Alberni Bye-Election Faces Fierce Liberal Conservative Fight
The writ for the Alberni by election has been issued with polling hoped for this month. Conservative candidate William Manson, ex- mayor of Nanaimo, and Liberal candidate H Aitkin, editor of the Nanaimo Herald, lead a strong field. Victory for the Government would endorse past policies and give a stable majority. Liberal loss would signal party leadership doubts and disapproval of opposition tactics.
