When, with all the women voting, there
are 100000 voters in the United States
to choose between dozen candidates for

en- expensive thing for any one candidate
to carry his campaign to them.
After the noinations are made the po-
litical organizations gather the funds and
manage the spending, and generally they
avoid shocking the citizenship. Aseitizen

build up his organization and do his own
