Will You Spend ONE DOLLAR
lo Eiect Wilson President?
How deep is your conviction that this government ought to be in new hands, in
clean hands ?
How much are you in favor of a clean slate from Wilson and Marshall clear down
the line to the very smallest offices in your locality?
The Democratic National Committee has every reason to believe that every pro
gressive voter is willing to spend a dollar to elect Wilson and Marshall and their ticket.
And that thousands are anxious to contribute to the Wilson Campaign Fund in
amounts of $2, 5, .1) and $20.
To such we make our appeal. To such we must look for victory.
Time An Important Factor
Thin is another case when- time is money.
The enemy have Iheir fund!" s.ipplied inst.intly by
the Interests.
We have only I lew days .ind contribution! to be effec
tive must be received hi once.
Tin ri-is no question of the money of the l'eople being
able to defeat the money of the Trusts.
Because it is greater even in volume and will be used tn
strnightlorw.ird telling ways.
But lo be effective it mult be received and used within
the next ft w days.
Quick action is absolutely necessary. Let us hare your
contribution or the list you make up from your friends and
co-workers today if possible, tomorrow sure.
How Your Money Will Be Spent
Wood row Wilson, our 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 turn done without ostentation, in
the most expeditious, dignified manner.
The great mass of voters do not know what it really
great man Wilson is. They do not know all he has done.
They do not understand all the leaturcs of his platform,
We must tell them.
To educate this great nation of voters, especially the
clear thinking Independent Democrats, Kcpublicans and
Progressives who choose their leader on his merits, means
the expenditure ol a vast amount of money.
Wc 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 Count
In this campaign the Issues lie between the forces of
Representative Government and Popular Government.
In Representative Government onlv a part ol the people
have influence those with no political faith, who spend
fortunes in any direction where their own ends are fur
thered lor money.
In Popular Government all the people have influence,
because their executives and legislators do not dare to
thwart the expressed will ol the people.
Representative Government, as ever, this year is being
aupported by the money ol the Interests. It is being spent
lavishly to give the voters a wrong Impression of Wilson
PopularGovernment, this year, to win, must depend on the
truth being told about Wilson. We must publish his record
and platform broadcast ao that no one can controvert it. r
Your II, your $2, your 15, your 10 or WO will count and
ount to srin il SDent in this work.
Head a List For the Fund
II you know seve ral Wilson voters, or work in a place
where there are Wilson volets, take up a subscription Irom
ail ol them.
Place your name and the amount ol vour subscription at
the top ol the list and gel the others lo join you.
