From these figures, of course, there is only one obvious

conclusion, namely, that whichever party it is that will benefit by triangular fights will hold an enormous advantage. Which' this party Is, of course, depends on whether it is supposed that the Liberal Party - is nearer to Labour than it is to Conservatism, or vice versa. If the Liberals are nearer Labour, then, of course, the " progressive vote is split " and the Unionists will benefit ; if, however, the issue is Socialism or anti-Socialism, their the anti-Socialist vote is split, and Labour will benefit. It all depends on whether the elector who wishes to vote " progressive " considers that he is doing so if he votes Liberal ; if he does, then indeed the " progressive ". vote will be split and the Unionists will gain.
