THE SPRING ELECTION.
1t Will Be under the Australian Law
and the Conventions TluSt Be
Held One Week Earlier.

There has been some question as to
whether the municipal election this
spring would come under the prOvi
sions of the new Australian law, and
divers opinions have been expressed.
1t seems to have been the general
opinion that it would not, but this is
erroneous. The election will be held
under the provisions of that law, and
the result will be that the caucuses
and conventions must be held week
or ten days earlier than has been the
custom heretofore. This allows but
a little over three weeks time to do
the usual skirmishing, and it is time
that the business men were taking an
interest in the question of the mayor
atty.
Section 1913, of the general election
law of 1891, repeats all previous laws
bearing on the subject. Sec. 126
makes the act "apply to all general
and special elections in the state of
Minnesota, except township and vii.
lage elections" This of itself would
probably throw out the city election
from coming under any general law
unless it was construed to be within
the meaning of general election.
But the city charter provides, in
section 1, that the city elections shall
be held in conformity with the gener
al election laws of the state" The
Australian law is the only genera
election law, and therefore the cleo
tion must take place under it. The
same process must be gone through
with as last fall.
The city council shall, at least q
days before the election, appoin
three judges of election in each ward
who shall appoint two clerks, no NOR
