CAMPAIGN BOOKS DESTROYED.
Not Even the Bookkeeper Can Tell
How the Funds Are Distributed. =

(Walter Wellman in Success.)
At the close Of h campaign of
1S96-which was by long odds the
greatest political campaign ever seen
In this country-Mr. Hanna rested
from his arduous labors. At the last
moment there came an urgent appeal
from Nebraska for another allotment
of funds. "If we had fifty thousand
more" t~elegraphed the chairman Of
the Republican committee In that
state. 1--WE would carry Bryan's own
state for Mckinley" Mr.. Hanna
wanted to help the men who had
made such a gallant struggle for the
electoral vote of Bryan's home, but
he did not suppose there was a dollax
left in his treasury, and It was TOO
late to get out and raise mSS.re' ne
was about to wire his refusal, when
Secretary Heath remarked:
IF it is only lack Of funds that
troubles you, you need not stop, Mr..
Hanna. We have more than a hun
dred thousand dollars on hand!"
What" exclaimed Mr.. Hanna,
the campaign at an end and money
stfil in the treasury? 1 never heard of
such a thing. Are you sure ?"
Mr.. Heath produced the books to
prove his statement, and the Nebras-
ka committeeman got the fifty thous-
n dollars they wanted, though they
were not successful in carrying the
state with It.
During national campaigns the
books Of the treasurer and manager
are kept in a peculiar way. Instead
Of entering accounts by name, each
account is given a number. and is
thus carried throughout the cam
paign. The key to this legendary sys-
tenn is knOwn only to two OF three
trusted men, and the accountants
who kept h books have not the
slightest knowledge Of what state
committee or other organization or
individual stands behind the number.
After the campaign is over the books
are burned and all the records, ex-
cept possibly some private memo
randum, kept by the manager, are
wiped out OF existence. Such a thing
as h auditing of campaign expen-
ditures was known, and proba-
bly, never will be known. SO far as ma
tional campaigns are concerned. Ev-
erything is trusted to the honor Of
the responsible men, and 1 have
never heard that any OF the managers
OF a national campaign were suspect
ed of betrayal of their trust In any
way.

IA late dispatch from Paris stated that
there is strong and growing official
feeling there that France, Great Bril-
tain, and the United States should en-.
deavor to avert tie danger OF Japan's
victory being SO great that she may be-
come the dominating power in the far

sympathy being with Russia. there Is
such a feeling as reported. but it will
have no influence either in England or
the United States. the people of both
