CAMPAIGN FUNDS.
Does Not Approve of the Presidents
 Suggestion

In Indiana the committees used to pay for printing the ballots and to- meet the total expenses of an election. the ballots arc now printed and paid for by the state, Tn the ola days prim- aries were mere part of the party machinery and the cost was defTayed out of the campaign fund. Now they arc very generally under the control of the state or of the county, arc treated as elections are treated, and are paid for out of the public treasury Thus, though there have been no grants to parties on account Of cam paign funds, we have voted money to pay for things formerly paid for out of campaign funds.
 However, there ought to be . limit to certain tendencies, and we think this should be so here. The state is intes- ested in having honest elections and primaries, for on getting these de- pends the quality of public service But when it comes to the business of per suading and Influencing voters, we think the case is different It is hard to see why the people should be taxed to pay for campaisn oratory, for unl- 1 forming campaign clubs, for the ser vice of ward and precinct workers, or ! for hiring halls. These arc matters | with which the public authorities have nothing to do Nation and state are interested in seeing that an honest re- suit be reached, that the men elected are fairly elected but either is inter- ested in seeing that one or the other man be elected. In other words, there i are certain expenses which the public ought to pay for-and it now mostly does pay for them-but there are oth- CTS which it ought not to pay for, with the pecp,e pa@,ag for ballots, election oiliccrs and priNayies, there ought to be much less need for campaign funds than there was in the old days. With proper legal restrictions and provis- ion requiring the utmost publicity there would be no need to tax the peo- pie for campaign oratory. y.-Indianapo- lis News.

 E, c. Chapman, brother of the Rev. J. Wilbur Chapman, D. D., will be present to speak to the various com mitteemen. pr. Chapman who has just closed a campaign in Holyoke, Mass, is now conducting another very successful campaign in Fall River, Mass.
 Tn commenting on the work in that city the Fall River Evening News says editorially:
 Not for twenty years has there been such strong and concerted effort on the part of the churches of the city to take hold of the community and lift it Godward The plan if campaign is unique. There is nothing of it's magnitude in operation in the country. The effort is wholly unsectarian. The dehlre is to reach as many people as pogsible, without distinction of race or religious afiliation, and lift them into z better appreciation or the will of the Cicd and Father of us all, into greater deference to that will, and consequent- ly into deeper spirit of righteousness and brotherly love, The men who have me, upon invitation, on this mission are sane, earnest and ardently devoted to the work they have undertaken. Trey are skilled in this work, the plan of which has developgd under the in flue o Of experience ia it or, as they lelieYe, under the influence of the spir- it of God, Their monye is the public good, They aim to build up and strengthen the religious forces now and heretofore operative here pr, Chap man himself says that he shall regard the mission as a failure unless it shall strengthen the hold of pastors upon their churches and give them strong CT blcEing for aggressive Christ;aA work. They desire to be used of Cod to promote the very things which the churches were planted here to p.o- mote

HOME NEWS. HIGH SCHOOL, GRADUATION EXERCISES. AT THE TOWN HALL, FRIDAY
 EVENING.

| The affection and interest the people of the town have in the High school | was shown in the great audience which packed the Town hall to the doors, Fri l day night, despite the intense heat and sultry weather. The ugly colors of the l walls of the hall were entirely hidden under the tasteful decorations so well arranged by the young people. Stream CTS of the class colors, pale blue and gold, were suspended from the central | chandelier to the side walls, while on | the stage the same colors predominated. Ropes of laurel were arranged along the sides of the walls and on the gallery front. On the back ground which of dark green banked the side wings of the stage the letters N. H. s. '07 were marked in gilt. while across the central curtain. which was similarly covered with evergreens was pale blue band bearing the class motto ''Non scholae, sed vitae'' in gilt letters.
 Shortly after 8 o'clock to the strains of the piano music the High school pupils marched to their places, pre- ceded by Principal Jewell and assistant teachers, Misses Snow and Ganong. the High school committee, and Rev Messrs George, Fox and Barker. The order of exercises was as follows:
