rlouly minded theae campaign aids may

shrewd old campaigner know full well
that a. wail conceived, well eruted po

party aJoptlng 1 a.-d tha JurVv gont'ja
who oould Invent rtich a thing and sprint
It auocaasfully on a prcTasiv executive
committee at tie prychological moment In
the open lag days of a oampalgn might
make a amail fortuna out of It. It wou d
have to be a thoroughly convincing toy,
though for tha Bam shrewd old political
campaigners ar also wall aware that no
living man can tell In advance how any
given political gtmcrack will take with tha
voters, and tharafora ara particularly cau
tious about expending- good party money
In that direction.
On tha whole, portraits of the presi
dential and vlca presidential candidates
are considered tha safest "glmcracks" In j
which an executive commlrtoo can Invest j
judging from the great preponderance of j
the portrait expenditures over all other
committee glmcrack output during the last
few c&my&lgna.
Pictures r ! Million.
Soma years literally millions of portraits
of all alias, from that of a 10-cent piece
to the side of a barn, are bought by the
committees for distribution In every state
of the union. Purina; one campaign, not
so very long ago, presses printing life
slza candidates' portrait on heavy plate
paper were kept running steadily for quite
twelve consecutive weeks, and a full HedgeJ
shipping department was open and sending
out tha pictures by tha ton the whola
time. There were certain Influential con
tributors to tha party funds thut year who
objeoted strenuously to the expense of the
portrait contracts, but nobody had tha
hardihood t put on tha brakes.
It was In that same year that the two
committees put out a large number of oll
pnlnted portraits of glgantlo sle aay,
elglit feet by ten to hfuig In big halls far
above the heads of the audloncea on tba
wall bach of the speaker These por
traits were In neutral browns and grays
that made them look surprisingly like ti
tanic photographs when viewed from a lit
tle distance, and they were unusually good
likenessesfar superior to the colored
portraits seen on the expensive street ban
ners which have been so prominent In all
recent campaigns.
Everybody who saw these portraits was
struck with their excellence, and a whole
lot of people Importuned their maker to
give up tha secret of their manufacture.
He parried all inquiries skillfully, how
ever, even deollnlng to te'J where - they
were made; but at tha end of tha cam
paign his scheme cam out.
Struck It nloh. ' ''
First of all he got two big mtiglo lan
terns and had CrHt-class transparencies
made of tho two presidential and two vloa
prealdontlal candidates. Then be found a
big, vacant building In an obscure New
England village. He rented this structure
and boarded up all the windows and doors
o that no sunlight could enter the place.
Then when be bad an order for a pair of
portraits ha put the transparencies in bis
meglo lantern, stretched the canvases 09
which the pictures were to be painted tha
proper distance from tba lantarra, aid
turned on the light. Of course the result
was a perfeot Image of each portrait on the
canvas, and all tha man who wielded the
brush hod to do was to slap on the paint
to conform with the Unea and coloring thus
unerringly Indicated.
It Is popularly supposed that political
pull Is required to sell campaign glm
craoks to an executive committee, and this
Is true In some degree; but this man's work
Interested both committees so mightily that
they fell over each other to get his pic
tures. In a short time after his first pic
tures were shown ha had put In halt a
dozen maglo lanterns and employed a reg
ular staff of portrait mailers. Had the ao
tlve camptign lasted a year lnnteud of a
tew weeks he' would have cleared up a big
fortune. As it was ha made a very snug
sum of money out of It enough to give him
a good s'jtnntial start la a psrmaixnt
line of bualueea.
possibly political cartoons should not
be classed as campaign glmoracks, but at
all events the executive committee depart
ment that si tccts anC buys the badges and
buttons and portraits generally takos
chars of tha cartoons' also,
x-owr a4 taa Carieeairt,
At the bezlnnlDg of a reocnt campaign
a cartoonist who had onoe been a greet
power In the land by rason of his graphio
portrayal of th aUortuomlngs of one of
the pullUoaJ parties, but had lost his grip,
dociJed to seek rehabilitation by dulng
campaign ourtooita, Not finding a news
pepor iildi readily, he concluded to strike
one or the other of the oommtttees. He
had shifted his political allegiance In the
meantime and was somewhat doubtful
which party to apply to, but finally de
cided tn favor of tba party of his Brat
love.
His Indication to tha axecutlva committee
that he would be glud to b!p !"-t their
eandMatfl, for a consideration, by miking
fnr them rartoors which they should fur
nish to the nwwspai-ers free of chore's,
cauned a greet flutter Ij that political body,
and It wns decided to employ him at one.
Two oh'"ts aroee, however. There was
one Important artlrle In the party's creed
that he would not support, and he had ex
alted notions as to tha amount of money
he should receive.
It took a long time to get over these
thins. The ertlura repugnance to the
objectionable doctrine wae overcome with
comparative e.e, but the pay was !lner
ent. For awhile neither artist nor com
mittee cony be got to Mini figured at
