- Last Days Were Busy

_ The last few days before the
election the candidates were all
active, Some were holding meet-
ings and others were doing the
personal canvass (personal con-
tact). But the people were not
overly excited and there will be
some who will not eyen exert
themselves sufficiently to. vote..
The meetings held by Dr. H. C.
-Wrinch’ at New Hazelton and
Hazelton were quite the most
encouraging political meetings

time. Alex. A. Connon blossomed
out as an orator on Monday night
and again in his home town Tues-
day night. J. Mason Adams, of
Smithers, was present at the
meeting and his report. to the
home guard was s0 favorable
that Alex had to go to ‘Smithers
Wednesday afternoon to help at
Dr. Wrinch’s meeting there.”
Elsewhere in. this issue will be
