books. that about % cents Of every
dollar had been paid out to bring In
the dollar. Nobody Is trying a dollar
fund this year.
The scheme Mr.. Bliss has brought
out Is n development Of one tried sue
cessfully by william Barnes when ne

which In turn grew out Of Bryan's
dollar plan. This plan was to invite
$40 subscriptions To a special fund and
In return hand out some little hon.
orarium. Mr. Barnes succeeded In
raising 100000 by this pan in the
State Of New York alone when every
body was hard up. MIR. Biiss hopes 70
raise half a million.
Under the Bliss plan local commit
tees are formed In every town In the
country. These committees do the
work OF collecting the $40 subscrip-
lions. To get these committees Mr.,
Bliss made up the biggest mailing list
ever seen. He c~orrcsponded with every
State chairman and through these Of
ic!als got the c0slnty chairmen to draw
up lists OF poss. Die contributors. When
the lists were turned in appeals were
made direct to those IN the lists. The
result is that recently Mr.. Bliss has
been gct,!ns frequently a. much as

The cost OF campaigns. like the cos:

1t was stated publicly the other day
by Henry Morgenthau. who as chair

Of this end OF the game for the Demo.

Democratic needs this year had been
placed at $500, 900. -Four years ago
it was $l.l00. 900.
Tho Republicans have not mad.
public their wv estimate Of expenses.
When the campaign was In its in
fancy they figured II put as about
81, 900, 900. Later the was
raised to 81. 800. 900. And at a still more
recent gathering Of Republicans to
discuss this question certain gentle.
men Of great political experience are
known to have informed young Mr..
Bliss that the high cost Of campaigns
would probably make II necessary
this year to spend close to 81 1000, 900
before November Z.
These estimates arc larger than
those Of rec mt campaigns. But there
Is one notable exception. That was
he famous campaign OF 1896. when
Mark Hanna to beat Bryan and free
silver spent $500. 900. He could have
raised 81 O0 900 that year by the
mere asking. so that his Job war

present wind raisers.
In 1908 the Republicans spent 81
665. 900. the Democrats n much o
than $500. 900. In 1912 the Republi.
cans spent about n million, the Demo-.
Gratis s~l,l50.oOo and the Progressives
s676.000.
The reason why Il costs moro now
to run a campaign is because every.
thing Is higher. The cost Of printing
has tripled. for n thing. campaign
buttons cost twice as much railroad
fares are higher. And so II goes.
An idea Of the dent that some o!
these Items will make this year In the

gained from the fact that In 1905 tn
Republicans spent $4,000 for print.

$4,000 for campaign autographs and
$4,000 for buttons. These are but a
Few Of the numerous expenses a ma

When the Republicans were looking
around for some to raise the wind
this year their eyes fell upon young
Mr.. Bliss, and for n good reason. His
father was the Republ. can treasurer
N three national campaigns. After
some hesitation Mr.. Bliss tool the job.