all. When the artl.t. after many long
pow wows, fixed fAO.ttM) as about the
pmper thing there was consternation
among the committeemen. They argued
the case with him for two dnys and a
tentetlve compromise was reached on $T7,
Bon. This didn't "go" with the committee's
treasurer, thousjh, and as a Inst resort a
committee employ who had some practi
cal knowledge a to "how cartoons stood
in the market" was asked to "fix the mat
ter up." He and the had-been cartoonist)
had several Interviews, some of them
stormy, and the upshot was that, basing
his compensation on the largrest number
of cartoons that could poRihy be used,
the artist was to receive Instead of
tTT.Bffl, or Just one-tenth as much as the
figures mentioned in tha tentative cora
proralsa Par and Promisee.
80 far all was satisfactory. The execu
tive eommitteeeman who had recommended
the taking on of the employe who cut
the cartoonist down nlne-tentha congratu
lated himself. The employe thanked
heaven that he was pleasing tha com
mittee and had visions of a fat and per
manent Job after the close of the cam
paign, providing hla party won. The car
toonist was happy he , while ,750
was by no means $37,600, It w the same
as $S78 a week for ten weeks, or $187. SO a
cartoon, alnca only twenty cartoons were
needed.
But there was more trouble coming. It
was planned that the committee s editorial
board (or whatever it was called) should
pass on each cartoon before It Was senf
out. and the committee employe already
mentioned was to serve as the medium
through which the artist's ideas should be
presented to tho board. Had It been pos
sible for him to get board and cartoonist"
together occasionally there might have
been no friction, but It turned out Impos
sible to do this, or. In fact, even to get
the cartoons passed upon at all, at least
half the time. The result was a ton
weeks' speil of heart disease for the com
mittee employe. Not being able often to
get official sanction , for the cartoons, he
had to put them out on his own Judgment,
only to find, after they were out, in
many Instances, that some member of the
committee objected to the subject chosen
or its treatment. In fact, there was
hardly one of tha cartoons that someone
didn't condemn as sure to "Burchardlxo"
tha campaign. So serious did the situa
tion become before election day that the
unfortuna -r".pIoye had vlaions In his
dreams every night of political cartoons
that eithor missed the point or were posi
tively detrimental to the caune, and of
an 011 fa 'd executlce committee wreak
ing veiiKi'unca upon him for letting the
obJecMuuablG drawing go forth to tha
paper
Tie Poet In Action.
Possibly it la not right to classify cam
paign songs as political glmcracks, either,
but this particular committee employe,
who had to listen to hundreds of them
that campaign, would certainly put thorn
In that category. Before tha active cam
paign was a fortnight old it seemed to him
that every roan, woman and child in tho
country had written, or was about to write,
or at least felt able to write a campaign
song. Apparently every member Of the com
mltteenand every state committee chair
man from the Atlantlo to the FaclHo bad
hosts of song-writlna friend. Anyway,
they all sent songs to the" committee, by
every mail, seemingly, and this particularly
unfortunate employs had to try tha most
of them out.
At first when he took a bundle of manu
script songs and musio homo at night and
asked his wife to play the airs on , the
piano and his daughter to sing tha words,
the were quite delighted with tha novelty
ef it But when, on one never to be for
gotten Sunday morning, he asked both cf
them to stay at home from church and
atrugfrle with efghty-oeven different plecee
of political doggorel and elghty-nevan new
pieces of Inharmonious, unmelodlous scores,
they revolted, gently, to be sure, but with
a dngree of firmness that left no room for
argument They both declared that they
had sung the praises of tho presidential
candidate he was working for until they
were completely tired out; moreover, tmder
the strain of trying tha songa they had
lost Bympathy with the party ha repre
sented, and from that time on until elec
tion day they devoted a good deal of at
tention to arguing with him In favor at
tho opposition party and its candVlataa,
Other TrSEmm.
Of campaign glmcracks proper an almost
liiSnlte variety U clerod to every execu
tive commute, email portraits in tha form
of me1al!lons, buttons and baiigee leading,
of oourne. When fiialn was tha candidate
plume and pompons, from hla aob.-iquet,

Often the glmcrack makere d not ask

A heavy hailstorm visited the western'
section of Pennsylvania recently. At

her husband with a girt, and the family
moved to tha residence of Mrs, Hallett'

An interesting featuro connected with
the burial of former Senator George B.
Sloan of Oswego, N. T., last week waa
the carrying out of a pagan rite at tha
grave by Kitawaga, for many years his
valet. Mr. Sloan was an Episcopalian,
and after tho service at the church the
rector. Rev. L. Q. Morris, went to tho
cemetery, where the final services were
conducted at the grave. At the conclusion
Kitawaga appeared at the head of his
master's grave, and after pronouncing an
Invocation to the gods of his countrymen,
he opened a cage and liberated six pure
white doves. The affair was arranged with
tho consent of the family.
While Claude Robinson and his wife of
