The Union Government was sustained in Monday's polling by a substantial ma- jority. l'he only members of the Govern- ment defeated were lik,ndin and Sevigny, the former Nationalist representatives m the Borden Cabinet. The majorities in most cases were very large, owing to the sharp division of opinion on the conscrip- tion Issue. Ontario and the West went almost solidly for the Government, while Quebec and the Maritime Provinces gave Laurier strong support.
