SYDNEY CITY ELECTIONS.
ANTI-LABORITES JUBILANT. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyrigtt. Sydney, Dec. 3. The. anti-Labor Press is jubilant at the result of the city elections, which they py Jess to regard as a test of political strength between the Australian Labor Party, as bosses of the municipal council and the State Parliament, and, furthermore, as an index of public sentiment in the possible State elections later on. The summarised Press opinion, which is largely shared by the public, is that Labor, as represented througn'its Town Hall majority, reaped the overdue harvest of its deserts. The Lord Mayor, Mr. Lambert, attributed Labor’s defeat to the Legislative Council rejecting the City Franchise Amendment Bill and to having to fight the whole forces of capitalism and the boycott by the corrupt Press. He added that democracy would not be baulked long of its will. The people would see that the whole Legislative Council was swept away.
