VARIOUS VERSIONS OF
HOW It ALL HAPPENED

Montreal, Sept: 23.-That popular
post-election puzzle, "How did i
happen?" has fascinated all Canada
since Thursday.
Reciprocity repudiated," states ar
evening paper, in three-inch type
with cartoon below showing ar
archangel claiming "The Destroyer
reciprocity, with chain of votes.
Yesterdays victory was not tri
umph for any political party" ar
editorial declares. ''It was won b,
a patriotic coalition of Conservatives
and Liberals determined that the
dream of great imperishable Cana.
da should not be dispelled."
Graft Fear Given as Cause.
Another paper, displaying the sew.
cred heads from the eight defeated
Laurier ministers, insists that the
time has come for change in gov
eminent, lest the controlling party
become entrenched in graft.
Fear of annexation, disagreement
with the governments naval and
transportation policy and anxiety lest
the principle of Independent national
development be abandoned, were
other causes assigned for the sur
prising change which gives the Bot
den Conservatives a majority of at
least forty-eight in the new house
of commons.
Borden Regime in Full Power
The Borden regime will be inau.
gurated with even more completeness
of power than is indicated by the
mere statement of majority. OF the
1872 Conservatives seats but one is
held by a Nationalist. Henri Bour.
assa's lurid appeals to the young
French. vote of Quebec filled to Sc
cure more than typically enthusiasts
tic applause from the people, who
dearly love political campaigning
The elected Nationalist had no Con
sentative opponent in his district.
The San Juan islander. [volume] (Friday Harbor, Wash.) 1898-1914, 1911-09-29

notifies that no party could succeed
without a majority in the province OF
Quebec, but today's voting DESTROYED
this theory, for the government
though defeated, retained majority
IN Quebec. Many who believed that
the Conservatives would win expect
cd the majority to be small. and be-
lieyed the result would be that the
French nationalist group of the oppo-
sition would hold the balance OF
mower and that Henri Bourassa, their
leader, would seek election in some
constituency within short time and
make his temperance in parliament
to direct them. If this had been the
case they would have occupied the
most which the Irish party has some
times held in the British parliament,
and might have made the position of
the prime minister difficult.
Blow to NatiOnalists, Too.
The splendid majority obtained by
r, L. Borden in the English prov
tnces will make him practically inde-
pendent of the French group, for he
has working majority without
them. The effect of this will be to
minimize the nationalist party, which
Mr.. Bourassa has been creating for
eight years:
The great Conservative following
which has been sent to Mr.. Borden
by the province of Ontario makes 1t
certain that this province will domi-
nate Canadian affairs for some time
to come. The retirement from pub
lie life of Sir Wilfrid Laurier, now
nearing his 10th birthday, soon will
be announced and Liberal members
of parliament remaining will be call
ed upon to choose his successor. The
defeat of SO many leading cabinet
ministers made it difficult to forsee
upon whom the choice will fall.
