fact that the campaigns Of county
candidates were carried on withour

ports OF campaign expenditures sub

all of the money disbursed was for
printing of campaign cards and
notices. In the case Of several we'll
known candidates their expense &C
counts assumed the appearance Of
debit side of bankrupt corporation
ledger, while the accounts of other
candidates ran into but few dollars.
Judging from reports received it is
apparent that Lee county office seek

methods than did many candidates
