candidates for each office receiving
the highest vote at the primary cleo
ton. The parties could then have
their inning at the primary, the min
GRITTY parties contending to place one
candidate with the dominating par
tvs man ON the general election bal
lot. The result in the final election
would be majority election, and nc
voters would be disfranchised.
With direct nominations and its
logical sequence, direct Legislation
and veto power, party organization
in the old sense is impossible. Peo-
pie will have to rally around ideas
and issues and parties would be Gre
ated as occasion required. To at
tempt to adopt a primar'~ election
law that would give any set of men
an advantage over others would be
not only a violation of the spirit of
the law, but would be doomed to
failure. The law should be made to
serve the people, and not the poll
ticians.
In our last two issues we have
emphasized the fact that Kandiyohi
county was in the lead as progress
sive community in the state. The re-

The Special Session.

The political party machines are
doomed in Minnesota, if the legis-
lature Of Minnesota at the special
session will rise to the occasion and
enact a good state primary law
Facing an election, the legislators
will not be in any position to trife
with the duties before it. We look
for a grist Of progressive laws. Gov
emor Eberhart did we'll in calling
the special session. Had he done SO
earlier, instead of being practically
forced to do it, it would have been
more desirable, but better late than
never.
The new primary law should cor
rect the one serious fault of the To-
cal primary We have now, namely,
do away with minority nominations.
Under our present law there is
nothing to prevent one hundred can
didates filing for the same office and
one being elected by one ninetieth
Of the vote. This cam be remedied
by providing for a second choice of
each voter and the elimination of mi
nority candidates by the canvass
ing board, until one of the candidates
secures majority of the votes.
Another still better plan would be
to abolish party names on the ballot
for the final election, leaving the two

Not So Foolish.

The delegates to the district con-
vention at Wilamar Tuesday wee
treated to am automobile ride out to
the Gag farm. We were Informed
that the buildings now Under course
Of construction will cost nearly
100000. It seems to be one of the
most foolish and extravagant things
the legislature ever did when it APP.
!proprated the money for that pur-
pose. By closing up the GIN mills Of
the state there would be no need Of
the flag" farm. Redwood Sun.
Bro. Starr is laboring under q
apprehension. The state appro-
pirates no money directly for the In
ebriate Asylum. The revenue is de-
rived by taking a small per cent Of
all saloon license money In the state
each year.
So the towns who vote license sup
port the Gag" farm. We heartily
agree that the state is foolish to per-
NIT gin mills in the state, but since
it does permit them, small per cent
of the blood money spent in attempt
ing to reform the victims of the traf-
fic are perhaps not misspent.

PREDICTS WAR WITH JAPAN

CHICAGO, Nov. 16.-War between
Russia and England over the Balkan
situation and between Japan and the
United States over the possession of
the Philippine islands was suggested
as a probability before the expiration
of the term of PresiuvnJ-elect Wilson
by Col James Hamilton Lewis at the
second annual banquet of the First
infantry, Illinois National Guard, at
the Hotel La Sale last night.
IF Russia shall become engaged in
war with Austria over the present
Balkan situation" he said, "she will
promptly engage England in some con-
flict in the Orient along the border OF
Russian possessions, bringing her ally
Japan, in conjunction with her This
in order to distract England and pre-
vent England and the United States
lending aid to the European situation
Russia is under the mistaken idea
that the aid of the United States
which was given England in the Russo
Japanese war, was in pursuit of an al
lance between this country and Eng
