The latest returns give the Liberals, forty seats, Con- servatives, five and Social Demo- crats one. Elections in The Pas, Grand Rapids and Churchill and Nelson were deferred, and these constituencies will likely add to the Government's majority. The unparalleled character of the landslide in Manitoba is shown by the fact that the standing of the par- legislature last May, 'when the Roblin Government re- signed, was twenty-eight Conserva- tives as against twenty-one Liber; als. 4 Furthermore, every member of the Norris Cabinet was returned to pow- er with majorities which were great- ly in¢reased over those of July. 1914.
