THE USE OF MONEY IN ELECTION

THE USE OF MONEY IN ELECTIONS.
Political organization, which today
means methods for the collection of
money and system for placing that
money where it will "do the most good"
has been reduced to an almost exact
science. 1t is believed by the ablest
political managers that it requires only
a sufficient campaign fund to make the
average voter believe that black is white
or white black. Coteries of able, IN
scrupulous men gathered together, with
harmony of views as to the distribution
of the pluuder, perfect systems for ex,
tracing campaign funds by an ingen-
ious combination Of appeals and threats
with this full treasury they hire print
ing presses, orators and workers. There
remains no limit to their opportunities.
The gradual perfecting of these meth
DDS has brought the American people
face to face with new problem in q
republican form of government. II par
ties are to be permitted to gather mill
ions for influencing an election, what be-
comes of the voters free will? At first
sight it seems an insurmountable OBJ
stacle; without doubt, however, we
shall find remedy, as we have for
many other defects in our system of
democratic government. But undoubt-
edly the time has come when the sub
ject must be given the most serious
consideration. On the face of the stu
alton, there seems to be no law for pro-
tecting the voter against undue and I'M
proper influences, which the ingenuity
of the modern campaign committee will
not quickly circumvent. = Cosmopoli-

He is robust, healthy man today.
Recently he was broken down, phyei-

"For two years L was at deaths door,

Doctors gave up trying to cure ME.
Medicines did me no good. Pain and

lieve it test them. They'll convince
