John Oliver's Hard Job in Similkameen Riding
John Oliver campaigned in Similkameen to urge electors to back Duncan Ross but faced a tepid reception. The speech spanned two hours and a half, filled with platitudes and disputed claims about Canada's past expansion, local transport, and the Great Northern project. The piece accuses Oliver of dishonesty or ignorance, citing L. W. Shatford's 1905 work and a Gazette editor's prior coverage to counter his assertions.
