THE GENERAL ELECTION.
THE GENERAL ELECTION. LIBERAL VICTORIES IN NORTH WALES. DENBIGH BOROUGHS. The keenest interest) was manifested in all parts j of the County in the fight in the Denbigh Boroughs I between Mr. Clement, Edwards (L.), and th Hon. Geo. Kenyoa (C.). Sine* the memorable fi/ht of 1880, when Sir Robart Canliffe defeated the Sen. George Kenyon by fifteen 'votes, uo Liberal mem- ber bas been returned for the Denbigh Boroughs, and since 1885, when the Liberel member hjgt his seat, the Liberals for many years regarded the effort to regain^ it as hopeless, bus Mr. Clement Edwards's work in the boroughs hils borne abundant frait, aad on Friday he was returned by the hand- somest majority ever known in the coos-Jtueocv. Whilst the Liberals of the Boroughs received the news of whaS they may truly regard as a famous victory with profound satisfaction. in their hour of triumph a feeling of personal regret was universally felt at the circumstances which made necessary the severance of the relationship that has existed between the electorate and Mr. George Kenyon for so many years. But the issues at stake were of such vital importance that even so popular a candidate must be rejected unless proposals fraught with danger to the State were to be endorsed.. 'd The weather on hriday was favoarable and the polling was esoepaonally heavy. Out of 4,755 electors 4,493 recorded their votes. Both can- didates were well provided with vehicles. The result of the poll was declared at the County Han, Denbigh, a few minutes after 11.30 p.m. The tirarp as follows :— Clement Edwards (L. and Lab.).. 2,533 Hon. G. T.

RECEPTION OF THE NEWS AT WREXHAM. With the memory of the inspiring motto Ring out the old, Uiog in the new fresh in every mind, it seemed peculiarly appropriate that the news of Mr. Clement Edwards a magnificent triumph over the forees of reaction should reach the largest town in the constituency just as the '• iron tongue of midnight" tolled twelve. The news was received at four minutes to twelve, and just as the new day broke all Wrexham knew that Edwards was in, and a cheer went up that was heard as far away as Gresford Vale. Remarkable scenes were witnessed in the crowded streets, recalling those which made "Mafeking" memorable. The townspeople went mad wlfc^ ael|ght; sober citizens turned iQ rf j ?t.reets hats were thrown into the air and the fatniliar "green and red be- came so universal that it Was difficult to find a bunch of blu except oa th) breasts of the ladies who oc :«ptea tne Conservation Club balcony. After cheering_ou«aide-tha Reform Club and the Liberal InstiVJ^ U £ U1*, were, hoarse the crowd rushed madly ocrougn the main street to the Imperial HottJ^ where an enthusiastic demon- etration to 'k pi'^e, Mr. Handel Booth of Man- chester, who h&d worked so well for the Liberal cause, address*^ crowd, and cheers were raised for the success'i f-andiaate. and between one and two o'clock, &uC a:*ter a series of processions through the principal streets—-wuh good-humoured demonstrations outside the Conservative Club—the elated townsfolk retired to rest. FLINT BOROUGHS. ANOTHER LIBERAL TRIUMPH. Much interest, has centred ia the contest in the Flint Boroughs. lh:s time the Conservatives brought forward, perhaps, as strong a candidate as it was possible to get, and they were very confidenl of winning, even up tc the last moment. ThE polling on this occasion wad very brisk all round the percents ■, '"f-h'f 03.5. The Roman Catholic *0^ *iv. T.5W,' candidate, attt yUfrn tfea opposition thought thej were perfect v safe ia chanting npon it. At th< counting th< re was a difference of five votet between the j ersonating agent, bat Mr. Idris saic he would giv 3 item, to his .opponent rather than they should have a. recount. Just on the stroke oi 10.30 the retii officer, Alderman J, L. Masprm, tha -suit as follows :-— Howell '<dri0 (L.) 1 899 Eldon intakes (C.) 1,523 Liberal maioritv o™ viU In 1900 the Liberal majority was 347 in 1895 165 in 1S92 359 in lb86 422; and in 1885 122. The large crowd that had congregated outside the Town Hall became frantic with delight on hearing the rosult, and the uproar was so great and continuous that when the candidates attempted to address thsm not a word co^ld ba heard, and they abandoned tue at"einpt. Shortly afterwards Mr. Howell Idris, M- 1 M rf-. Idns, and others left bv motor car for the Bagidfc, Hoiy^gjj^ and Mold, where warm receptions awaited them. Later in the RIght large crowds gathered in front of Mr. Idris's commit^e-roeras, and rowdyism began, several ot the widows of the committee- rooms and adjoining property were smashed by stoces, of which there was a continuous volley. Towards one oolocfe on Sunday morning, having exhausted their ammunition and become hoarse with continued eingtagand shouting, the crowd dispersed, and peace washappily restored. CARNARVON BOROUGHS, MR. LLOYD GEORGE'S TRIUMPH. All Welshmen anxiously awarded the declaration of the poll in the Carnarvon Boroughs not that there was any doubt hai Mr. Lloyd-George would Di3 retained tha was assured—but all hoped to see the majority vastly Qcreised and no one who did this was disappointea. i scene of jubilation, such as has seldom been Witnessed, took place at the County Town on Saturdty nightj when Mr. Lloyd- George's crushiiig aefeat of Mr. Naylor was made known. The Mayor Of Carnarvon (Mr. W. *A. Darbishire) was we returning officer. The ballot boxes from all tae Doroujhs were taken there, and the result of the p wasdeclared some time after midnight from the balcoiy ef the Guild Hall. At that time the space adjacint to the hall was packed with people, and the grestest exeitecnent prevailed. Though the issue was 4 foregone conclusion, yet intense interest was tfcen in fiaal gc ne Processions of Mr. L0yd-George's supporters, sporting yellow badges, graded the streets inces- santly with a po ice coii;table stationed here and there in their ranks tc guard against excesses. Conflicts between the opting parties were, how- ever, of freqsent occurieice, but everything passed off without any serious dsturbanoe. One incident was greatly regretted. 1 orowd of youths, said to be composed mostly of aiaffected quarrymen from Nantlle, surrounded Mr.Lloyd Carter, the Under Sheriff of the county and;4 well-known member of the Conservative party, and treated him rather badly. By the aid of tie police he was able to reach a hairdresser a shoj in Bangor-street, where he awaited a favourable (pportunity of proceeding home. Meanwhile severe constables were engaged keeping the crowd awar from the shop. Mr. Carter complained of havag been kicked about the legs, and on Sunday he wis confined to bed suffer- ing from shock. Anothe act of disorderliness was the damage done to the pate-glass shop window of Mr. J. R. Pritchard, a priminent Liberal. The counting of the vote preceeded immediately upon the arrival of the »oics from the southern boroughs at ten o'clock. By the same train Mr. Lloyd-George arrived, aid the welcome which greeted him betokeaedhe tremendous ovation which was in store for lim at a late hour. Mr. Lloyd.George, who had been informed of the unfortunate display of hotility to Mr. Carter, lost no time in strongly depretttiag sash oonduot. He spoke to a large crowd au the Guild Hall aboat I abstaining from acts of violence, pointing out that they were not his friends who resorted to the ill- treatment of opponents. From ten o'clock until long after midnight an immense surging concourse of pesple was assembled in the Square and Eastgate-street patiently expacting the declaration of the poll. Shortly after half-past eleven the word went forth that Mr. Lloyd-George was in I with a majority of 1,184.. Bat nothing officially was known till 12.25, when the figures were «anrinrmr»or!

