This is the only alteration made in this Go. and the report will be presented to the House that way and no doubt carried. This rename does not effect the political phase of the Ridiugs. North Huron will be composed of Ash- field, West and Beet Wirwanosh. Blyth, Morris, Wingham, Turnberry, Wroxeter and Howick, giving an estimated Conser- vative m .jnrity of over 200.

Bayfield, Hay, Hensel', Tuoker- emiIh, Uaborne, Exeter and Stephen, from which a Conservative may count on election by a m.juriiy of about 300. T bus the Liberals of Huron will be in bbe minority in repreeeutativee wbile possessing the mejoriby of votes if equit- ably divided. , We will part company very reluctantly with the stalwarts of Howiok, Turnberry, Wroxeter end Morris in the hope that the separation will nut exist very long. New nominating conventions will have to be held to the North and Centre rid- ings owing to the territory introduced and the severing of old organizations, This gerrymander may prove a mill round the nook of the promoters. It proves the fallacy of the law permitting Such changes to be made by any one party. A Commission of Judged should do this work and thereby wipe out the pronounced partisanship of any such possibilities arising front the greed' of party politioians. CHUILCII (711131158 Rev. A.0.
