The Liberals of East Huron have an excellent chance between now and the `list of September to do effective work whereby the riding may be redeemed. East Huron should be represented at Ottawa by a Liberal and with proper organization and every Liberal doing his share of the work in the campaign there should be no, difficulty in redeem- ing the riding. At Brussels on Friday last Mr. Arch. Hislop was given the tinaniinrius nomination as the Liberal candidate. lVIr. }Estop is well posted on the political questions of the day. He represented East Huron for three terms in the Ontario Legislature and at the last Dominion election was de- feated by the late member, Dr. Chis- holm by only 83 votes. Mr. Hislop will make an excellent representative for East Huron and the Liberals should do all in their power to secure his elec- tion. In the 1908 election sufficient Liberal votes were left unpolled to have changed the result in the riding. Let the friends of M'r. Hislop in every part of the riding see that every favor- able vote is polled and there is no doubt the fight will have a successful con- clusion on the evening of September 21st.
