Announcement that the Dominion election will be held on October 29 suggests the B C Legislature sitting may be postponed from October 26. Members are unlikely to travel for an opening three days before polling. Talks hint at a possible alliance among Provincial party, Labor, and independents, risking friction with Conservative opposition if votes align differently.

Nova Scotia Leader Calls Freight Rate Order Inadequate
Nova Scotia premier E N Rhodes condemns a railway board order as limiting a full review of freight tariffs. The plan directs CN and CP to file reduced westbound rates by September 15, affecting grain and flour movements eastward for export. Maritime grievances risk remaining unaddressed as prairie harvests proceed and BC labor orders are canceled.
