Z mate expenses of the campaign. 1t does
not, in his opinion, forbid the employment
and payment OF persons to stand at the
polls on the dav of election to hold and
distribute tickets or to challenge illegal
[ voters What it does prohibit is purchas-
ing votes or influence, and 1t prohibits can
didates from Treating" parties to cigars OF
liquors, ETC., where the purpose in doing sc
is to influence tleir votes, but not where il
is q matter of hospitality at their OWL
