1t is quite evident that the cost Of
a presidential primary campaign is
out Of all proportion to the value Of
its influence on the sovereign voter,
who almost invariably has his mind
made up from his pre-campaign read
ing Of current and not campaign
literature. The result would have
been very little different, We fancy,
if all the presidential candidates
boosters had kept their money in
their pockets. We would like some
day to see an election held without
all this fuss and feathers, this flood

United States that has followed a hull
