The political allegiance of the coal miners of the constituency was uncertain. The Egerton family had been involved in the development and ownership of the collieries, and the Conservatives were confident that this would be sufficient to secure their support. On the other hand, the Liberals, who supported an eight-hour working day, believed they would get the majority of miners' votes.<sup id="cite_ref-dnewsoct1_3-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-dnewsoct1-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="The_campaign">The campaign</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=1890_Eccles_by-election&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: The campaign"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Roby's campaign was bolstered by the support of the <a href="/wiki/Irish_National_League" title="Irish National League">Irish National League</a>, with a number of Irish MPs visiting the constituency to support him.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The miners' associations applied pressure on Egerton to support an eight hours bill.