After the declaration Mr. Lloyd-George moved a vote of thanks to the Mayor. In the absence of Mr. Naylor, who had left the town early in the day, the motion was seconded by Mr. Nee, his election agent. Tha figures made it dear that tha poll had been an unusually heavy ovp, nob more than 442 being unaccounted for. There were six spoilt voses. Bangor, the largest of the boroughs, polled 1,812, leaving 112 unaccounted for; Carnarvon, 1,563, leaving 120; Conway 714, leaving 58 Pwllheli 588, leaving 47; Nevin 306, leaving 7, and Criccieth 230, leaving 22. The fioal episode in the celebration of the Con- servative defeat was the singing of the "Dead March by a procession of j ubilaat Liberals. They walked with measured steps, pausing for a shore while in front of the Royal Hotel, where Mr. Naylor generally puts up when visiting the town. The effect at two o'clock in the morning was not a little weird. MONTGOMERY BOROUGHS. COLONEL PRYCE-JONES DEFEATED. Some two or three hundred people journeyed to Montgomery on Friday to learn the result of the poll for the Montgomery Boroughs, the major portion wearing blue, the Conservative col ours. The counting began at half-past eleven, and at half- past twelve showed the figures to be :—Rees, 1,542 Pryce-Jone?, 1,457 majority 85. There were seven spoiled papers and oae doubtful. Col. Pryee- Jones demanded a recount, and at half-past one the Mayor (Mr. Henry Jones), who was the lietaraiug Officer, appeared at one of the windows of the Town Hall, and declared Mr. Rees duly elected Member of Parliament, for Montgomery Boroughs, fiomrAa hainn- -—— ° J. D. Rees (L.) 154] Colonel Pryce-Jones (C.) 1)458 Liberal majority S'i Liberal majority S'i It seems that in the recount one paper for Col. Pryce-Jones was found amongst those for Mr. Rees, and this made a difference of two in the majority as first announced. NEWTOWN MILTi GIRLS AND THE ELECTION. The Liberal victory had a carious result on Saturday morning. Several of the girls employed at the factory of Messrs. Pryce-Joaes, Limited, had during the election prominently worn the Liberal colours. T4e other girls who were professedly Conservative resented this, and when the factory was opened on Saturday morning they refused to work with the Liberals. The latter were hooted as they entered, and had to retire from the building. To prevent any further disturbance the manage- ment closed the factory until Monday, and the girls, in two bands, paradeo the stfeetg for some time. The incident caused some astonishment in the town, as Colonel Pryce-Jones, the unsuccessful Conservative candidate, is the managing director of Pryce-Jpjjes, Limited.

A resolution was also passed recording the hearty, approval of the Union of the new Liberal Cabinet, and heartily congratulating Mr. LI'd George on his appointment as PresIdent. of the Board of Trade, and Messrs. Herbert Lewis and R. M'Kenna on their acceptance of office in the Government.
