AUSTRALIAN ELECTIONS.

It is scarcely correct to read the result of tlie State elections as a victory for the Premiers' Plan. The South Australian Labour pa,rty has just been defeated for adherence to it. True, the fact that Labour was fighting ex-Labour spelled victory for the Nationalists) but in West Australia the verdict was definitely anti-Premiers' Plan. And elections w soon be taking place again in Tasmania an Victoria, and it will not surprise observers if all the States have soon anti-plan Governments. New South Wales by-elections, rura and city, have shown a tremendous drift fro® Mr. Stevens to Mr. Lang. To-day in Australia the Country and Nationalists are tne Premiers' Plan parties.
