The Cost of a National Campaign
While it is said to have cost only
$200,000 to elect Abraham Lincoln in
18G4, four times that sum was spent
in the Hayes-Tilden campaign of 1870,
wihle in 188?? with tariff as the issue,
$2,000,000 was said to have been used-
by both sides, and the figures have
jnounted upward 'since in some of the
later1 campaigns. It 'might not* be
without interest at the outset, there-
fore, to dwell upon some of the items
which go to make up these expendi-
tures, and to consider first what is
called by some the “legitimate cam-
paign expenses.” The cost of main-
taining the national headquarters,
with its army of employes ranging
from »forty to one hundred men.and
women", • has been .estimate*! to be
• about $3,07)0 a day. There are stump
. speakers who receive $.100 a week and
’expenses. The distribution of a single
speech in printed form has cost as
much as $5,000, and there have been
campaigns when* twenty of such
speeches have been delivered and cir-
culated. New York and othyr cities
have had torchlight processions cost-
ing as’much as $12,000. While $.1,000
more has been expended for a single
mass meeting for the music, decora-
tions and hire of the hall. But these
are the mincfr items of disbursement.
The heavy ones ai;e made’ out of j
what is known as secret or emerg- j
ency fund. Both sides are continually |
drawing from it, and, usually exhaust
it on the ete of ’election. The fund
is used to turn t1ie tide in states that
are considered doubtful, especially
those on which the general result
hinges—Edward Lissner in JIaqper’ft
Weekly.
We are’all. willing to admit thy de-
pravity of our neghbors.
To the’ housewife who has not yet
become acquainted with the new
things of everyday use in the market
and who is reasonably satisfied with
the old, we would suggest, that a trial
of ’ Defiance Cold Water Starch be
made at once. Not alone because it is
guaranteed by the manufacturers to
be superior to any other brand, but
because each 10c package contains 10
ozs., while all other brands contain
but 12 ozs. It is safe to say that the
lady who once uses Defiance Starch
will use no other. Quality "and quan-
tity must win.
It is hard to be popular with pigs
and to keep out of the trough.
