London Oct, 27.-- Even though not {Tully 'edknizant of the conditions rul- ing Ontario, or political questions {involved in the general election, the jgeneral opinion seems to be that the jresult is what must be expected in 'almost any demoaratic community 'under the present stress. 'An English politician with a broad 'knowledge of Canadian affairs com- (menting upon the situation stated jthat it is doubtful If any existing igovernment could appeal to its coun- {try with any hope of being returned {He expressed tho opinion that the de- amocrats could not easily carry the United States and that there will Probably be an overturn fn Austra- lia.

'These developments, he believed, do not mean that the people want other governments particularly, so much they have a desire for a change , th being a reflection of un- rest which is sweeping the world.

The fact that Labor has twelve representatives in the new Legislature has renewed the courage of the local members and they were in jubiliant spirit yester- day. Further, there wis a uch larger attendance at .syesterday's eting than at any meeting of the y dufing the election campaign. While all were unanimously in fa- vor of close co-operation with the F.

It is strongly felt by leading Canadians here, that it should be a permanent site to enshrine Canadian war troph- ies, records, official maps, photo- graphs. war diaries, and everything which will accentuate the sacred Ca- nadian trust for all time, and espec- fally in.memory of the Honored Ca- nadian dead. No information has yet been re- ceived of the necessary Government appropriation, which must be passed before the Canadian Parliament rises, unless Canada is to appear in a most ungracious light before our allies. The same remark applies in a les- ser extent, to the Vimy Ridge project, which could also illustrate Canadian war efforts at Lens, and in the battle of Arras, MANGIN MAY NOT GO.

In addition to these contests. Hon W. L. Mackenzie King and Sir Henry Drayton were elected by acclamation in Prince Edward Island and King- {ston respectively, In North Ontario, the eigth vacant seat, W. J.

Actual polling will t&ke place in | Victoria, B.C.; Assiniboia, Sask.; Glengarry-Stormont, Ont.; Quebec East; and Carleton-Victoria, New| { Brunswick. - The chief interest in the elections centres around the fact that in the five seats there are a number of far- mer and soldier candidates. { In view of Ontario's results, it will be interesting to see how these can- didates succeed in the Federal con- tests. In two places soldiers are run- ning against farmers. | In Victoria, the Government nom- {inee is Hon. 8. F. Tolmie, the new {Minister of Agriculture.

The date set for the be- ginning of the revolt is said to be November 9th, and a cém- plete overthrow of the Govern- ment is being urged at meet- ings here.

Few could get within hearing {and many climbed to thé roofs of houses on Barrie street. But while | it was a civic welcome in which ev- erybody took part, the veterans of the war, their wives, mothers and fa- thers were nearest to the Prince's heart. One mother was heard to say: "1 would give five dollars if I could! get near enough to kiss him," and the veterans of the football teams said: "'E did "is bloody bit in the trenches with the rest of us and E's a sport clean through." He has a | winsome manner that captivates all with whom he comes in contact and | his straightforward "fnanliness calls forth admiration. Thunderous cheers greeted the ar- | rival-of the Prince of Wales at the | cricket field.

His Highness stood at atten- tion until it was finished, and as the children sang 'God Bless the Prince of Wales" he turned and waved his gloves at them. His winning smile delighted the children and they cheered him loudly. Mayor Newman then read the eci- vic address of welcome, to which the { Prince replied. The Prince's Reply. The Prince's reply to the Mayor's address was as follows: "Mr. Mayor: I am deeply touched by the heartiness of your welcome to this ancient and most loyal city, and I thank you sincerely for your warm expression of attachment to my fa- | ther, the King.

The field had been cleared for the game and the Army and Navy team under Captain Virr,' and G.W.V.A. team under Captain Batty were lin- ed up. ' J. R. Forster, and (eorge Young, president of the League, were in the centre of the field. His Royal Highness shook hands with Mr. For- ster and asked him to introduce the Captains. Mr. Forster introduced George Young and Captains Virr and Batty and after shaking hands with them he kicked off the ball. Ten movie men were present with their cameras but the crowd pressed in on the field and prevented the game be- ing played. The Prince enjoved the enthusiasm of the crowd who could not be induced to. leave the spot where he was and allow the game to proceed. Sd fter this the Prince climbed into Ms car, much against the wishes of the great crowd who would willing- ly have kept him there and shaken his hand off, and tie procession pro- ceeded slowly, on account of the crowds, that filled the roadway, un- til the car reached Barrie street. From top to bottom Princess street was lined with people, who were un- able to get up to the cricket field. and who were eager to glve the prince a hearty welcome, At The Military College. At the Royal Military Collegp the Prince and his staff were the guests of Major-General Macdonell at lunch. The cadet battalion received His Ro- yal Highness with the royal salute. After the Royal inspection the ca- dets formed a hollow square, the drums were placed in the centre, and the Prince presented colors to the Battalion. The colors, still in i cases, were varried forward by Serxt. Majors Dunbar and McDougall, who delivered them to Lieut.-Col. C. F. Constantine, DS.0,, and Lieut.-Col. E. J. C. Schmidlin, M.C., who laid them against the drums, The Prince then addressed the as- sembled cadets, saying how much he appreciated presenting these, the | first colors of the RM.C. "I know." | he continued, "how great a part this { Military College has played in the history of Canada and the Ele : un preminent in al ! over the world | during the last fifty or sixty years."

The purpose of an informal dis- cussion here Saturday was the consid- eration of the advisability of making some move towards the possible for- mation of a new group. The feeling was dominant that, if once given form, a soldier's party would be a great influence for clean politics and legislation for the needy veteran. "This is only a get-together meet- ing." lained Thos. Magladery. "No action will be taken without every soldier-member in the House irrespective of party, being given fullest opportunity to state his posi- ton in this regard."

At the conclusion of the presenta- i tion, the officer of the day, Lieut.-Co- lonel Alexander McPhail was present- ed to the Prince, who signified his de- sire of shaking hands with all the veterans on parade. Then commenc- ed what was a thrilling episode, ve- terans of all wars, from the oldest Fenian raider, Joe Tait, down to the present Great War, so happily finish- ed, passed on to the platform and shook hands with the Prince. Many oarried sticks and crutches, and the Prince bad a pleasant word for all. A large number of nursing sisters, shook hands with His Highness, and he enquired of many about the rib- bons they wore. The police had their work cut out to keep the crowd in control. Many were disappointed at not heing able to shake hands with the Prince, but the programme was so long that it was impossible to make time for this. It was enly by His Reval!
