carried to the uttcrnlost parts of-

the country the statement that .\lr.=

Sinclair's right to a seat in the cab~

inet was about to be questioned. Yet Mr. Sinclair had not a word to

say to those who had elected blln

to this scat. He owed to the-se sul. porters and they had expected

some explanation, some defence-,

some excuse, if nothing more. lie did not see fit to make it and he-

cause of this, his stereotyped de- fence`of the King government, n

commonplace defence with which

they were all more or less familiar, left a "ball taste in their mouths."

Very many came away from the meeting disappointed.

The appointment of Mr. A. C.

Saunders as provincial lcader was a foregone conclusion. There was

:lo other in the broken ranks and

the choice was one of necessity

and from the point of vie_w of the party and of the government no doubt satisfactory. Mr. Saunders

has had some parliamentary ex-

periauce, is a successful lawyer and stlll young and vigorous enough to cherish the hope that he may live long enough to rlse to thc

premiership of the province. l-le ls a fluent speaker and in-his ex- hlbltlon oil Friday nlgbt of what he

could do if he were premier he pro-

bably overdid it in the matter oi_ rhetoric as his bids for applause dld not always produce the desired

result] On the whole -however he

gave a good exhibition and was cordially and heartily cheered both ln his rising to acknowledge the honor and on resuming his seat.

Mr. Saunders, admittedly, has a

difficult and apparently long road before him. We wish hlm well

in his leadership of the opposition.
