Only TWO MORE BARGAIN
DAYS LEFT TO Rustic IN

test has been planned out in the ut
most fairness. The territory, both in
the city and the country, has been di-
vided into districts so that candidates
in one part of the country will not
be competing with more favorable
conditions than candidates in another
part.
In the city of Salem the interest
is such that friends of candidates
call at the office to learn no wsome
friend IS progressing and letters of
inquiry are received by mail. New
candidates are entering the contest,
and without a doubt it will be the
greatest voting contest ever con-
Quoted by a newspaper.
Check over the list, see what your
friends are doing, what the other can
didates are doing and who will prob
ably win the magnificent array of
prizes.
Still Time to Nominate.
1t is possible that you will not find
the name of the party you believed
would be able to win one of the grand
prizes in the following list. If such
should be the case, you are earnestly
requested to nominate a candidate
yourself You can name any woman,
friend, a relative or il you think
you can get out and get enough votes
to win a prize, you may nominate
yourself, Every candidate is pro-
vided with all necessary information
and subscription books necessary to
conduct an energetic and successful
campaign for votes.
Future Subscriptions.
Contestants may find in some cases
friends who wish to help them in the
contest by subscribing for The Jour
nal but are already taking a local pa
per which is paid in advance, and
not desiring to receive more than one
local daily in their homes at the same
time, the contest department has ar
ranged to accept and issue votes on
all such subscriptions, the paper to
to start at any future date the sub
scriber may designate.
Industrious Forge Ahead.
The list of candidates and the
number of votes received by each
show that the industrious are forg-
ing ahead in the battle of the ballots
The votes are free, but in many
cases it is necessary for the candi-
dates to go around among their
friends and gather them in. These
free votes are given for payments on
subscriptions, for new subscriptions
and also for coupons and nomination
blanks printed in the paper daily. The
votes on the subscriptions are free
and the number is in proportion to
the amount paid at the regular rate.
Small Payments.
Candidates that have taken sub
scriptions for one, two or three
months at the beginning of the con-
test should get these subscribers to
pay the rest of the year as they are
still considered new.
For example, person who sub
for the paper and paid SO cents re-
ceived 700 votes, by getting them to
pay $3.50 more you will be given
5000 votes, less the 700 votes you
have already received on the so cent
payment, or 14,300 votes on $3.50
payment. This ruling also applies to
any second payment you may secure
Where the paper is taken by mail or
suburban stores the rate is $4.0O per
year is charged a subscriber who paid
35 cents would pay the difference,
1896 and would receive 14,3OO votes,
as second payment, but in all cases,
six months or more must be added to
entitle you to the second payment.
The new months will also count in
on the special offer no win vogue.
When turning in such payments,
kindly mark your stub second pay
ment."
Magnitude of Contest.
The contest, by this distribution of
~, r,n 4
the value attached thereto, becomes
one OF state vide interest. Thousands
OF people will watch closely the stand
ing of the various candidates and for
that reason the standing of the can
didates and the number of votes to
their credit will be published daily
All will then know just where each
one stands and can work accordingly
Second Payments.
A great many people do not under
stand, and for their information we
wish to say that anyone starting to
take the paper since the contest start
ed will always be considered a new
subscriber during the life of the con-
test and votes given accordingly. If
you start the paper now pay some
thing in advance and wish to pay
more later during the contest you
will still be condisered a new sub
scriber and votes will be issued ac-
Open Evenings.
