 The Copper Era is in receipt of the following letter from Woodrow Will son, Democratic nominee for Presi- dent:
 r Sea Girt, N J., Aug. 23, 1912. w. B. KELLY,
 Editor Copper Era,
 Clifton, Arizona My dear Sir:-
 l have been very much gratified by the progress of the work in which you have so efficiently taken part, and 1t seems to me very admirable that the editors and publishers of the country should have lent themselves SO gen. erously and effectively to the work of raising campaign funds by popular subscription. They prove themselves in this matter genuine Progressives, for nothing could more directly pro- mote the great purpose we all have in mind, of putting the government and all that concerns it in the hands of the people than the facilitation and en- couragement of popular subscriptions for the payment of the necessary eX- penses of our campaign. I wish T. press to the editors and publishers concerned directly my admiration and appreciation.
 Cordially and sincerely yours,
 (Sgd) WOODROW, WILSON.
 Wilson and Marshall the Demo cratic candidates are determined that when the campaign is closed, [ the Democratic administration will not be subsequent to the will of a few rich men, representatives of trusts or powerful corporations. The incom- ing Democratic administration pro- poses to faithfully. and honestly repre- i sent all of the people-"Equal rights to all, Special privileges to none."
 In this connection William T. La | mar, writing to the Pensacola Journal, | Pensacola, Florida, says:
 No wonder that the public men | and political parties often put them selves under monetary obligations to men and .''the interests" The public at large knows that the battle is for their own good, and yet often hesitates to lend any momentary as- sistance."
 Having nominated Governor Will son, shall we leave him embarrassed for necessary campaign funds? And, if the people at large won't subscribe to his campaign eXepenses Ga contest for them) shall they go unpaid? Or if paid, shall they be paid by rich men, who would at least think they had claim on the president if he were cleo ted?"
 The large use of money by a few rich men or by corporations is the curse of our politics.
