THIS CANDIDATES.
EXPENSES ONLY $6.7j

Among the accounts of ex-
penses i'm the recent election
which have been filed in the past
day or two is that of Mary l..
Geffs, socialist candidate for city
clerk. The total is $6.75 and
none of it was spent for candy,
cigars or other similar articles
for promoting general good feel
ing among her constituency.
The chief item is unusual. to say
the least-"Loss of time on account
of misspelled name on official ballot,
10" Then follows "Car fare on ac-
count of same. $3.50" The other
expense is the only one which seems
to have been inevitable, Fee for fill
ing account $0.25.
1t appears that the name on the
ballot was spelled "Geffe," instead
of "Geffs," but Miss Geffs was insist
ent that it should be corrected. no
matter if the entire issue of ballots
had to be destroyed. She passed a
great deal of time in trying to bring
about the correction, but was unsuc-
cessful. Whether or not the mistake
aided materially to defeat the social
list candidate for city clerk can now
of course, never be absolutely solved;
but, no doubt. there are some who
think that it did.
/ Auditor Albion X Vickerys ex-
penses in total amounted to Slips.
OF this, 5000 was the assessment of
the republican committee, while only
$50 went for candy and cigars.
. Those who were elected are COM
PEELED by law to file an itemized
statement of their contributions and
general disbursements during the
campaign or forfeit their onice while
those who were defeated are not
forced to do so, but are expected to.
AS a result, many of the unsuccess-
full candidates have not filed. and will
not, the list of their eXpenses.-Den-
