Some of the readers of this paper seem to have been unable to see the difference in political advertising and personal opinion as shown in the poltical advertising this paper has had during the past few weeks. Every such announcement has been plainly marked advertisement the law demands and has been paid for at regular rates. From the great amount of newspaper space during this campaign by the differ ent political parties, the prediction is made that, before many years political campaigns will be conducted" almost exclusively through advertising the merits of candidate and political questions of the day and less by public, speakers. Political managers recognize the appeal such advertising has, a fact many a business man seems to have neglected for the exploitation of his own commercial advantage. Old Folks Day at Whiteland.
