The game in which Dr. Holmes
participated was marked with thrills
from start to finish. Dr. Holmes
casually walked over to the
as a spectator. When, however, he
saw the game was going to be
one-sided affair he offered to “sub

an incredulous look the boys agreed.
The score shows how unfounded

POLITICAL PARTIES
Their Importance, History and Func
tion. By Mrs. Nin. Holliman of
The G. S. C. W. Journalism Claea
“A study of political parties,” said
Lord Bryce “is as necessary as a
study of the Constitution." Political
parties set in motion the very process
of government, formulate policies,
nominate and elect presidents, and
mold public opinion.
The framers of the United States
Constitution did not wish so great
power to be in the hands of political
So <
into two major parties and the issues
at t*akc were settled for the time
being by the party in power.
By 1816, a new condition had aris
en. The National Republicans then
advocated the very principles of their
opponents, whose organization had
ceased to exist. In their place the
Democrats had arisen who upheld in
general principles of former Repub
licans. The newly-named party fol
lowers were found largely in the
South and West. Big business inter
ests in the northeastern part of the
United States found it to their ad
vantage to uphold the National Re
publican Party. The parties thus had
b.come partly sectional in their con
stituency.
Then in 1832, Jackson, a son of
strong convictions, caused a split in
both parties. The Whigs, heirs of
the Federalists’ tradition* arose as
opponents of Jackson. They remain
ed in power largely because their
candidates were popular war heroes.
Following closely upon this group
ing of Whigs against Democrats,
cnm c the War Between the States in
1865. The Democrats were prostrate.
The new Republican party, originat
ing among the supporters of the Kan
sas Nebraska Bill was a fusion of
the anti-slavery elements with the
Free-Soilers.
As long as the government has
many positions to be filled by popu
lar vote, as long as legislative and
executive departments are separate,
as long as Americans are given to as-
■oeiationy, just that long will poli
tical parties fill a vital need
