St Johns. y. F., Oct. S.-The forth
coming colonial election promises to be
the most hotly contested in the history
If New Foundland. The government
organs assaiI Mr.. Morine's admission
that he is and has been the counsel for
Mr. Reid, the contractor, alleging that
Mr.. Morinc's success al the polls would
mean that Mr.. Reid will have absolute
control Of the Legislature and be able
I'd obtain such legislation as Will per
nit him to transfer his numerous fran
chiees, of immense importance to the
colony to limited liability company.
They also assert that Messrs. Reid

that the latter's promise to resign the
post Of counsel to the former is not
an adequate safeguard considering the
great interests involved.
1t is generally understood that the
Reid enterprises will be capitalized at
