"THE MEANING OF ELECTIONS"

Charles Zueblin, editor of "The Twentieth Century Magazine" lectured on "The Meaning of Elections" yesterday afternoon.

Mr. Zueblin discussed the recent elections in many states and showed how widespread had been the growth of thoughtful voting, and how energetic the protests against machine politics and boss rule.

A keen interest in political development seems to be at last aroused, if we may judge from the spread of commission government and from the use of the referendum. A broad view of the results gives one clear and encouraging answer as to their meaning, namely, that not since the Civil War have the people voted as thoughtfully as they did last week.
