Another good feature of the bill is the big cost in saving to the! candidates, As elections are now carried out a candidate usually pays expenses and railroad fare for the travelling voters to come home and cast their ballots and this expense money amounts to more than one would imagine.” ———ee P The Washington Star says that there are enough candidates in that city for the office of public printer to fill the position for several de- cades if each were given his turn at ic. The Star also says: “Among those who have been rec- ommended to the president for pub- lic printer is N. J. Lillard, of Pen- sacols. His name was taken to the White House by Senator Fletcher, of Florida, chairman of the Senate committee on printing and of the joint printing committee of the two houses. Senator Fletcher's recom- mendation will have considerable weight, it is believed.” Sl R P A T The votes-for-women hysteria in England shows signs of collapsing.
