sHREWD IDEA IN POLITICS
Pictures OF Presidential Candidates
/ on Letter Heads Was a Popular =
{ ....:..,: Thing In 1910. ~ -

Back in the early days of the re-
public it was considered a fine idea
to decorate paper with the portraits
Of presidential candidates. In this way
the letter writer showed not only his
preference, but tried to influence his
correspondents for his candidate, re-
marks the New York Sun. A fine Sex-
ample Of this sort Of political propa-
ganda was unearthed recently in New
York. It dates back to 1910, when
William Henry Harrison was running
for president on the Wing ticket
against Martin Van. Buren,, Democrat.
/. The .letterhead shows the two sides
Of the gold medal awarded by con-
gress to General Harrison for his serv-
ices in the War of 1912. The picture
to the left shows a medallion portrait
of General Harrison, while the one at
the right depicts the Goddess Of Lib.
erty, armed with a. spear, placing a
wreath OF. laurel on an Indian tepee
This latter was, intended as q com.
pliment to the general for his success
in fighting against the British and In
dams. -..~ 49, ~,'S
Under the pictures Of the two sides
Of the medal is a copy of the resolu.

the plans for the drive for S5,OO0 900,
which started yesterday, to pay for the
construction Of the hospita! and an en-
dowment. General du Pont said that in
conducting the appeal for funds, the
only service that would be required
from the men on the force would be
such as would not interfere with their
regular duties. IN no instance, he said
would they be used for the collection OF
funds. The Mayor, however, seemed So
licitous as to just what the patrolmen
would be called on to do.
In his letter to General Du Pont, the
Mayor said: ''T> y. = * !:
"The purpose of the movement Of
which you are president and in which
you are joined by many of the promi-
nent people. of this city is mostlaud-
able, but inasmuch as 1t is an. indel
pendent corporation andy in no way
connected with he city administra-
tion ! feel that as Mayor of the city
it would be presumptuous on my part
to take any step that might interfere
with the high purposes Of the gentle
men associated with you in this move
ment; Nevertheless, under no circup,-
STANCES can give my consent as Mayor
of the city to the; uniformed force Of
the City Of New York being permitted
to take an active part in The raising
OF funds, or in any way being diverted
from the duties for. which they were
appointcd."
From the inception Of the project,
General du Pont said, Police Commits
sioner Enright plainly said that the
methods in the various Liberty Loan
drives. Red Cross and other enter
prises, where the police rendered
splendid service in soliciting contribu-
tions. would not be followed, and the
board Of directors of the hospital were
in full accord with this view. Under
no circumstances, he said, viii The city
be called upon to contribute one penny
toward the hospital or its mainte-
nance.
