The speaker said that In the earlier
days of our country, when the cities
were small, candidates for office were
personally known to the most OF the
voters Their fitness for the several
positions was subject upon which al
most anyone was qualified to speak,
because of knowledge of their ca
reers.
To-day when the cities contain great
throngs of people. men are nominated
for office who are absolutely unknown
to nine-tenths of the population. The
only way these candidates can hope
to win support ia through the news
papers. BY liberal use of advertis-
ing space they are able to present
sound reasons why they should be
elected.
II l. not to be denied that the gen
eral public has never taken so great
