WARM HEART.
UNBLEMISHED HONOUR. AUSTRALIAN TRIBUTES. (Received 10.30 a.m.) SYDNEY, this day. The "Sydney Morning Herald" says that in Mr. Savage the New Zealand Labour party was fortunate in having a leader far better fitted than any other man among its Parliamentary membership to make its programme acceptable to the public. His ready sympathy, friendliness and moderation in speech, both on and off the platform, joined with his obvious sincerity, which never has been called into question, enabled him to keep in close touch with the thoughts, hopes and feelings of New Zealanders in every stratum of society.
The "Daily Telegraph" says Mr. Savage was a man of warm heart and unblemished honour. His political policy aroused bitter controversy in New Zealand, but Michael Savage, personally, was loved throughout the country.
The "Daily News" says that in Mr. Savage New Zealand has lost a true friend of the people and a really great Labour leader.
