		Tupper may have been motivated by his awareness of the electoral débâcle that was to follow, for in the first federal elections in September he was the only pro-confederate in Nova Scotia to win a seat (Cumberland), and then by a very narrow margin.
		Tupper’s greatest challenge was the completion of the Pacific railway, which he viewed not merely as a Canadian railway but as “an Imperial Highway across the Continent of America entirely on British soil.” He made several popular changes in its route and began to distribute contracts for further work.
		Tupper lowered freight rates as a means of increasing traffic and revenues and made substantial reductions in operating costs; by the early 1880s the railway was operating at a profit.

		Although Sir Charles Tupper is no doubt a more familiar name, James William Johnston is generally acknowledged as the founder and first leader of the Liberal-Conservatives.
		It was apparent at this time that Tupper was considered by many to be the party’s patriarch, the real Party Chief, a “Chief’s Chief” perhaps.
