halifax Prince Edward Island, all of which are Tory, are left intact. Conserva­ tive members of that committee have designs also on Glengarry with its traditional Liberal representation. By combining the riding with Stor­ mont with its 'predominating Tory vote, they hope a Conservative seat will be created. The proposed new seats which the Government hopes will be safely Tory are Toronto two, Centre York, Welland and Nippissing. By fur­ ther manipulation it is hoped to make other seats as safely Conser­ vative as they can be made so on paper. Inequalities in Western Ontario How the Conservatives can justify splitting South Huron with 22,518 population, purely rural, Oxford N. with 25,244, Oxford South with 22,- 581, Russell with 43,831 and Pres­ cott 24,596, and leave Brant with only 21,202 and Haldimaud with 21,428 as two separate seats, it is hard to understand. By putting the two Oxford together, a riding with 48,000 population will result, while Haldimand and Brant together can muster less than 43,000. In no place is the gerrymander more in evidence than in the plan for the Hurons. Here the hand of George Spotton. Conservative mem­ ber for North Huron, is seen. It is Mr. Sipotton’s boast often heard at Ottawa that lie could get the con­ vention in his constituency for the Tories, Progressives or Liberals. Carving up the Hurons Under the plan proposed for Hur­ on and South Perth, Mr. Spotton wo.uld reach over and take into North Huron.’ Stanley Township. Which, although it gave William Golding a 28 majority in the South Huron by-election, is normally Con­ servative. He would take, too. Clin­ ton, with its Tory (Majority of 155, Goderich Township (Conservative) and Hullett Township. But he would leave McKillop Township, which lies beside Stanley Township, in the south. Of course McKillop has a heavy Liberal majority, voting 687 to 275 in the by-election. Under this plan the population of North Huron would be as follows: At present ............................. 22,662 Clinton (added) ................... 1,789 Goderich (added) ................ 1,645 Hullett (added) ................. 1,S84 Stanley (added) ................... 1,981 Total ........................... 29,960 South Perth and South Huron would have a population of 3 4,979. A much fairer distribution sug­ gested to the committee, but which Mr. Spotton frowns upon would place the townships of McKillop Goderich and Hullett and the towns of Clinton and Seaforth in North Huron. This would give North Hur­ on a population of 31,5 39 a'hd South Huron and Perth 31,611. Prepared A stage manager was rehearsing a crowd scene for a new play. After he had directed the men who had been eslected for the scene he told them to report at the theatre that evening,’ adding: “This scene takes place in Russia, and I want all you fellows in fur overcoats.” “But I haven’t got a fur overcoat sad one of the actors. “That’s not my business,” replied the stage manager. “If you’re not dressed for Russia I won’t let you go on.” The actor arrived at the theatre that night—but without a fur coat, “Didn’t I tell you I wouldn’t let you go on unless you were dressed for Russia?” demanded the stage manager. “But I’ve got on two suits of un­ derwear,” protested the actor.
