In short, Dladuction as learned and

In developing to Perfect Success the

How to Reach the Voters

This is the one great question that
has, and always will confront the
managers of every political party. II
is one thing to prepare a convincing
brief that will win votes and quite an
other to bring the message home 10
the people.
How can II be done effectively?
Rallies. with music, torch light pro
cessions. fire works, brass bands. etc.
etc. cost money and are held simply
to get voters out to hear the message
as told by siIvertongued orators, pol
.itical spellbinders. etc.
These do not draw as in former
years
The novelty is lacking.
This has proved a most expensive
kind of campaigning after the speak
ers. bands, fire works, etc, have been
paid for.
Another expensive method is the
personal letter appeal coupled with
the circular or pamphlet
The latest and most inexpensive
method of reaching the voters is by
political advertising In the local news
papers that go into and are read In
every home where there are voters.
This was first used in Massachu-
sets with marked results and has
been continued there up to the pres
ent time.
Douglas, the great shoeman, who
knew the value Of good terse, we'll
worded advertising made very effec-
tive use of this method.
p. w. Clement reached the great
mass OF voters in this state with his
message at one-tenth the cost OF any
other method and demonstrated its
value.
Other campaign managers have
used this method since with good sue,
cess.
No other method so surely, quickly
and cheaply reaches the people.
Both Douglas and Clement used dis
play advertisements, plainly labeled
and space enough so that every read
er of every paper could not fail to see
II he did not read the message.
The new chairman of the Republi
can state committee Is In favor oil
this method and says, in an inter
view:
1--WE arc planning to do lot of ad
vertising, believing that this method
of publicity is far superior to sending
circulars and letters broadcast among
the voters, as has been the custom in
previous campaigns"
III possible we will have Secretary
Taft in Vermont for at least two
speeches, and perhaps four, but there
is no assurance of this yet, And We
expect to draft other speakers of ma
tional prominence"
Some people object TO political ad
vertising on the ground that It costs
too much money when the opposite Il
true.
1t costs less than one quarter al
much to carry the message to the PEG
pie as by the old method of campaign
speakers, brass bands, etc.--Burling

OHIO FOR TAFT
Vorys Says State Will go Republican
by 100000

Hot Springs, July 17.-Arthur l..
Vorys independent manager of the
Taft campaign in Ohio, predicts that
the Republicans will carry that state
by at least 100000. Mr. Vorys gave
out this statement after two hours
conference with Mr.. Taft: This is
the time when the Democrats always
carry Ohio In a Presidential cam
paign. Ohio Republicans have their
own troubles and they always inspire
Democratic hope of an eternal split
and bolt. This is the time, however,
when these troubles are settled and
over II II required anything to do
it the claim that the Democrats viii
carry Ohio this fall has completely
settled all our troubles and cemented
all Republicans in Ohio in determi'
nation to elect the national. state and
legislative ticket by 100000 at least"
Arthur !. Vorys talked with Mr..
Taft briefly but will defer any
further extended conference on the
Ohio situation until the candidate has
practically disposed of the work be-
fore him. There are many phases of
the Ohio situation, especially the
Senatorship. that are sure to come in
to prominence rs the campaign pro
crosses. Representative Theodore r.
Burton has insisted that he is not a
candidate for Senatorial honors If
such a course should threaten con-
test that will have any bearing on the
national campaign in Ohio, and Mr..
Vorys has taken the position that the
Senatorship shall not be interfered
with so far as the management OF the
national campaign in Ohio is con-
cerned. When questioned as to
the possibility II keeping the two con-
tests entirely separate he merely re-
piled with the question: HAS not It
been done up to. this timer"

FORAKER SAYS TAFT SURE
Ohio Senator Looks for a Republican
Victory.

Ohio Senator Looks for a Republican
Victory.
Washington, July Ex-senator Jo-
seph b. Foraker of Ohio does not be-
lieye any one has any doubt as to the
election of Judge Taft
so far as | observe" said the SEN
ator, the people have not yet become
very greatly interested in politics and
there is not, for that reason, much dis
cussion. They have been waiting for
the nominations to be made and are
now apparently waiting for the let
tiers OF acceptance from the candid
ates. In the meanwhile the commit
tees are getting ready for work and
shortly there will, no doubt, be the
usual interest manifested. We shall
then know more definitely than II is
possible TO know at this time just
what to expect.
81 do not like to name maiorities by
which any state will be carried but,
generally speaking, do not think any
one has any serious doubt about the
election of Secretary Taft.
Judging from present indications,
there will probably be a number OF
candidates to succeed me in the SEN
ate. 1t will be time enough to bother
about that after we have secured a
Republican legislature
There is some opposition to Gov
Harris on account of his temperance
views and he will no doubt lose some
Republican votes, but. on the other
hand, he will for the same reason
make gains from the Democrats.
1T is toe early to speak with any
dehniteness as to the result of all Of
these currents and counter currents
but, generally speaking, we have nc
uneasiness in Ohio as TO the ultimate
outcome"
