The expen ses of all'these speakers are paid, but their services are generally given without exjiectation of monetary re ward. In the case of men with ex ceptional gifts of oratory, or of those who cannot afford te neglect their busi ness without a money recompense, fees are paid, though an eflbrt is generally made to keep such payment secret, as when it is known the orator is looked upon as a special pleader and bis arguments carry little weight. The result of this flood of campaign oratory is an open question. As Republican mass meetings arc attended in the main by Republican voters and Demo cratic mass meetings by Democratic voters the number of converts made by them must be small. Still they serve to create enthusiasm, to maintain and discipline, and, as it were, to close up and steady the party ranks. Very use ful for the same purpose are the cam paign clubs and societies, whose or ganizations and equipment cost in the aggregate a large sum. The moneys which a National Committee gives to Its several State committees are sent grudgingly and the latter are always urged to raise all they can themselves. The routine work of a national eom- mitttee requires the renting of spacious quarters, the employment of a large force of clerks, stenographers and mes sengers, all of whom are well paid for their services, and the committee gen erally sustains thejexpenses of the party parades and demonstrations held in New York city during the campaign months. These parades and demon strations do not materially alter the re sult in the metropolis and are not ex pected to, but their influence as impos ing partisan spectacles are believed to have a good effect upon the country at large. Thus it will lie seen that while the sums of money collected fer cam paign pur|x>ses swell yearly, the ways of spending them more than keep pace with the means of raising them. With the growing use of money in politics it has been found more and more desirable that the chairman of a national committee should be a man of large private fortune, with a credit and business status which inspire confi dence and respect. When subscript ions are slow in coming and he has as yet only promises in lieu of cash, he must become responsible for or ad vance tlie funds needed to meet cur rent expenses, and these advances often amount to several hundred thousand dollars. If there is a shortage after the campaign is ended he is the one who is looked to to make it good. In 1884 B. F. Jones, chairman of the Republican National Committee, was compelled to make up out of his own pocket a defic- iency of $100,000, and" those in a posi tion to know state that the debts of the Democratic National Committee paid liy Senator Calvin S. Brice, after the close of the campaign of 1888, were rather over than under half a million dollars. The latter faet, perhaps, ex plains in a measure Senator Brice's reluctance to assume the management of the Democratic campaign this year. The cautien of contributors coupled to the close watch which one National Committee keeps on the doings and disbursement of the ether reduces te a minimum the possibility of campaign funds being misappropriated. Though they are disbursed in a large measure on honor, and a final accounting is seldom had, still their management is governed as far as possible by strict business rules, and handled as they are by men of the highest character and integrity, instances in which they fail to reach the channels for which they were in tended are very rare indeed. It can, I think, lie said with truth tlvat the funds of a national committee are as carefully managed as are those of any large busi ness corporation. In 1888 Post-master- General Wanamaker was at the head of the finance committee, which had iu charge the work of raising the Republi can campaign funds, and carefully supervised all disbursements for which he received vouchers. Still, as I have just said, the disbursements of the party funds is in large measure a mat ter of honor, and the innovation intro duced by Mr. Wanamaker may not be repeated. Tlie financial affairs of the Republican national committee are this year in the handsof CorneliusN. Bliss; andjhis selection as treasurer was gen erally voted a most admirable one. Commercial New York he knows per fectly, and he possesses in full measure the esteem and confidence of her capi talists and money kings. Under his direetion there will be no stress of finances in the Republican committee. The Treasurer of the Demoreratic National Committee is Robert B. Roose velt, a member of one of the old Knick erbocker families, a forceful leader of his party and a business man of high standing. Mr. Bliss will be assisted in the work of raising funds by ail Advis ory Committee of five. The New England member of this committee, it is said, will lie Senator Nelson W. Aid- rich of Rhode Island. Mr. Aldrich is a man of exceptional shrewdness and jiersuasive powers, and is believed to be better fitted to raise money than any other leader of his party in the New England states. His personal ac quaintance among the wealthy men of his own adjacent states is very large. Benjamin F.»Jones of Pittsburgh will probably represent the Middle