WHAT STUMP SPEECHES cosT.

Campaign Orators Paid from One Hun
dred to One Thousand Dollars u Week.
These are the palmy days of the cam
paign orator, and to the number of
over two thousand he is now being
heard throughout the land. Many of
these speakers, according to the In
d~landpolis News, are under the direc-
ton of the several state committees,
but the movements of a large number
are controlled directly by the. national
bodies. The members of the latter
class are nearly all mon of national re-
pute, and their efforts are confined in
the main to the close and doubtful
states Committeeman William NJ.
Hahn, of Ohio, directs the movements
of the speakers who labor under the
auspices of the republican national
committee, and Committeeman Bradley
Il. Smallcy, of Vermont, those of the
democratic speakers. Their task is
neither an easy nor n pleasant one.
Some orators decline to speak in small
towns, and others of less extended
fame insist upon being scheduled for
speeches in New York and other large
cities. But both Hahn and Smallcy are
very successful in smoothing over these
difficulties, in impreSsing the different
orators with the fields in which they
can do the most good, and in pcrsuad-
ing them 10 accept the assignment for
which they have been scheduled.
Formerly the cost of stump speeches
wa the largest item in n bill of cam
paign expenses, but it is ve:y different
now. The great majority OF campaign
speakers, aside from their necessary cx-
pcnses, receive no ro:om2onse for their
services; those of the first class never
do. Mr.. Blaine has never been paid for
his speeches, a1d the late Senator Conll-
ling not only refused pay for his
services in n campaign, but always in
sisted upon paying his expenses,
and was careful to take receipts there
for. Still there are quite a number of
attractive speakers who are not only
paid. but well paid, for their speeches.
Some receive one hundred dollars a
week and expenses, and Il very few as
high as n thousand dollars q week.
There are not wanting those who make
Il business of campaign speaking and
have no other regular means Of sup
port. One speaker, Il well-lInown cX-
congressman, has been employed for
several years by the national commit
tee of his party at Il handsome annual
salary.

STILL HUNTING FOR GOLD.

Queer Life of an A~rSonaut Who Continues
to DO Placer Mining.
Along the strip of Seabeach south of
the Ocean house, near San Francisco,
there ave recently sprung up several
placer mining camps Of primitive pat
tern. One Of the most unique charac-
tiers about the place is Abraham Wei
lington through, an original Argonaut,
who has made and spent several for
tunes in California. Birough has been
styled the mayor Of the beach combcr5,
and every possible title of authority in
connection with the camp has beer at
tributed to him, despite the fact that
he IL now said to be ''cradling' sand for
the munificent stipend of fifty cents a
day and found"
Birough is n queer sort of q genius.
His hair has never been outraged by
the wanton snip of the scissors during
the past half century. As q conse-
qucnce, the old man appears to be scv-
cral inches taller han he really is. lie
is no dwarf, however, as without his
hirSute crown he stands moro thar six
feet high. Somehow or other through
seems to have been conceded to be the
bad man of the camp. He is an original
forty-nincr, and since he first struck
California he has been engaged cxclu-
sivcly in gulch and gravel mining.
Birough has had many ups and downs
in his career. Ills first mining expo
ricncc was at Yankee Bar on the middle
fork of the American river. He was ex-
ceptionally fortunate with his claim
and is said to have got more than one
hundred thousand dollars worth of the
precious metal. This soon slipped
through his fingers and he once more
ehouldered his prospecting outfit and
began to search for another rich mine,
which he found in due time in Placer
county. a second fortune came quick
~ and went the same way. Since then
Birough has never been able To strike
it rich" but even now, when he is work.
ing for fifty cents u day and board, his
sporting blood is as warm as of yore,
and whenever pay day comes around lie
takes n trip to the city and returns to
the camp dead broke"

PANHANDLE WHEAT.

Alderman White Of the Third ward
who is recently home from an extended
trip in the Panhandle, says he never saw
such great promise for mn oycrwhelm-
ing wheat crop rs that country now has.
In his opinion. if there is good rain
or snow in February, the rolling stock
Of the Denver will be inadequate to
transport the lavish production Of the
Panhandle acres. Mr. White was back
from the line Of the Denver and his
comment is applicable TO all the country
he went over. In consequence he snys
the many boomers OF that rapidly deyel-
oping region are .mor jubilant than
they have been since the bountiful yield
Of wheat was realized two years ago.
