Although this is supposed to be the closed season for politics such is far from being the case in Richmond and the city election Is being generally discussed. There has been some talk among Democrats and Republicans of asking the Progressives "to fuse" with their respective political organizations and conduct the flght along strictly non partisan lines. While the idea of taking politics out of municipal affairs is a splendidone and is being adopted with great success in a number of states by establishing some good plan of commission form of government, there can be nothing done toward that end in Richmond until the legislature meets and passes laws authorizing a change in the government of Indiana cities, or in the conduct of municipal elections. Under existing conditions we believe there is not a Progressive who favors his party fusing with any other political organization in the coming city election. The results of the last election show that if the Progressives nominate good men for all of the city offices there is no reason why these men cannot be elected. There Is a possibility that the legislature, which meets next month, will place on the statute books some law providing for a commission form of government for municipalities, or will legislate to prohibit the placing of party emblems on ballots in municipal elections. In either event it would be possible for Richmond to conduct its next mayoralty contest on a non partisan basis. Until the necessary state laws are enacted party lines, the Palladium believes, must be as tightly drawn in municipal elections as in national or state elections. Those hundreds of citizens in the ranks of the local Progressive party who are desirous for an efficient, business-like city administration should be patient until it is known what assistance good government is to receive from the legislature. If the present archaic laws on municipal elections and municipal government are to be retained the Progressive party should nominate a strong ticket and support it with the same enthusiasm displayed last fall and the fusion plan, we again repeat, should not be entertained for It is important to the future development of the party that it enter no alliances at this time with any other political organization. The Progressive party is the leading one in Richmond and Wayne county and, it appears to us, there Is no neccessity for "fusing" "with a less powerful party.
