C. Langstaff of Emo, President of the Conservative Association for thel Kenora-Rainy River federal riding, in opening the meeting in the afternoon, |: said that Conservatives in the Rainy River District oulnirnbered any other party by a majority of from 500 to 600. it was not a case for separate districts, |! however, but for the whole united party to redeem the seat. Referring to geographical obstacles that had £3 be surmounted to . travel |frem one end! of the riding to another, he asked that the Kenora District co- operate will Rainy River in boosting the construction of a connecting road. In proposing Mr A. D. George of I't. Francis, Mayor Ellicott said conditions had changed since last election. They would give A. D. George a. bigger ma, jority than evén Col Machin. They were promised 'strong labor suppert. They could beat an adverse vote 'of 1000 in the north. Mr 'Tibbetts, in seconding, claimed they could give Mr George a majority of 1000 to 1200. The candidature of Mr A. Pitt was proposed by J. P. Earngey op second ed by J. K. Brydon of Kenora. Mr Pils, said his supporters, was a man highly esteemed in his district, who hac the full approval of his own section.. He felt that Mr Pitt 'could do credit to the duties at Ottawa. Nominations being declared closed, a ballot gave 100 for George against 96 for My Pity out of a total of 196 votes of all gelipen. : Editorial Comment. While the decision of the Conserva- tive Convention at Kenora must have |meant disappointment for Mr Pitt, he |can console himself somewhat by "the tact that that he only lost out by so narrow a inargin against a powerful opponent backed by the support of : own" The disadvantage that we exper- ience in this scattered population in impress ing our political needs on the higger centres is shared by those who seek prefer ment in public life: the odds lways against the smaller commun- ity and its representatives. It speaks well for the personality of the local 'candidate; then, that he-achieved as | much as he did. Mr Pitt must feel gratified with the wagnificent' backing he 'received from his own countryside, as well as the wonderful support he had from Kenora and Keewatin., The fact that tha invi- tation to become a candidate came {rom Kenora is significant as an: Indi- calion of the growing importance of this end of the Distriet. To those who were present and who witnessed events at the Convention and know that Pitt waived the slight ad- vantage he held in the number of dele- gates permitted, to secure harmonious relations between north and south ends of the in it was 'evident that o 4.1 p plat sight times the size of Fut J it is hereby changed from the Yh of is not' TAT. of sacrificing personal ambition: for greater ends. His persistence in demanding politi- | cal recognition for this section of the] District has its value, even if he does not succeed in getting nominated, -and some day the district will come to its own, Meantime it is permissable to hope that the foundation is being laid upon 'which we can later build up. ORGANIZE JOINT EXECUTIVE. There will be a joint meeting of Labor, Farmer and Liberals on Tuesday, 10th August, in Dryden Town Hall at 8.00 o'clock, for the purpose of appoiniin a joint district Executive in the interest of the candidature of Peter Heenan. It ig hoped that all municipalities |} ond polling points will realize the im- portance of this meeting and be well re presented. D. G. DINGWALL. "J. H. SHERWOOD. M. 8. CAMPBELL.
