(Undoubtedly, among some poli- ,ticians on both sides, there is plenty of pretense about it— plenty of talking about principles- above-party coupled with vy definite and energetic effor down undernearth to oil up the same old party machinery which the spellbinders are pretending to discard. Nevertheless, much of the cross- |Party appealing appears genuine enough.

For various reasons | they have found it very difficult to get away from the old party forms, but perhaps they are on the y to at least a partial party realignment without that. Whatever else it does. surely the present talk and effort must have its effect on the young peo- ple especially. Few of them seem jto have much ingrained regard |for the sacredness of the ancient | perty traditions, and when they | hear party names disregarded and |the campaigning pitched to a | non-partisan key, the impact on |their more plastic minds is cer- | tain’ to be felt in future years. | Demands Alertness ; The great trouble, from in the jan oriel window at the home of ; viewpoint of an actual party read- jJustment, is that it may be diffi- cult sometimes for the young peo- | this morning, John C.
