Who is Paying
for the Free Matter?

The following which the newspapers
of the country are receiving on a paid
reply postal card, one of which has
rome to The Journal, is self-explan-
atory:
GOVERNOR JOHNSON FOR PRESI-
DENT.
We are authorized to offer to papers
free of charge, expressage prepaid,
political matter favoring the candl-
dacy for president of Governor john
son of Minnesota.
A page will be prepared once in
three weeks, in which his followers
will set forth his qualifications for
the office.
II you desire to take advantage OF
this opportunity, kindly fill out the
attached postal and mail at once. The
order for this page goes to Chicago,
but p,ates will he shipped to you
from our nearest office.
AMERICAN PRESS ASSOCIATION
Before any self-respecting newspa-
per accepts the above proposition, II
would be proper to ask: who is pay
Ing for this free matter in the inter
est of Governor Johnsonis candidacy
Is the rank and file of the party sub
scribing to fund to pay for it, or
are the special interests which de-
sire the defeat of Mr.. Bryan putting
mp the dough?
The proposition is exactly similar
10 one which appeared four years ago
In the interest of Judge Parker, and
as the interests which were advocat-
ing the nomination of Judge Parker
are the ones which are actively en-
yaSed in advocacy of the nomination
of Governor Johnson, it may reason
ably be presumed that the same ones
who put up the money for Parker
then are putting up the money Tor
Johnson now.
1t will be interesting TO note how
many newspapers will swallow this
free bait, and how the tainted NOR
sci will taste after 1t goes down.
