success. From all parts of the ter
ritory embraced, candidates have en-
tered the race, and they are receiv-
ing loyal support from their home
communities. This makes the con-
test a uniformly fair one, and no can
didate has yet received enough votes
to give a lead that cannot be over
come.
Another feature about the contest
that makes it extremely popular,
and which is causing interest to
spread over the country at a rate
unsurpassed in history, is that prizes
of equal value will be given in each
district, with the exception of the
capital prize, the Ford automobile,
which goes to the girl with more
votes than any other in the contest.
In each district there will be
awarded an equal number of prizes
to the young ladies. The large num-
ber in the contest assures the can
didates that no one person will be
able to secure such a large number
of votes that others will not be able
to overcome the lead The prizes Of
fered are magnificent, and the con-
test is still young. If you are can
didate and there are others who have
more votes in the contest to date
than you may have, there is no cause
for encouragement.
AS an incentive to the contestants
during the first few weeks of the con
test the management has decided to
offer special inducements for new
subscribers which is bound to meet
with the approval of every contestant
for the reason that during the next
week every twelve months subscrip-
tion to the Capital Journal turned
in will entitle you to 10000 extra
votes. Yearly subscriptions will new
er count for more.
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, a person who sub
scribed for the paper and paid so
cents received 700 votes, by getting
them to pay $3.50 more you will be
given $4,000 votes, less the 700 votes
yo uhave already received on the so
cent payment, or 14,3O0 votes on
$3.50 payment. This ruling also ap-
plies to any second payment you may
whether paper is 35 cents per
month; but in all cases six months
or more must be added to entitle you |
to the second payment. The ney |
months will also count in on the spe- |
cial offer now in vogue. When turn
ing in such payments kindly mark
your stub second payment"
