Campaign Has Been a Lively One—Re sult In Doubt. ' ‘BostoW, Mass., Jan. 11.—Boston’s nm nlcipal campaign will close with the election of a mayor, city council and school committee today. It is of im portance outside New England because it Is the city’s first essay in nonparti san city government. Whether the ex periment will prove a success is a matter of great doubt. It has been found that to divorce the community from the time honored division into Republicans and Democrats is a diffi cult matter, as Boston has been accus tomed to take its politics straight. John J. Storrow, the banker, and John F. Fitzgerald, the politician, are two of the candidates. Some Democrats who .do not want Fitzgerald will vote In Lecture Before Yale Students He Asserts Thaf Nonpartisan influence j Must Be Exl^cised Through Regular | Organization!— Independence Has, j However, Thrived on Corruption of Leaders—Deliberate Freedom From Party Allianos Often a Cover For Shirking. , Destroyed.

But the paradox is that the influence of the nonpartisan who abhors party must in the main be exercised through party. With respect to the choice of a presi dent he must, if he counts at all, count with one of the great parties, and for the candidate of one or the other his vote must in effect be cast. Whatever his influence, it is likely to be the more ; potent because the more direct if ’t ' is exercised within a party as a recog nized party member. Independence has thrived on the stupidity, despotism and corruption of party managers. It has perfonned notable services in voic ing protest and in inflicting punish ment. But we must still remember the actual necessities of the successful working of our system of government and endeavor to put ourselves in such relation to the extraconstitutional ma chinery of the government as to ex ercise to the fullest extent possible the privileges of our citizenship. Independence a Cover For Shirking. “The regrettable feature of uoiirela- tion to the great parties is that it with draws from their active work men of weight and character who would be strongly influential in the determina tion of party action, and their with- , ^ ^ v. drawal helps to create the conditions state, and addresses were made by wiiich they criticise.

This cannot be ' commended from any point of view. “Every party to be effective must be organized. Condemnation of party organization as such is absurd. If it be deemed important that we have great national parties in order to concentrate political discussions and to make political controversies suitably serve their purpose by having decisions made, so near as may be, by a majority of a vast electorate it is likewise important that these parties be properly organized and managed.” not due to hea^t disease alSne; jlTs- \ya8 at first thought.
