He, like many other Prince Edward Islanders, is engaged ex- It was generally conceded outside of U.F. O. ranks that Ferguson would head the largest of the groups, but many felt the uncertainty of the Conservative party hav- ing a majority over all. As matters now stand, Ferguson leads by 39. In the new Government, Ferguson will have 75 seats, while the U.F.O. will have 17, the Liberals 14, Labor 4 and Independents 1. Locally, the Conservatives from the first had a strong feeling of assurance on the success of Dr. Jamieson, who went down four years ago under an adverse majority of 953 by Dr. Leeson, who in turn was de- feated in Monday’s contest. Dr. J amieson’s ”mum, ...._,. ----.O __ .. M. E. Murray at Neustadt, is 314. The tab- ulated statement appearing on our front page this week should be correct, barring any mistakes which may have occurred through a misunderstanding over he phone. This is a .big turnover and must be Al‘f‘in“ During the evening, Dr. Jamieson took a position on the Band-stand here and thanked the electors for the s11pport ac- corded. He left shortly afterward to obey an insistent demand from Hanover that he make an appearance there. It is to be hoped that now the election is over the populace will go back to business, forga the heated arguments in which they have engaged for the past few weeks and accept the verdict of the people with good grace. The world will always run after a winner, but at the same time it has a wholesome respect for a good loser. Mr. Drury was defeated in Halton by a majority of 1,508, and Mr. Wellington Hay, leader of the Liberal group, went down un- der an adverse vote of 800. The Farmer- Labor party, standing in second place nu- merically, will, by linking up with Labor and Independents, have 22, and Mr. Raney is said to have asprations to be leader of the Opposition. PllUlon 1111 -v . -_ -- a great disappointment to Dr. Leeson’s supporters, who were looking for a major- ity of from ten to twelve hundred. ‘U “ ”DD V“-- The Libe1 als, in the absence of Mr. Hay, 121 ill have to choose a new leader. When Miss Macphail moved in the Com- mons to cut the indemnities down to $3,500 she had only twO supporters. She was play- ing a safe card, and in the next campaign will try to make the electors believe she was sincere. As to giving back the $1,500 of her sessional indemnity, she could hard- ly get out of it and hold the confidence of electors who heard her pre-election talk. For the next four years, our advice would be to hold all she can get. She is more sure of the six thousand dollars than she is of winning in the next election. Dr. Leeson, too, should have hung on to the $600 addi- tional indemnity rather than dribble'it out to the different municipalities. Let us see! Isnt D1. Jamieson one of the political hoboes the people didnt want? And isn’t this about the time We were to attend his funei al? The seer from the south and the undertaker from the north are reminded of the uncertainties of horse races and elections. We are unable to give this issue an ac- count of our trip to the Maritime Prov- inces owing to pressureof woyk. ‘We may PAGE FOUR W.

He is looking well and wishes to be kindly remembered to all. ONTARIO SUFFERS DAMAGE The gale Monday evening between Tor- onto and the Niagara Peninsula has caus- ed damage estimated at $2,000,000. Sev- eral fatalities are reported, including three deaths in Wellington County, and a Mim- ico man killed by coming in contact with a live electric wire. Factories, dwellings and barns were wrecked and fruit and orchard trees blown down and destroyed. Telegraph and telephone poles were blown down and communication was interrupted so that great difficulty was experienced in getting the election returns. On the road between Acton and Fergus along the line of the Canadian National Railway, trees and fences were levelled, buildings unroofed and in one case a new brick veneer building, nearly completed, was left in a ruined condition. We saw three fires from the train as we passed through. The rain between Georgetown and Guelph was the heaviest we ever re- member seeing. THE SECRECY OF THE BALLOT Section 102 of the Election Act says : “The voter on receiving his ballot paper shall forthwith proceed into one of the compartments of the polling place, and there mark his ballot paper, making a cross,with a black lead pencil within the white space containing the name of the candidate, or within the white spaces con- taining the names of the candidates for whom he intends to vote, and shall then fold the ballot paper so that the initials and stamp on the back of it and the number on the counterfoil can be seen without open- ing it, and hand it to the deputy returning officer, who shall, without unfolding it, ascertain, by examining his initials, and the number on the counterfoil, that it is the same ballot paper that he furnished to the voter, and shall then, in full View of all present, including the voter, remove the counterfoil and tear up or otherwise des- troy it and place the ballot paper in the ballot box. R.S.O., 1914, c. 8, s. 102.” We are positively assured that in one of the polling booths on Monday the ballots were deliberately unfolded by the deputy returning officer before tearing off the counterfoil, so that he and others could readily see for whom the ballot was mark- ed. This is a direct violation of the fore- going section and the offending officer, on conviction, is, we are told, liable to a prison term. The Council this year are deserving of the thanks of the citizens for the manner in which they took hold of the street-oiling proposition and successfully carried it through. In our humble opinion, another matter that should receive their prompt consideration is the occasional cleaning- up of the streets in the town. Some time ago The Chronicle suggested that each property owner rake up the stones and debris in front of his property into a neat pile or piles and have 'the Board of Works have a team and wagon in the employ of the Council haul it away. We think this suggestion is agood one, and believe that l the ratepayers of the town will be willing g to fall in line with it. It is hardly reason- able to expect the Council to keep a paid man on the job, and again it is not right that our streets should go dirty and mar the natural beauty of the place. A little co-operation between Council and citizens is all that is needed. Both will be willing, but who can bring them together? A town with clean streets is an ttraction to both the tourists and the resident themselves. le \x'nmvn haw had ”In \‘Utt‘ quih1 a whilo‘ 110w. but. Um cuunu'y Sim-ms to be as had oc as mun-«Judge.
