The Conservatives hung on in a minority government until Mercier became Premier on January 27 , 1887 . Mercier actually ran under the name Parti National , but that name was soon abandoned, and the traditional "Liberal" name was retained. The ''Parti national'' got a large boost when Liberals and dissident Conservatives rallied in reaction to the hanging of Louis Riel in 1885 , for which the Federal Conservatives were held responsible by Quebec voters.
