The Cost Of a Campaign Train.
The cost of campaigning by special
train is not small. A completely com
Portable campaig n train must have pri-
vate car for the use of the man who is
doing the brunt Of the work and his sec
retaries and assistant speakers. Then
there must be another car for the report
ers the press associations, the reporters
of the particular newspapers of the states
through which the train is passing, and
for tho campaig On committees Of the state
There must be dining car. Man may
live by timed goods alone for day OF
two, but a buffet-car trip Of more than
two days is simply murderous The Pull
man Company charges from thirty to fifty
dollars day for the use of its cars. Mos
railroads will attach a special car to {
regular train provided seventeen full fare:
are paid; most railroads charge a dollar
mile for running special train. The
commssary department costs hundred
and fifty dollars more or less, a day
Speakers who are not candidates receive
from twenty five to one hundred dollar!
a day for their services. Frequently thu
entire company of passengers goes to ;
hot ell in city where there is an over
night stop; in some cases the Nationa
Committee pays the landlord, at othe
times the bills are paid by the State o.
the city committee. But it is perfect,
clear that whatever else campaigning b,
special train may accomplish, t keep
money moving.-Lindsay Denison IL
