FRIDAY. MRIL 4, 1902.
West Huron,
There is, naturally, considerable talk
ea to who willsecure the nomination in
this riding, as successor 'to the lion. J.
Te Garrow. The difficulty that will
present itself at the convention is the
superetbunda.pt supply of first-class
men. Among the names currently
mentioned are the following:- Philip
Holt, W Proudfoot,Dan McGillicuddy,
Alex Saunders, Win Lane and M. G.
Oameron, of Godericb; James Snell, of
Hullett ; Alex Stuart, of West Wawa -
nosh ; Morgan Dalton, of Ashfield, and'
John T. Ourrie, of East Wawanosh.
Any one of these persons would make
it good, winning candidate. Whoever
eecures thenonsination will have the
good will and hearty support of the
Liberale in the riding, There will be no
division in the ranks, and a supporter
of the Ross administration will assure
edly be returned from this riding.
)111 .1e. McLean foir South Huron.
•
The Literate of South Huron have
nominated Mr McLean, of theSeaforth
Expositor as their candidate for -the
approaching electione, apd he. has ac-
cepted tbe same. No other name was
mentioned before the convention, which
was very largely attended on Satur-
day, notwithstanding the unfavorable
weather.
Mr McLean is the strongest candid-
ate that could have been selected. He
is thoroly well informed on all the pub-
lic issues, and able to present them in a
clear and forcible manner.
Once a ridinges lost to the enemy it
le not easy to win Whack, and Mr Mcs
Lean has a hard task before him. It is
not an impossible task,hoivever. South
Huron was so long in the Liberal ranks
that our Wanda becalm a 1 ttle lax,due
to over cot fdence. But w' th greed or-
ganization, persistent work, a good
cause, and ewe .uieet. of candidates,
South Huron thould agaitecorne within
the Liberal lines.
