On the basis of the vote of 1895 the

THE MINNEAPOLIS PRIMARIES,
The results Of the primary election In
Minneapolis under the new primary law
are so extraordinary as to bespeak a
probable revolution in political machin-
cry
1t is necessary only to reflect that the
total vote cast at those primaries exceed
ed the vote cast for governor at the last
election, in order to understand the great
significance of the event The people
have shown in Minneapolis that they de-
sire to take part in the preliminary steps
for the selection of candidates for public
office. This right has been denied them
under every primary law which has ex-
listed in this state, or, indeed in any other
state, until the recent movement in favor
of a referendum vote at the primaries
was first embodied in legislative enact
ment
In theory, at least, the people have had
the right to participate in the primaries.
The only adequate explanation which can
be offered of their neglect and refusal
to do so under the old plan is that they
have been possessed OF the conviction
that their votes would not be honestly
registered. In this they have been right.
AS general rule primary elections have
been little better than farcical; and their
results, save where great rivalry existed.
and where the conditions implied an hon
est registration Of the vote, such, for
instance, as we have seen frequently in
this city, especially in certain districts
IN the Seventh ward, have justified the
popular conclusion.
In yesterdays Minneapolis primaries
the people were invited in real earnest to
indicate their preference for the indi-
viduals who presented themselves as can
didates. They did so in no uncertain
terms. The invitation was evidently
quite acceptable to them; and they have
almost demonstrated that, at the primary.
as at the general elections, they are ready
to do their full duty. This law has been
contested by a class Of politicians whom
the people have reason to know. Thew
are the men who, in the past
have made many city elections
the occasion for unmeasured frauds
on the franchise. and who have
been largely deprived of their power
for fraud and corruption through the
operation Of the Australian system. The
opposition of such men attest the real
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1900-09-20

merits of the new system. The results
in Minneapolis have confirmed the belief
that the people have been anxious at all
times to assert their rights to select their
own public officials by going to the pri-
maries for the purpose of selecting the
men whom they thought most worthy Of
their votes.
The selection of Dr. Ames as the Re-
publican candidate for mayor is really
an extraordinary outcome of the new law.
But 1t appears to have been reached
through the fullest and fairest expression
possible Of the peoples will under the
law, and twill be cordially concurred in
by all who seek to deprive corruptionists
of control over the original and funda-
mental election machinery.
1t will, no doubt, be urged against the
effectiveness of the law that Ames' noml-
nation was brought about by Democrats
voting for him, doing so, perhaps, in or
der to force an Objectionable candidate
on the other side, and one who would
be all the more easily beaten by the
nominee of their own party. But such
an objection is not final by any means.
Ames announced himself as a Republican
candidate If Republicans had prefer
ence for another man they should have
gone to the primaries and made their
preference felt. Until the election is
held 1t will be impossible to say that
the votes cast for Ames were not cast in
good faith.
While time and experience may result
in suggesting many improvements on
the present Minneapolis primary law, it
is certain that It's main characteristic, of
giving to the qualified voter the right to
go into the primary booth and of there
casting his vote in secret for his prefer
ences among the several announced can
didates for nomination, will remain un-
disturbed. 1t marks the most substan-
ttal advance that has been made In the
direction of enabling the people to con-
troll the election machinery and have
their wishes made manifest since the
adoption Of the Australian system.

LITERARY NOTES.

With Its October issue Pearson's Is en-
larged from 80 to 164 pages which makes
1t the largest illustrated magazine in the
world. The additional pages are devoted
chiefly to short stories and to a serial
An objection to reading novels In serial
form is the comparatively small sections
into which the book has to be divided.
This objection has been done away with
by the publishers of Pearson's Magazine,
who will print 5000 words of the story
each month; in other words, as much as
goes in these days to make many COM
plete novels. The chief feature of the
october issue, therefore, Is the first in
stalment of H. Rider Haggard's new
historical novel, ''Lysbeth: A Tale of the
