ONE WEEK FROM TO NIGHT PONY CONTEST ENDS
No One Is Certain of Victory and the Lowest Candidate To day May Be a Lead
er To-morrow—Only Seven More Days to Claim Prizes—Will You Be
Among the Winners?—Success Is Within Your Grasp If You Will
Only Realize the Fact and Prove Your Right to the Prizes By Your
Efforts Now—“Dark Horses” Will Probably Come Fast Dur
ing Last Days and Crowd Out the Too Certain Ones.
We have new entered the thick of the fight, the battle is on and when the smoke clears away on July
31, WHO WTI.I, STAND FORTH AS VICTORS? Who knows? Victory Is as liable to perch on the banner of one
candidate ns another and probably the candidate who is now hovering near the cellar championship, as the base-
hallists say. may be the one who will come so fast during the last few days that there will be no stopping him—,
he will sweep all before him and march triumphantly to his goal. This statement should be considered well by
all candidates and especially those who may feel that there is no need for them to exert themselves during this
time, as they are certain of victory. No one is certain of victory, and no one will be until all is over. You may
be in the lead now and be reasonably sure In your own mind that, no one can defeat you for the prize you want,
but you do not know what efforts will lie put forth before the close and while you rest apparently secure In the
prospect of winning, your very nearest competitor will probably is* working so energetically that the gap between
you now will bo closed up to allow victory snatched from your grasp when a little real effort during these seven
days will win for you and any other candidate who falls to do Ids very liest is liable to be without the charmed
circle of winners on July .11, no matter how far in front he may tic at present.
Tresent standings are not indicative of final results by a long way. Heal effort NOW is going to swing ti-
pendulum of victory or defeat and if you really desire one of those pony outfits or a pretty watch, now is your
opportunity to win your selection.
Have you ever witnessed a horserace, where the favorite started out In front, passed the quarter and
half poles away in front and then fell down during the last quarter, while the "rank outsider,” now considered
as a last place possibility, romped in ahead of the favorite? This illustrates perfectly what is just as liable
as not to happen in the contest during these last few days. We don’t say that it will happen, but such things have
happened so often—the candidate is not given a chance to win by the “wise” ones—finally defeating all his
rivals—that a similar occurrence in The American <Icorgian campaign would not lie surprising. Hence, we want
to impress upon every candidate the necessity of doing his liest I adore the finish overtakes you.
FIVE MORE DAYS OF THE RED LETTER BALLOTS.
Juf* five more days and the Red letter Ballot, which is the last special vote offer of the contest, will
draw to a close. The work living done by the great majority of candidates proves that they appreciate their op
portunities and are going to die hard. Those who have as yet done but little on this offer should lose no time
in getting started. There Is still time to secure its advantages and every vote secured is a step nearer success.
uTesday night at 10 o'clock this offer will close and thos<; who have failed to take advantage of this offer and
these will be but few, will have missed a chance that may mean final defeat. Votes are the only things that will
win for you .and without these necessary things you cannot hope to win. Hence every one is worth securing
and essential ito success.
