Close association with American SOL
diers indulging in the sport back of
the battle lines on the continent will
serve to give many thousands of the
soldiers of all the nations engaged IN
hostilities a good insight into the game,
however, and acquaint them with the
rules. SO that when the lighting ends
they will be we'll equipped with the
knowledge necessary for participation
in the sport. American enterprise Will
see to it that the paraphernalla is
available.
That the war thus far has had an
adverse effect upon base ball is only
too apparent from the record in the
minor leagues for 1917. when many OF
pend operations entirely. while those
that did survive were compelled TO
make readjustments Of their circuits or
schedules in order to weather the
storm. 1t is patent now that the field
in 1918 will be restricted and that fur
ther changes are inevitable in the per-
sonnel of the leagues that decide to
try 1t again, but the game will be ben
Gifted in the long run. not only by the
impetus it is bound to receive in this
country after the war. but by the giant
strides for popular favor it will make
in England. France. Germany and other
countries by having its propaganda
spread by the returning warriors.
The question of when the war will
end is one on which the best informed
military authorities are venturing no
opinion. but the longer it continues the
better it will be for base ball ultimate
ly. for two summers of opportunity for
European soldiers to become familiar
with it will serve the purpose better
than one. and three summers Will mean
that the sport will win such a large
number of devotees that it will become
firmly intrenched In the esteem of
populations of the big cities of the con-
tinent across the water.

GADE'S CHARLES XII,

Our friend and neighbor, JAG Bryn.
ildsen Of the Gazette, is a literary
critic Of no little renown, but commit:
ted gross error in his criticism of
John Allyne Gade's latest book, 'King
Charles XII. of Sweden" In the first
place Mr.. Brynildsen declares that
the book is simply a translation of a
diary of Carl Gustafson Klingspor, an
aide de camp of Charles XII. Then
he pronounces the Translator" a poor
English scholar who does not know
enough to reduce the peculiar idioms
of the Swedish of that period to mod
ern English, citing a number of in
stances, and then draws the conclus-
ion that Mr.. Gade could have done a
better job at translation from English
to Swedish and that a two-language
standard of education is a delusion
that cannot be realized. It is rather
unfortunate that Mr.. Brynildsen
should have used Gade's work as an
object lesson to exploit his views on
the language question, for it is decid-
eddy not a case to prove his conten-
ton. There was no such character
as Carl Gustafson Klingspor, nor was
there any aide de camp of Charles
XII. who left so complete a diary to
see the light in America two hundred
years later. Mr.. Gade is an eminent
American architect of Norwegian ex-
traction, whose standing as a man of
letters can best be shown by the fact
that he was chosen as the first presi-
dent of the Observation-Disclosures
Foundation. He has been a frequent
contributor to leading magazines of
the country. In his Charles XII, Mr..
Gade has cleverly worked out a mar.
rative based on information obtained
from a great many sources which he
names in an appendix of the work
How cleverly his work was done is
best proven by the mistake of our
Willmar critic, who criticises him for
too faithfully reproducing the style OF
the language of the time of which he
writes.

aTHEELEcTloN LAWS.

It is well enough for old-line poll
ticians and a reactionary press to
shout for the repeal or emasculatton
of the primary law for the avowed
purpose of centralizing the control Of
political party management, but it is
another thing for a legislator who
cares for the good opinion of the peo-
pie of the State to become responsible
for such measure by it's introduction
or by voting in favor of same. True
political progress lies in the opposite
direction of extending the nonparti-
san idea to state officials, and there
by vastly simplifying the election
laws. If this is not done, the people
will find other means of accomplish
ing the same result, and are even now
organizing for that purpose. The big
interests, legitimate and predatory,
have never been foolish enough to tie
up fast to any political party. Now
when the people show unmistakable
signs of playing all the parties for
what they want, these same interests,
their big daily organs and their coun-
try echoes are Mortified at the audac-
ity of the voters in refusing to stay
put" and are bowling for laws to
compel them to do so.
To attempt to regulate political
parties by law is doomed to failure.
1t is latter day innovation. A true
political party must be free agent
held together by some dominating
principle strong enough to attract and
hold adherents among the voters.
There were political parties existing
in this country from Washington to
Cleveland, but there were no laws be-
fore 1894 to regulate them. Pick up
an old revision of the Minnesota laws
of thirty years ago and you will
search in vain for the subject Of polit
ical parties.
The state should provide and safe
guard simple and fair means of the
lot box and let that be sufficient
aid the Offices to be filled should be
permitted on the ballot. A primary
election should be held to eliminate
minority candidates and the general
election to elect majority candidate
for each Office to be filled. This
would simplify the election machin
cry and greatly lessen the expense
All candidates should be placed on
the ballot by verified petitions of vot
ers large enough and so representa-
tive of the district covered that il
would be evident that the candidate
had some backing for the position.
The ''old guard" Of politicians who
used to pull the strings and contro
the nominations naturally can see
nothing but political chaos and "irre
sponsible government" in the new or
der of things. 1t is their honest con
viction, no doubt. They cannot O,
will not see it in any other light But
dear reader, did you ever know time
when public officials we're so anxious
ly desirious of learning what the sen
timent is of their constituents on ev
cry question coming up? Every am
bilious politician in the country has
his ear close to the ground to hear the
faintest sounds of crystalizing public
sentiment.
No, friends, don't think for mo
ment that the people will tolerate any
changes in the laws which will take
the political power from themselves
and hand it to a bunch of legalizeG
party manipulators.
