In addition to the regular news service
hundreds Of electric bulletin boards
have been erected In the different towns
and cities and these will show the prog

have been made for 20 special writer's.

to handle the stories written by them.

coIoneps Costly Campaign.

Commenting on the use OF money
BIZ the Roosevelt management, Chair
man Mckinley of the Taft committee
said: when the senate Investigated
the charges made against Senator Ste
phenson it found that his expenditures
in the campaign before the primary
amounted to little less than two dol
lars a vote. 1t now develops that the
campaign in the interest of Roosevelt
before the New York primaries, which
elected delegates to the national con-
vention, required the expenditure OF
four dollars vote"

Mr.. Taft's Two Failures.

President Taft calls for legislation
on the cotton tariff rates, in accord
ance with the recommendations Of
his tariff board.
When the Aldrich-Payne bill was
passed. Mr.. Taft had the best sort of
opportunity to bring about the condi-
tons he now advises by vetoing the
measure and demanding proper rates.
Again, he was given chance to Sc
cure results he now recommends when
the house passed the cotton SEIZED
ules bill, last summer bill substan-
TALLY in accord with the present board
plan.
Having failed twice to avail himself
of the opportunity 10 secure just the
he now seeks to have adopt
ed, the president has no occasion for
surprise in failure Of congress to
make special haste in following his
present recommendations.

Man aehInd RooseveIt.

We have no idea that the third.
term candidate can be nominated. He
pretends to be fighting for the people,
and yet he is making pre-convention
campaign, the like of which was never
seen In this country. 1t is said that
already million dollars has been
spent in his behalf. No one has de-
MED that Perkins, the steel trust and
the harvester trust. are furnishing a
large part of the money that is being
used to foist this man on the people.
And this will be remembered at the
polls, If 1t becomes necessary.

MEN WHO ARE FINANCING CAM
PAIGN OF THIRD TERMER."
Recently Published Report Makes In.
terestlne Reading for Those Who
Have Regarded Roosevelt as
Enemy of Monopolies.

At last we have some light on the
cost Of the Roosevelt campaign. The
Roosevelt league has just filed with
the New York secretary OF state its
report of money spent in New York
city alone in connection with the cleo
ton OF delegates. This campaign cost
$59,125.75 That seems large. But
then the Roosevelt people have plenty
of money. There are no official re-
ports of expenditures in other com
munities, but II the pace set in New
York Is maintained the total cost OF
the campaign to date must be very
great. It has been said that Boss Finn
of Pittsburg had more than two hun
dred thousand dollars at his disposal.
It is certain that he had all he needed.
OF the $4,000 spent in New York
city, $45.OO0 was given by George w.
Perkins, Frank A. Munsey and Alex
ander Cochran-S15, 900 by each. Mr..
Perkins is chiefly known to fame as a
director of the steel trust and the or
ganizer of the harvester trust Mr..
Munsey is said to be the largest tndt-
vidual holder of the common stock OF
the steel trust Yet these two men
gave more than half OF the large
amount spent in New York city dur
ing the late campaign in Dehalf OF the
man who is supposed to represent the
people in a special and peculiar sense,
the man who has declared his hostii
fly to the "swells" whom he has char
acterized as silk stockings"
And it is necessary to spend all this
money to get nomination which the
people are supposed to be thrusting
on him. Even popular uprisings and
Overwhelming demands" must, 1t
seems, be literally financed. We trust
that those VINO still think OF Theodore
Roosevelt as a fire-breathing trust
buster will note the fact that it is the
Roosevelt league which has published
to the world tho muniticence OF Per-
kins and Munsey. But then 1t was
never difficult for Mr.. Roosevelt to get
money for political purposes. Harri-
man, 1t will be remembered, raised
and gave $260,000 for use in New
York In the Roosevelt campaign OF
1904, and did it in response to the re-
quest OF Mr.. Roosevelt himself.-In-

HvsterIa win Avail Llttle.

Political campaigns are invariably
accompanied by hysteria. the intensity
of which is proportionate to the pow
err that calls it forth. A demagogue.
with oratorical gift and personal mag
netism, such as Mr.. Roosevelt is often
able to persuade his auditors TO act
contrary to their convictions. A yell
Of FIRE" will always start panic and
the shout of turn 'em out" will al
ways be echoed. II this country is to
prosper its political issues must be
solved by thoughtful people and not
by frenzied emotionalists.

Mr.. G. T. Perkins contributed SIS,
600 to Theodore Roosevelt's New York
campaign for delegates, and there
we're other large contributions, but 1t
is not charged that any of the money
was used corruptly. 1t costs lot OF
money to make the kind Of cam
paign all the presidential candidates
are making, and as yet congress has
not put any limitations on such ex
Denditures.
