‘ACROSS THE ISLAND Boundary Revisions re Stirring Interest

By NEIL A. MATHESON Previncial-Farm Editer

THE CRANGES in the bourdaries of federal ridings in this Province suggest some interesting possibilities to me. . ; An announcement in this paper on Saturday by the Tweedy Commission—Judge George J. Tweedy is chairman—suggests in future the four Island ridings. will. be Cardigan, with 23,061 people. Hillsborough. with 30,.050—it includes Charlottetown; Malpeque which includes, the Western part of Queens and takes im parts of Prince which includes the 4th Prince District, has 22.207 people, and the Western part of Prince is to be known as ‘ Egmont. It has 29.291

If somebody is wondering about

in the area.

“

———=Perhaps the most interesting possibility, the way I see it, ‘or the province

hes in the fact that Kings—up to now the counties have been the electoral riding—has always had a Roman Catholic representing it :n the House of. Commons. since the representation was re- duced .te one member, and that goes back to the turn of the century ° AWAY BACK in: 1346! the Scots and Irish fought a bitter battle that history has dubbed the ‘Belfast Riot”. There were -peorle killed on both sides—nobody ever knew the number. I've been told: many others were injured.

i know that’s almost 120 years ago but the riot has never been completely forgotten. In some sections of Belfast the old sores have never healed. As a result a Roman Catholic member has never been elected in the Belfast district, a provincial riding. Because Belfast is a part of Queens. a Roman Catholic has never represented the county. Neither of the old parties would even fhominate one

‘Inesdentally. T saw more than a vear ago. one of the shil- felachs used in the “riot”. It’s an Irish Blackthorn stick that eame from the Auld Sod. Naturally the stick has historic value today. but the owner asked me not to reveal his name. so I'm keeping faith with him. :

*F"fried for sometime to get enough facts on the fight. and the backzround, to do an accurate and an impartial column on ft. I made some- progress, but not nearly enough, so I've drop- ped the idea fer the present.)

Interesting Possibilities Seen

And now we are going te have this Belfast district tacked on to Kings. where they've never had anything else but a Roman Catholic represent them. It suggests some interesting possibilitiés.

= They have an exceptionally fine young man, John Mullally, representing Kings in the Commons now. I. can't imagine any- one turning him down, particularily a Liberal: and Belfast i predominantly Liberal.

I'm wondering—and I admit I'm only hoping—if the result may be that at some future date we may have candidates chosen for their individual ability, instead of for their religious per- suasion. Of course I'm thinking of all four Island ridings. I cannot recall when we had a Roman Catholic member in any Of the other Island seats. It just doesn’t make sense to me that 8 Protestant should never have a chance to be an MP in one ela and a Roman Catholic never have a chance in the other

ree

BEFORE I leave this district. I should add that it also con- tains Mt. Stewart, a part of the present Third Queens district. And, as I see it, the Cardigan federal riding should lean:to the

e

I'm speaking in general terms. Charlottetown has been strongly Conservative over the years. Third Queens is Liberal, but it’s mot big enough to offset Charlottetown. Here is a safe Tory 1 see.a battle betweeriAngus MacLean and Heath Macquarrie tr get the nomination here. Whoever gets it should be home

= the Malpeque ‘seat should be as close to a safe seal as you-can get in the province. Rural Queens has always been recarded as Liberal—Charlottetown was always the big Grit ohstacle—and now they've added the predominantly Liberal 4th Prince district. Unless Liberal fortunes are terribly low. the FC who nominates here. anv PC, will have reugh going indeed.

Tougher Fight In Egmont

TO BE accurate. 1 have to note that Malpeque also has a bit _of Fifth Prince. the Summerside. district. and. that: includ- “ed the airport’ Rut where does that leave the rest of Prince which comprises the Egmont riding?

. | know Prince has heen strongly Liberal . __Lefurzgey won or the Tories in 190 by the slim margin of » =2fivotes, has a Qonservative ever won Prince with the ex-

ception of the years 1957 to 1963 which were disastrous for the Grits right across the country. :

But I> suggest that the -predominantly Liberal 4th District plaved a major role in achieving ‘that effect. Now the Ath Misttict is gone If there's a really unhappy MP in this prov-. ince now, it just has to be Solicitor General Watson MacNaught- The way I see it. The Egmont constituency is now weighted towards the Torries. It should be tough fighting ground. for a Liberal in future

THE NEW boundaries will cause political changes in sev- era! ridings. But the overall result will be much the same. We have two Liberals and two PCs now. It's often been that

Two of the new. ridings favor the Tories. two favor the Liberals. There's nothing new about that, but the individual mdincs offer some imterestitz possibilities Sx hearmegs have been advertised. twe at Charlottetown, and the others at Georgetown. Summerside.

the_new names, its fairly posed @hiicus that the districts have been named for the major bays

While we don't have the exact figures on the potato plebiscite twe important facts stand out. First the vote was small—hard- ly one-third of the total eligibie and of those voting roughly three to one favoured the plana. Stated another way only about one-fifth of those eligible actuai- . ly supperted the plan. A result of this kind is certainly set en- couraging te the Potate Board” which made a strong effort te

the vole out. # is alse not encouraging those whd would like to see potate growers take a much more active interest in having something much strong- er in the way of organization to promote the industry. We. feel that generally the potato deal- ets were encouraging growers to vote and t® support the piaa; different conflusions may be drawn fr this fact The second stage of the ma'- "ter Will now be receiving atten- tioh when the Minister of Agri- culture calls the county meet- ings ‘to elect producer membe-s to a new Board We have point-
