paign Department for a free working outfit.
Thus equipped you have but to see your friends
and acquaintances and have them pay up their
subscription through you. That’s all there is to
it! However, let us say you will never gut any
where unless you make the start—the earlier
the beter. Once started, let no one discourage
you. Anything worth having is worth striving
for. Seven short weeks and you may be riding

cast before the expiration date appearing
thereon.
The other and much faster way to accumulate
votes in thia campaign is by stcuring new and
renewal subscriptions to thia news paper (the
right is reserved to include job printing and ad
vertising if so desired). On each order secured
a certain number of votes are issued, the num
ber varying according to the amount paid and
during which “period” same ar ereceived by the
Campaign Departmen. See schedule of votes
opposite.
l
The advantages of an early start are mani
fest. The campaign is of such short duration
that immediate action is necessary for success.
Orden taken during the early part of the cam
paign carry the MAXIMUM number of vot’s.
Then, too, the fint in the field will undoubtedly
get the cream of the votes and subscriptions,
while thoae who put off entering until a later
date will have to take what is left.
Don’t loae valuable time waiting to sea what
the “other fellow is going to do,” but pitch right
in and show the “other fellow” how to do it!

The first thing to do is to clip the Entry Ccu-
pon appearing below, fill in your name and ad
dress nnd mail or deliver it to the Campri’-o
Department of this newspaper at once. T’. ,s
coupon entitles you, or the person whom you
might wish to enter, with 5.000 FREE VOTES.
These votes are given as a starter—to sp J
you on your way to win. Only one such Entry
Coupon will be accepted for each entrant.
The next step is to call, on, or write, the Cr.m«

those who participate most actively. Ambition
and energy are the only requsites of success.
The plan adopted is the fairest and most im
partial conceivable. There will be no “special
vote offers’” inaugurated during the life of this
campaign, neither will there be any “special
prizes” given. The plan is straightforward and
simple, and fully outlined in this announcement
Let it be understood at the outset that
this is not a "beauty” nor “popularity” contest,
but a strictly legitimate competitive proposition
for enterprising men and women, and one into
which no element of chance enters. One feature
of this campaign is the fact that “Everybody
“Wins”. There will be no losers in this race!

FIRST PERIOD
The object of this big prize distribution is
two-fold. Primarily to increase tht already
large subscription list of this newspaper, to
collect arrearage and advance subscription pay
ments from present or old subscribers, and at
the same time to afford livewire, energetic
hustlers of this city and surrounding territory
an opportunity to profit, and in a BIG way,
through their spare time during the next few
weeks. So it is a plan that works both ways,
and to the ultimate good of all concerned.
In order to gain this end quickly and advan
tageously, the most valuable list of prizes ever
offertd by a weekly newspaper in this section
has been made ready for distribution among

CAMPAIGN PLAN IN BRIEF

r
10. In the event of a tie for any one of the
prizes, a prize identical inval ue will be given
each tying contestant.
11. Participants in this campaign are au
thorized and agreed that they will be respons
ible for all moneys collected and will remit
such amounts in full each day to the Campaign
Department.
12. No statements or promise made by any
representative or candidate varying from the
rules and statement appeari ng through the
columns of this newspaper will be recognized
by the publisher.
13. In case of tyopographical or other error
it is understood that neither the publisher nor
campaign manager shall be held responsible ex
cept to make the necessary correction upon dis
covery of same.
14. Candinates who remain ACTIVE to the
finish, but fail to win one of the regular prizes
offered, will be paid a 20 per cent commission
on all subscription money turned in to their ac
count. It is distinctly understood, however, that
in the event any candidate becomes IN
ACTIVE, failing to make a regular ruth report,
he or she will, at the discretion of the manage
ment, become disqualified and thereby forfeit
all right to a prize or commission.
15. To insure absolute fairness in the
awarding of prizes, the race will be brought to
a close under a sealed ballot box. During the
entire last "period” of the campaign, a bal’ot
box—locked and sealed—will repose in the
vaults of the Vernonia bank, where candidates
and their friends will deposit their final col
lections and reserve votes. In this way no one,
not even the campaign manager, can possibly
know the voting strength of the various candi
dates, which precludes any possibility of favor-
ism and insures fairness to the minutest degree.
16. This newspaper reserves the right to
amend the rules and conditions of this cam
paign. if necessary, for the protection of can
didates or this newspaper.
17. This newspaper guarantees fair and im
partial treatment to all participants, but should
any question arise, the decisions of the manaw-
ment will be absolute and final.
18. In becoming a candidate, participants
agree to abide by the above conditions.

ficient moment that might happen to arise, and
from which a committee shall be selected to
act as judges aad award the prizes. The per
