A LABOR VICTORY.
VARIOUS OPINIONS. By Telegraph—Press Association— Copyright Reoeived 10.50 p.m., July 27. London, July 27. Henderson, a Labor candidate, who replaces Joseph Pease, beating Vane (Unionist) and Beaumont (Liberal), scored 3370, against his opponents 3323 and 2809 respectively. Received 11.16 p.m., July 27.
Opposition organs represent Mr Henderson’s victory as Chamberlain’s defeat. The Standard is disposed to concur. The Times doubts if Mr liendersou’s fiscal views greatly influenced the result. Mr Henderson claims a conspicuous triumph for the Labor movement, a proof that the workers are becoming alive to their own interests and are competent to conduct political affairs themselves.
