Largest Christmas Tree.

The largest Christmas tree coming
to the city Is engaged for Central Union
and tickets are printed for more than
900 scholars and for the parents of the
younger scholars. The date chosen for
st. Nick to visit the school is Friday,
December 2lst. Doors will open at 6
and the music will begin at $3.50. 1t Is
thought best to have all scholars share
alike on this occasion and have no
presents given out except those given
by the school. Some teachers have
presents for their classes but there Is
time to distribute those on or before
Christmas day, and 1t is an appropriate
time for teachers to visit the homes.
The program Friday evening will be
simply merry time. with singing an |
eating and enjoying the sights AMI
sounds Of giving, receiving, opening,
enjoying and sharing the good things
so generously provided. Last year the
scholars gave, so this year is the time
for them to receive.

places them in the box. Later The
crosses on the marked ballot are GER
dited to the respective candidates ana
the unmarked ballot is returned to the
City Clerk. II a voter blunderingly
marks both ballots, only the one con-
tanning the greater number Of marks IL
counted. As result of the first pri-
maries held in Minneapolis under the
law 1t is declared that better candidates
than ever before were chosen. Men who
had refused steadily to be drawn into
the old style primaries and conventions
now came to the front and declared
their candidacy. A significant devel-
opment was the fact that every profess
sional ofIiceseeker whose name appear
ed on the ballot was rejected. Three
ring" Aldermen, for example, receiv-
ed small vote, whereas they had no;
encountered any difficulty in retaining
their offices term after term through
the old system OF party conventions.
Multiplicity of candidates is by no
means a serious criticism, because each
one brings out his friends and increases
the volume of the vote and interest.
Before the Australian ballot law was
introduced the cry of expense was
raised; but now, say the friends of the
primary reform measure, the money
Is well invested. BY combining regis
tration and primary the expense 10
the people is not greatly increased aud
the $40 which each candidate pays the
County Auditor helps to meet the bills.
In forty-eight hours everybody
knows who is nominated for every
Office in the county. In Hennepin
county alone the new primary system
did away with twenty-six conventions
and twelve nights caucusing, and the
whole work was done by the voters in
one day the polls being open from
o'clock in the morning until o'clock

this one primary election 1880 votes,

tiOn---WOrthy Of Local

THE Minnesota primary election
system marks a new era in politics,
and is revolution not even second to

watched the results of the new direct.
concurrent primary election law, used
for the first time in Hennepin county,
Minnesota, on Sept. is last.
After the law was passed by the
Minnesota Legislature and before its
actual test, the principle found such IA
vor that 1t was made part of the Wis
consin Republican platform, Is being
officially studied in Indiana and has
enlisted the services of men who are
working for its adoption in New York.
The Minneapolis object lesson proved
the practical nature of the plan.
y The author of the law is Oscar f. G.
Day of Minneapolis. Through his per-
sistent efforts the Minnesota Legisla-
ture at the session Of 1898 enacted
the direct primary law, but applied it
only to Minneapolis and Hennepia
county instead of to st. Paul and Du-
luth also as proposed by Mr.. Day and
his Co-workers.
According to this law both parties
hold their primaries on registration
day at the places of registration. To
hold primaries and registration at one
time has been found in other States to
be an excellent way of increasing the
vote at primaries. Having registered,
the citizen-Republican or Democrat
gets two tickets, one containing Re-
publican and the other Democratic can
didates whose names had been placed
on the tickets through petitions Of not
less than per cent Of the voters cast
ing ballots for the office in question at
the last previous election. There may
be dozen candidates on the same par
ty ticket for one office. The name Of
each candidate for the place appears
at the top under the designation of
Office, in a proportional number of bal
lots, the theory being that no name
should have the advantage of appear
ing at the top of all the ballots, Should
other parties enter the contest the
number Of tickets would be increased,
one ticket for each party going TO every
voter
Each voter marks one ballot only,

faced the voters on election day was
nominated Touching the opposition in
the Legislature to the law he framed,
its first actual test and danger of hos
tile amendments in the next Legisla-
ture, Mr.. Day says:
AT first Il was urged that the law
was cumbersome and its machinery i'm
possible OF application. 1t would re-
quire u ticket twelve feet long: not
over twenty votes could be polled in ~
hour; the vote could not be counted
in week, and the law was unconstitu-
tional. All these assertions have been
tested By actual trial and have been
shown to be totally without foundation.
The ticket was eighteen inches long,
the voter voted more rapidly than a.
general election and the count was ac.
complished In a few hours. Certain Ill
legged Improvements have been sus-
gested Il has been suggested that 4
voter be forced to make affidavit as to
his party and receive but one ballot.
That makes a public ballot and would
keep away from the polls hundreds Of
men, who while not absolutely afraid
that their employers would discharge
them for being of opposite politics,
would rather remain away from the
polls and not run any risks 1t has been
suggested that one registration day be
for Democratic voters another day for
Republican. The same objection ap.
plies to that. Both these plans would
cut down the vote and give the party
bosses opportunity to get list of the
party voters and whip employees into
line.
Now for the benefits OF the law.
Every man who has been even remote
ly identified with professional politics
in the past was defeated. Three Of
the best aliermanic candidates nomin-
ated avowed that they would never
have encountered the cumbersome pro-
cesses and devious startegy Of con-
vention, but would go before the peo-
pie under the new primary law. II has
brought out class of men for candi-
dates that never would run before, and
the success Of these men will bring out
larger number of their kind at the
next primary"
