Special Prizes Offered to New Campaign Candidates
The notice announces Special Prizes for second period workers as extra incentives to boost effort before the finish. Votes are issued on subscriptions as before, with those turning in the largest cash amounts earning the Special Prizes in addition to regular votes.
Special Prize Competition counts votes toward original prizes
Votes secured in the special prize round also apply toward the original prizes in the press prize competition. This clarifies how success across stages impacts final awards and total standings.
Contestant Effort and Perseverance Preview Prize Outcome
If a contestant has built well by steady and conscientious work and is prepared to continue energetically to the end, they may hope for success in great reward. Those who have neglected effort still have time to attain vote results that win the prize.
Special Prizes Boost in Prize Race for Original Awards
The notice explains that subscriptions turned in during the special prize period credit directly toward the original 2000 prize list. Winners of special prizes may still compete for automobiles or other original prizes. The three new specials do not affect the original award process. All candidates start on equal terms for the special prizes, with added incentive for leaders.
