FUTURE OF NON. PARTIsANs.

Some of the old-school politicians
in Fort Wayne and elsewhere appear
to be not a little shocked and mani
testify distressed at the discovery of a
purpose to continue the movement for
non-partisan administration of Indi-
ana cities. Exuberant over a vic
tory just won, they profess to be I'M
able TO understand why single de-
feat has not effectually killed the
non-partisan propaganda for all time
, Plainly here is another case of the
wish in the role OF father to the
thought. Any deduction which fore
sees the elimination of Independent
movements because of a single tempo
rary reverse is necessarily based up
on the same assumption that sought
to question the sincerity of non-par-
tisanism during the recent municipal
campaign. We believe the future
will supply ample and decisive re-
futation of the charge that the non
partisan movement was inspired by
no higher motive than revenge. and
that 1t sought more than the tempo
rary triumph that defeat of partisan
tickes then in nomination would
bring.

greatest legislative bodies in the
world by so bright and shining a

llightweights that the democratic
tidal wave has swept into office Lewis
is the limit in political fotsam and
