South Australia - Politics
-
There must be here less of Downing-Street regime; more of democratic influence. But to this effort the people must rouse themselves to political action. A false autocracy may sink this colony to perdition, but democratic institutions may elevate it to the very highest point of power and felicity.
(Adelaide Times, 26 June 1851, page 3b.)

-
Mr Phillips, [President of the Chamber of Commerce], has long viewed with horror the political tendencies of the Commonwealth, and possibly the formation of a Labor Ministry has completed his dismay. Sir William Harcourt summed up the spirit of the age in the famous words "We are all socialists now." In making that glib pronouncement, however, [he] had not reckoned with Mr Phillips and those who think and tremble with him. To them "socialism' is a word more horrific and malign than "Mesopotamian" was blessed to the old woman in the story... Viewing the future in this mood of wrought-up apprehension, Mr Phillips cannot even do justice to the present.

-
The proudest boast of South Australia is that this fair State was founded and colonised by honourable, law-abiding, peaceful and industrious Britons... Some recent events, however, suggest the presence in our midst of elements actively operating to blast the State's noble reputation... One part of the policy of many members of the dominant political party is to depreciate the significance of the anarchial outbursts which were witnessed ... last year...
