Political Meetings.

During the recent political campaign
the Republican state committee proVid'
ed for 53e meetings and 726 speeches
were made under the assignment OF
the bureau, which had 1O5 speakers on
its list. 1t required 1882 kilograms and
8 500 letters to arrange these meetings.
Besides the foregoing each county
provided, through the local committee,
numerous meetings to be addressed by
home talent. and in addition to all
these the press bureau supplied an
abundance of reading in various forms.
And this is only the work of one politi-
cal party. Politics is an expensive
thing.

THE desperate effort OF the sore-head

legislature exposes the entire scheme
in all it's villainy. With the Foraker
men against Hanna and the Hanna

fairs would result that could end in
nothing but Democratic success in the
State. Happily, the Republican party
long since learned to be suspicious OF
everything Democratic.
