QUEBEC ANTI BRITISH
in That Province Borden Carried
Only Three Seats and Those Are
In City of Montreal.

Ottawa. Ont,s Dec 17.--Unlon gov
ernment has been returned and con
scription confirmed by the Canadian
domestic vote. EARLY returns receiv.
ed from all over Canada indicate that
the Government of Sir Robert Bor-
den has been elected to administer
Canadian affaiIs for another five
years and that ISir Wilfrid Laurier is
as definitely defeated as in the reci-
procity election of 1911.
Returns Indicate that the French
portion of Canada has gone heavily
for Sir Wilfrld Laurier and English
constituencies nave returned men
who will support the Union govern
ment measures and maintain Pre-
mier Borden in office
The vote has been very heavy
everywhere and the majorities are
very large. The soldier vote, which
will not be ascertained for some days
will increase the already heavy ma
jorities of Government members and
will likely Increase the number of
Government supporters elected.
= Official returns announced shortly
before midnight showed that with
3s districts 10 be heard from the
Unionists had. won 110 seats and the
opposition 3d., with four seats de-
ferred.
The Province OF Quebec, outside OF
the city Of Montreal went absolutely
solid for Sir Wilfriu Laurier, the
standing OF theS parties being: On
position 62; Government 2.
The three supporters of the Borden
administration elected are C. j. Do
herty, Minister of Justice, represent
ing The ST. Anna's division Of Mon
treal; c.. c. Ballantyne Minister Of
Marine st. Lawrence division of
Montreal and Sir Herbert Ames. ST.
Antoine division of Montreal These
three constituencies contain large
English speaking vote. Wherever
the French vote predominated the
piled up for the Laurier
candidates were overwhelming.
Sir Wilfrid himself was returned
for a Quebec seat.
