New York Herald.
 Democratic campaign plans contem- plate concentration of heaviest can nonading in the last ten days of the canvass. Practically all of the "hur- rah" work will be confined to the last three days in October and the first week in November.
 The attack will be on the personality of President Roosevelt, the imperialis- tic policy of the President and his par ty, eXtravagance. official rascality, the high cost of living and the tncreas sing number of the unemployed

 Campaign Funds Coming Gn.
