DESDB WASHINGTON

mo I'M discurso digno de aquel
sefior don Juan de Robres que
antes de hacer su hospital hizo
los pobres; porque, nadie, en- es-
tos t1ltimos amos, ha trabajado
aqui tanto para los socialistas
como Mr.. Roosevelt. Y, asi, sus
palabras, han sido acogidas iro-
nicamente por la la gente capi-
talista Y no han entusiasmado
nj aun a los republicanos del
elemento rooseveltiano.
A 6stos Sc les ha congelado la
devotion por ell Presidente des-
de que Mr.. Taft fue designado
para sucederle. Deptro de nue.

tie de las gracias, quien reparti-
ra empleos mientras que Mr..
Roosevelt ha dado va todo 10
que tenia que dar; y 10 que Sc
desea es que llegue el 4 de Mar
20 de 1900 para que ese inquie'
to personaie Sc vaya al Africa,
donde Sc aprestan recibirlo los
tigres, los rinoCerontes Y los CO.
CodrilOs.
Ahora, ha hablado contra el
socialismo, despues de haberlo
fomentado. Es possible que prom
to tenga que aprobar el recargo
de las tarifas de ferroCarriles
despues de haberse mostrado
muy hostil a las empresas ferro-
viarias. Los directories de las

el motive para aumentaT el pre-
clio de los trasportes.
OCCASION: la campana electoral

aumento en- los gastos. debido,
principalmente, a que han subj
do los jornales, por exigencias
de los gremios obreros. Y dicen
las empresas :-Si no sc nos per-

diez por cientO, tendremos que
rebajar los salaries.
Esto ultimO no le convene al
partidO republiCano, que esta en-
el gobierno Y que necesita ganar
las elecciOnes de Presidente. 81
por negarse la administration a
autorizar el recargo en- los fletes,
viniera la rebaja en- los jOrnales

New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1908-08-19
By ROBERTus LOVE.

~ LECT1NG a president Of the
United States is a serious prop.
osition with funny side lights
You might call it serio-comic
curtain raiser for the big show that
runs four years. The curtain raiser
runs about four months.
OF course president making begins
year or more before the quadrennial
election, but the real thing starts with
the close Of the second national con-
vention. This usually means the close
Of the Democratic convention, which
has habit Of being held a few weeks
later than the Republican gathering.
Then we know positively who's who
in the running-two presidential candi-
dates and two vice presidential candi-
dates, one set Of whom is sure to be
elected But we can boil the real job
Of president making-the active cam
paign-to a still smaller size Both
campaign chairmen get busy about the
first Of August, and from that time un-
I'll the November election there's some
thing doing in American politics.
they are not the nominees They are
the national chairmen These officials
are supposed to be chosen by vote Of
the national committee Of each party,
composed Of one member from each
state and territory. But in reality the
New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1908-08-19

not by popular vote. Under our sys-
tenn of state electoral votes it is quite
possible for candidate to receive a
majority of the popular vote through
out the country and yet be badly de-
feated in the race for the presidency.
Therefore it behooves the campaign
managers to pour money into the so
called doubtful states. 1t appears that
the Democrats this year regard sew
eral of the middle western, far west
ern and northern states as doubtful,
figuring that they can be carried for
the Democracy by vigorous campaign
ing. The relocation Of the Republic
an national headquarters in Chicago
after Offices had been rented in New
York is taken to mean that the Re
publicans also regard some of these
same states as doubtful and propose
to carry on lively campaigns therein.
One Of the first and most expensive
things to be done by each party man
ager is to take a voting census or poll
of the doubtful states. If you live in
one of these states you may expect
very shortly to be visited by suave
gentleman, who will ask you what
party ticket you are going to vote.
Then you may expect in few days to
receive a visit from another suave
gentleman, who pops the same ques-
ton. One is working for the Demo
cratic national committee, the other
for the Republican national commit
tee. When the poll is finished the re-
suits are put on record at national
headquarters, SO that each chairman
may see just what electoral district,
county or city is weak" from his
standpoint Into the weak sections
hurry and scurry the campaign dol
lars. To buy votes? Oh, dear, no!
Let's not accuse anybody of that. AS
a matter Of fact, there is much less Of
actual vote buying than some persons
imag CINE.

Campaign Deficiencies.

It used to be said that nobody but a
rich man should accept the job Of ma
tional chairman in presidential cam
paign. There was a reason. In sew
eral campaigns the money to start the
ball rolling was not in hand when the
campaign opened. It deyolyed upon
one mantle chairman of the national
committee supply cash for imme-
diate use out Of his own pocket and
trust to luck or love Of the cause for
reimbursement. Sometimes, too, at
the end Of campaign there has been
considerable deficiency.
It is said that Benjamin F. Jones,
chairman of the Republican committee
in 1884, when Blaine was defeated,
paid balance due on expenses Of
100000 out of his own pocket. Cal
vim S. Brice, after the close of the
campaign of 1883, when Cleveland
was beaten, is said to have produced
from his plethoric purse more than
100000 to settle the difference be-
tween what was collected and what
the campaign cost.
But in those days money was by no
means so easy as it is today.

Millions to Run Campaigns.

1t costs lump of cash to save this
country every four years. Somebody
has estimated that about $5,OO0,OO0
will be spent in the present campaign
between the Democrats and the Re
.publicans. Very likely, as heretofore
for several campaigns, the bulk Of the
five millions will be Republican mon
ey, but you never can tell There is
this year a new law prohibiting cor
porations from contributing to the
campaign funds. The money must
come from individuals.
How much are you contributing?
The national party treasurer is al
most as Important as the chairman.
He might more fifty be termed the col
lector, for it is he who must fill the
Golfers of his party for campaign ex-
penses. He must devise plans for rails
ing money, go begging for money, inn
perfume friends and strangers for
money, persuade money, pump money,
demand mo.ey, cry out In his, anguish
for money, money, money!
This country is a great deal bigger
and stronger than it was in 1860, but

The Business Of President Making
Method Of Running National Campaign and an Estimate Of
What It costs-Wde Scope of the Party Chair
mans Duties-HoW the Money Is Spent

in all probability it would have been
considerably smaller and weaker if the
people had not elected Abraham Lin
coin that year.
How much did it cost to elect Lin
coin? Well, the late Leonard SWEET,
who ought to have known, said that
the entire cost to the Republican party
organization for Lincoln's nomination.
including Chicago convention head
quarters, kilograms, music, banners,
railroad fares of delegates and Incl
dentals, did not exceed $500. The
campaign expenses were correspond
ingly meager. Suppose Lincoln had
been defeated for reelection in 1864!
The nation actually was saved in that
most critical year at cost of about
100000 in campaign expenses.
We do things differently now One
reason is that we are bigger, as stated.
All businesses are conducted on
larger scale, including the business OF
president making. Nowadays dollar
does not look so big to politician as
a dime looked in Lincoln's day.
Where the Money Goes.
But campaign dollars are not drop
ped into every highway and byway.
There is a studied method in their
spending. The money goes into the
doubtful states. Presidents, be it re-
membered, are elected by state votes,
