CAMPAIGN EXPENDITURES.

The opposition to the 'tpaid runner" system
/ in local politics is not opposition to the ex,
penditure of campaign funds for legitimate
lpurposes-it is opposition to thinly- yelled
system of influencing elections by the lavish
use of money. = .-EF%E4 ".
Whether political worker is merely head
quarters clerk or a precinct talyman, or
whether he is the manager of the details of
the campaign, if his services are legitimate
there is nothing wrong in paying him an ade-
quate remuneration. But the spending of
thousands of dollars to induce the runners for
Ireyenue-only to get out into the precincts and
"whoop it up" for this candidate or that party
is not only money wastefully spent but money
evilly spent. 1t takes no undertaking opposi-
ton orator to assert that the political mixture
used for campaign doses-a mixture of money
and argument-has consisted of entirely too
much money in proportion to the argument.
There is no need for an opposition orator to
allege this because the campaign managers
themselves allege it. Two years ago when the
county campaign was over the cutlery against
the runner system reached its height. Now
with new campaign beginning the question
of Opening the barrel again arises
If the campaign managers have acuteness
enough to discern the difference between
legitimate expenses and those that even shade
and if they have backbone enough
to stand out against the sort of politics that
has to empty a barrel to fill a ballotbox, the
question will be settled promptly and no good
candidates chances will be impaired.
Tho sions of tho time mean If they mean
anything, that political parties and candidates
have to present sound issues to the people.
through intelligent publicity or go down to-
defeat A sane and systematic campaign of
education and publicity will get more results
now and a hundred times more permanent
results for the future than all the coin palm
ing that ever induced the doubtful activity Of

Until positive information comes that Field
Marshal Won Moltke has been removed the re-
port will continue to be in the class of the ex-
ceedingly doubtful. 1t is not at all plain that
Germany's plans have gone awry except
through a perhaps unexpected check on the
Belgian border, due to the refusal of King
Albert to allow the passage of the Teuton
troops.

Cough medicines. as a rule, contain a
large quantity of plain syrup. If you
take one pint of graduated sugar, add
"a pint of warm water and stir about
2 minutes, you have as good syrup as
money could buy.
If you win then put "a ounces of
Pinex fifty cents worthy in pint

Syrup, you viii have as much cough
syrup as you could buy ready made for
$3.50. Take a teaspoonful every one,
TWO or three hours. It keeps perfectly.
You will find it one of the best cough
syrups you ever used-even in whooping
cough. You can feel il take hold

ID hours. 1t is just laxative enough,
has q good tonic effect, and the taste
is pleasant.

Pinex is q most valuable concentra-

This plan for making cough remedy
with Pinex and Sugar Syrup is now
used in more homes than any other
cough remedy. The plan has often been
initiated but never successfully.
A guaranty of absolute satisfaction,

of greeting for the New Year with the
best of good wishes and the hope that
this will be the most prosperous year
in your club history
AS a fedora tion-with our 1000 new
members-with all departments busy
with plans and prospects. and harmony
throughout we are expecting great
things. our federation is honored with
places in all programs of state edu-
eational philanthropic and conserva-
tional carnations. Our counsel is
asked state boards dealing with
women and children. and our infiu-
ence Is felt and our cooperation
sought in almost all ate-wide uplGt
movements. NeTily-as one has said
lit is far call from the woman of
savagery-the common property of the
horde, the burden bearer; from the
woman of medievalism. the wife, who
was made a little better than the
slave; from the women who in the six
teenth century, sought for recognition
in the field of religious work and were
refused; from the woman who in the
eighteenth century begged that she
might read and write. and was treated
with sCcrn; from the women in the
nineteenth century who demanded
higher education and was approved
to the woman OF the twentieth CEN
fury who is given 81 place in the coun-
Gil chambers of our state
I want to thank all who have sent
personal cards and notes of greeting.
1t makes the work a whole lot easier
to know we have the confidence and
interest OF our co-workers.
Cordially yours.
