visits to Sllibo castle, and promptly
declared for the New York Republi-
can state campaigners were some-
what alarmed, fearing the effect
of the open support of such a cap
itallst. A Republican, talking with
o campaigner at the state headquart-
ers, said
''That interview of Carnegie's ought
to be worth $25,O00. He ought to
contribute that much for the harm
his interviewer might do"
The campaigner took the hint, II
is said, and called on Mr. Carnegie.
When he came away he had learned
that the Republicans estimate was
wrong.
The interview proved 10 have been
worth only $1,000.
