Excerpt from The Empire Review and Magazine, Vol. 21: February, 1911 Coming events are said to cast their shadows before them, and certainly the deepening gloom that has settled over the landscape of Labour seems to indicate an impending change. Political meteorologists have divined it for some considerable time; for since the simultaneous rise of Mr. Joseph Chamberlain's great Imperial propaganda with the birth of a fourth party in the British Parliament, the decisive theatre 'of politics has been clearly discernible. Other political issues may intermittingly cross the boards, but it is evident that the last act in the drama now being enacted will find the stage occupied by two formidable duellists, and that the curtain will fall only with the final and overwhelming victory of one or the other.
