The Hardin County Ledger urges local residents to enter a short campaign offering six thousand dollars in prizes for top vote getters. It stresses self nomination or friend nomination, early subscriptions, and a rapid vote tally by a committee of prominent businesspeople.
A bold circular touts a $6,000 gift distribution with no investment or risk. It urges recipients to submit nomination blanks to the Cam- Department and notes many prizes exceed the number of active candidates.
The text notes that prize value affects candidate support as allies back hopefuls who show effort to gain friends. It warns that unappreciative behavior prompts peers to withdraw and shift backing to others seeking help.
