THE BIG CITIES AND THE PAR
TIES

The great cities of the north are
now more republican than democratic
| in politics, and this fact is based on
party enrolment statistics rather
than upon election figures. But the
second and third cities in size, Chi
cago and Philadelphia, have been
under republican control for several
Iyears-Ph Philadelphia being normally
republican by an overwhelming ma
jority.
The figures for New York city in
1890, just published, credit the re-
publicans with 643,63O and the
democrats with 531,167 enrolled vot-
ers. Over 1919 the republicans gained
260,637 while the democrats lost a.
1900. These figures do not show the
total possible vote for either party,
but they. are more than ordinarily
significant as revealing recent tenden-
cies.
1t has been a matter of common OBJ
servation for 10 or Is years past that
New York city was growing less
surely democratic. Tammany does
not retain it's old-time grip. In the
future either party should have a
good chance for success there, as the
issues and the local conditions may
determine. For it is true, evidently,
that in no one of our great cities is
the electorate now so independent as
in Greater New York.
Whatever may be thought of Hearst
and his press, he has undoubtedly
done much by his frequent shifts be-
tween parties to develop the practice
of independent voting both in New
York and Chicago. The political re-
actions caused by the war have also
intensified the tendency to a marked
degree in the same places. For both
Chicago and New York are immi grant
cities to a greater extent than Phila-
delphia, which has not gone demo-
cratic for a generation.-Springfield

The Socialist vote in this country
which is now fairly we'll tabulated in
dicates the Socialist party has made
no great gains. The Socialist party
has been functioning in politics for
30 years, most of the time under fairly
competent leadership, and has got no
where. 1t will get nowhere. And chief
/ by it will get nowhere in America, be
cause it is a class party. There are
classes in this country; no one who
examines our social and economic fab

ease of movement up and down, clas-
ses do exist. But the party that makes
capital of the fact cannot thrive; for
we deny the fact We have put it out
of our consciousness, bnd whoever
tries to tell us there are classes, and
whosoever tries to ameliorate the
conditions of the lower class, as a

The folks simply won't stand for it.
This country is a funny country

labor laws or what not of social re-

there are no classes, and the classes
might as well fade out. The Socialists
