The Government candidates bad a better case to present than the Conservatives and the presentation itself was better, The Hepburn government had balanced the budget; there had been passed back to the -municipalities the eyuivaleut of one mill on the tax papers, and it had beeu done in such a way that the bounty reached the people who pay taxes; the government has as- sumed the payment of pensions and road taxes anti there had been u sham reduction in the price of auteneihile licensee.

Uune uneanut- edly was ,the size of the majorttY with. which Alex, L. Elliott was elected in Petei'oorough, senting to Queen's Park the nrst l.luerad elected to the Legislature from that city sinoe 1914. The quietness which ,prevailed there bfeore the election :made it unusually impossible to get a tine on the probable result and the ex- tent of ,the support given the Liber- al candidate certainly surprised his politica! opponents and probable same of his own workers, It was an outstanding victory, Otherwise Central Ontario d:c1 about ,what independent prophets ,predicted, with the exception o•f On- tario where it was expected that the labor vote In Oshawa would give the seat so :long held by W. E. N, Sinclair to the Conservatives. On the contnary the riding remained In the Liberal column, So slid Durham where the retire- ment of the veteran Liberal :mem- ber W. J. .Bagg wag thought to favor .the Conservative chances but where Cecil G, Mercer, Liberal standard-bearer, held the riding riding against Milton J, Elliott. One at the hottest lights of the entire campaign was in Victoria and Haliburton where the veteran Liberal, William Newnan was faced by Leaie Frost, brother of the Con- servative provincial campaign chair. man. The battle had been a hammer -and -tongs affair from the start and the Conservative claims of victory were vindicated when the returns cane in, In Northum- berland H, N.
