AUSTRALIAN POLITICS.

(Per Press Association—Copyright.SYDNEY, December 19. It is understood that when the House meets to-morrow, Mr Bavin (Leader of the Opposition) will move a motion censuring the Government lor dishonouring its pledge regarding the holding of an early election. SYDNEY, December tB. A meeting of the Australian Labour Party carried a resolution that the executive should endorse the action of tiie Parliamentary Labour Partv m bringing about a settlement of the political crisis, so that the full programme of the Government could be curried out. An amendment was then moved that Messrs Goodin and Gillies should be called upon to apply to the Executive for reinstatement in the movement. Mr Searle ruled this out of order, as Mes rs Goodin and Gillies had broken the principles of the Labour movement, and were therefore outside the movement. / The President’s ruling was defeated. °nd the motion was carried, rendering the prosneet of an election more remote than ever.
