He was chosen as a Liberal Candidate in Peel County to contest the general election for the House of Commons in 1891 against the sitting Conservative member William Armstrong McCulla. Featherston won that election with a 54 majority, in what has been described as a "keen and exciting contest." That election was declared void; a by-election which was held on February 11, 1892 gave Featherston a majority of 133. The next election Featherston participated in was against A. F. Campbell, publisher of the . Featherston triumphed by a majority of 466, or 1891 to 1425. This marked the first time any Peel candidate won by a margin of over 100. Featherston's streak ended in 1900, to Richard Blain. (en)
