The special invitation extended can didates in each district to become a guest of the Banner on Monday even ing to view the Prince of Pilsen has proven a very Interesting feature of the campaign. The offer of securing two tickets is good until Monday noon and the same will be awarded to a candidate in each district turning in the greatest amount on subscriptions. A still bigger feature is to be intro duced to the candidates and same will be announced in Tuesday morning’s Banner and will no doubt prove of great interest to all candidates in both districts. “Straws show which way the wind blows” and the real interest in the Athens Banner Great Christmas Gift Subscription Campaign was best man ifested yesterday when thousands of votes came from all over the territory in both districts. Almost all of the nominees for the big Hudson-Six, the Ford Touring Car or some of the oth er valuable Christmas Gifts have been heard from and there are many who will take part in the campaign. The wonderful amount of voting that has been done by the public iu general is positive evidence that the voting has just beguA, and the future voting is going to be very heavy. There is no one who will feei that the Hudson-Six and the othe: Christmas awards have been won until the end of the cam paign which is only a short time off. Listen Candidates, and listen well; the offer of the extra vote of 200,000 beside the regular schedule for each club of collected subscriptions to the amount of $20,00 is your opportunity of claiming first honors in this cam paign and an opportunity for you to make a most excellent showing In piling up a substantial vote that will stand the strain of competition in the •end.

After the lamp came the candie, whose modest ray we are inclined to regard with a considerable amount of kindliness and esteem. But for the candle the dark ages of the world would have been dark In a still more literal sense than they already were, and to this humble # servant civilized mankind was indebted for the very best illuminant it possessed, certainly until the latter end ol the eighteenth century, and probably right up to the time of the invention of gas. The following communication from Col. Howell 'ey. Erwin, chairman of the executive committee, explains itself— in reference to a misapprehension concerning the managers of tne pri mary election of Tuesday, the 23rd: Chairman's Letter Editor of the Banner, City. Dear Sir: I have been informed by some of the parties that I appointed as man agers and clerks for the primary to be held on November 23rd that some confusion has arisen on account of the publication of the managers for the general city election to be held in December. Some of the parties appointed have gotten the impression'that there is but one election to be held and that there is some conflict between the city council and the chairman of the democratic executive committee in the appointment of the managers and clerks. I shall be very glad if you will publish this statement so that all mis apprehension on the subject, may be cleared up ^ ' I have not notified the managers and clerks that I have appointed other than by publication In the paper, and I will thank you, in connection with this card, to republish the appoint ments of clerks and managers which I have heretofore made. I trust that any of my appointees who cannot serve will let me know at once so that there will be no trou ble in supplying their places. Yours very truly, HOWELL C. ERWIN, Chairman.
