The game of the conservatives, on election day, was to arrest men on | | suspicion of wrong-doing and to put [them out of the way for a certain time, At Winnipeg the Howell {Campbell assault case was the out- come of an arrest for which there was | Ino justification. A respectable man | { was locked up and though his friends | offered bail in any amount he was | kept in the provincial jail by order | {of the attorney-general and herded | [ith the convicts.