states on the committee. He is a skillful politician, who knews the great indus tries of Pennsylvania thorouhly, and was chairman of the National Cein- mittae in 1884. Another Pennsylvania meinber of the committee may lie Ham ilton Diss ton of Philadelphia. Jesse M. Spaulding of Chicago will be one of the Western members of the committee. He is ex-collector of the port of Chi cago, a man of wealth and identified witli many of the leading financial in stitutions of his city. The other west ern member of the committee will doubtless be Senator Philetus Sawyer of Wisconsin. Senator Sawyer, lie sides being a battled scarred political veteran, is an ardent supporter of Presi dent Harrison. He is very rich, having been engaged in the lumber business for many years, and knows all of the leading business men and politicians of the northwest. Senator Sawyer gives liberally himself and can always be de pended upon to make others do the same. So it will be seen that the fi nancial part of the Republican cam paign is in good bands. Treasurer Roosevelt will have tlie assistance of a campaign committee composed of Sen ator Calvin S. Brice, Senator Arthur P. Gorman, Lieutenant-Governor Wil liam F. Sheehan, Senator M. W. Ran som, Benjamin T. Cable of Illinois, Bradley B. Smalley of Vermont, E. C. Wall of Wisconsin, and Josiah Quincy of Massachusetts, and of such men as William C. Whitney and E. Cornelius Benedict. Mr. Whitney, who is the personal representative of Mr. Cleve land in the present campaign, is a many times millionaire and in close touch with the wealthy members of this party. Mr. Benedict is a rich Wa'l- street broker, and a warm ]>ersoiial friend of the ex-President. It is said that between them they have already raised a round quarter of a million for use during the campaign. From whom in the main do the funds thus collected come? The an swer is, from large corporations, who, conservative and cautious, favor reten tion of the party in power, and from wealthy individuals who take a patri otic pride in the success of their cause. To name the men who are the chief contributors of the republican and democratic funds would be a very difficult if not an impossible task. The Republican list would include Post master-General Wanamaker, who, with some of his personal friends, collected several hundred thousand dollars for use in the campaign of 1888; Andrew Carnegie, George M. Pullman, Phil Armour, Stephen Elkins and others too numerous to mention. The Democrats, on the ether hand, always count with safety upon libera) contri butions from Arthur Sewall, Frank Jones, John R. McPherson, Oliver H. Payne, John L. Mitchell, ex-Mayor William R. Grace, Governor R. P. Flower, Henry Villard and other mil lionaire members of their party. Frank Jones, who is one of the richest men in New England, always gives freely him self and, what is more important, is very successful in inducing others to do the same. The sama is true of John L. Mitchell, who is the wealthiest man in Wisconsin, and of ex-Mayor Grace, who, in a campaign in which liis in terest is fully aroused, is capable of splendid work in a financial way. When Grace takes his coat off iu a fight there is sure te be all the money that is needed for the battle. Gover nor Flower, in collecting campaign funds, follows a method that is all his own. He makes out a list of those up on whom he intends to call, witli the amount which he thinks each man should give set opposite his name, head the list with his own subscription for a generous amount, and then goes the rounds. As upon those who Gov ernor Flower calls are rich men Geo. E. Hatcher, one of < 'aptain Mc Grath’s secretaries in tlie city delivery department of the postoffloe, is prepar ing a unique exhibit for the postoffice at the World’s fair grounds Part of Mr. Hatcher's duties is to decipher l»ad« ly addressed letters after all the postof fice experts in that line have failed. In this Mr. Hatcner has no equal. The bulk of the badly addressed letters are from foreign lands. In sorting over these letters Mr. Hatcher kept an ac count of the different ways the word Chicago is spelled. Yesterday the rec ord showed 197 different ways. Some ripe scholar in Finland sent a letter to his brother.here last week mid s]>elled the name Zlzzazo, Still another for eigner, possibly with some sinister mo tive, spelled the werd Jagjago. Hipa- ho, Jajijo, Kbecchacho, Hizago and Cbacigo are also prime favorites nnd all are down on Mr. Hatcher’s list. like himself, his tours are generally productive of speaking results. Henry Villard's efforts among democrats of German extraction are usually very effective and, as lie is a warm personal friend of Mr. Cleveland, be is counted upon to do good work in the present campaign. The democratic managers will greatly miss this year the presence and aid of the late William L. Scott of Erie, Pa. Appeals to him for financial aid in a campaign were seldom made iu in vain, and as a collector of funds be had a good-natured, stand-and-deliver way that was most effective. I have it from a source that is entirely reliable that in 1888 Mr. Scott contributed $250- 000 toward the re-election of ex-Presi- dent Cleveland.
