How Your Money Will Be Spent Woodrow Wilson, <>ur standard bearer, has never bad the time or disposition to talk about himself. He has never used spectacular methods to place himself in the spotlight. His greatest work has been done without ostentation, in the most expeditious, dignified manner. The great mass of voters do not know what a really great man Wilson is. They do not know all he has dune. They do not understand all the features of his platform. We must tell them. To educate this great nation of voters, especially the clear thinking Independent Democrats, Republicans and Progressives who choose iheii leader on bis merits, means the expenditure of a vast amount of money. We propose to use your dollars in just this way ? judiciously, and without a penny frittered away for an un necessary item. We know you have confidence we will do this thing?and successfully. Why the Dollar Counts In this campaign the issues lie between the forces of Representative Government and Popular Government. In Representative Government only a part o( the people have influence ? those with no political faith, who spend fortunes in any direction where their own ends arc for thcrcd for money. In Popular Government all the people have influence, because their executives and legislators do not d4re to thwart the expressed will of the people. Representative Government, as ever, this year is being supported by the money of the Interests. Iiis being spent lavishly to give the voters a wrong improoston of Wilson. Popular Government, this year, to win, most depend on the truth being told about Wilson. We must publish his record and platform broadcast so that no one can controvert it. Your $1, your 12, your &r>, your 110 or $'20 will count and ount to win if socnt in this work.
