To Hustling Contestants and Friends—the Winners Had the
Contest Closed Last Night

Now Phooe 100 Oraooe, lex.
If the grand popular voting con-
test now open, had closed last night
when the count for today’s paper was
made, it would certainly have brought
bitter disappointment to the hearts
of many of the contestants who have
the golden opportunity to reach forth
and grasp a prize worth hundreds
of dollars.
In order to show just what would
have happened and how the difference
of a few hours’ endeavor or the votes
of a few friends may change the whole
aspect of a contest, a computation has
been made upon the assumption that
the contest had closed when the last
count was made. Bear in mind that
the contest has not closed, nor will
it close until 10 o’clock p. m., May 22.
and until that time every man. wom-
an and child has an equal opportunity.
The computation as to what would
have happened is interesting from
many viewpoints First it shows that
practically nothing has been done by
some of the candidates, and none of
them have a sufficient number of
votes to rest upon their laurels with
perfect confidence.
A little co-operation, a little effort,
a few hours spent in actual canvassing
for votes, will suffice to change the
whole aspect of the contest. It is pre-
posterous for a contestant to relax
his efforts at this time, for some one
will be laying a plan of action, and
the first thing you know your lead
will be overcome and your friends
marshalled into another camp and you
will be stranded. Keep your eyes
open
In the city the voting figures show
that those who are interested deeply
enough to pitch Into the matter of
securing votes, their efforts Firing
bountiful results. There should be a
considerable element of pride in de-
monstrating that no mistake was
made when your name was suggested
for an energetic ami popular candi-
date.
What one has done, others can eas-
ily do. In the teritory outside of the
city a few have reaped a splendid har-
vest of votes hut in many communities
practically nothing lias been done.
This is the time for action, for
thought, _and for endeavor of many
kinds.
The popular voting contest of the
Leader is not a “lucky” contest, nor
one in which any candidate can win
without votes. The most popular
contestant in Texas or Louisiana
would be defeated if no attention was
given to the matter of securing votes.
What the Figure* Show.
if the contest had been brought to
a close last night, the awards of the
grand prizes would have stood as fol-
lows:
Miss Vera Stark of District 2 would
have won the first capital prize, and
for her efforts would have become
the possessor of the Maxwell .auto-
mobile. At the time the last count
was made she led the list with 40,405
votes.
Next to her total of votes is Miss
Lola Ellis of District No. 2, with a
total of 34.555 votes. To Miss Ellis
would have been. awarded the $500
Christman piano.
Miss Zollie Bland, Miss Lola Rily
and Miss Mary Mayo would each
have been awarded a ladies’ gold
watch.
Miss Lillian Adams, Mrs. D. Dar-
row and Mr. Chas. E. Keppler each
would* have secured one of tbe hand-
some 31-piece dinner sets.
The contest has 21 days‘in which
to run and there ia not anything to
discourage any of the contestants.
All tbe contestants should bear in
mind that Mr. Cafes Ford, one of
our leading grocerymen has subscrib-
ed for the Daily Leader for several
years and will give every cash pur-
chaser of his goods a 100-vote cou-
pon in the Leader voting contest for
every dollar's worth of groceries
bought from his store starting April
29th, and continuing until his supply
runs out.
What tbe Contest Manager Will do.
In order to assist all the cipntestants
in every possible way, the contest
manager has decided to give every
contestant an extra ballot of 10,000
votes for each total of $30 worth of
subscriptions turned in by them or to
their credit between seven o'clock
Monday, April twenty-sixth, and sev-
en o’clock Saturday evening, May
eighth. .For it total of $15.00 and over
and less than $30.00 turned in during
this same time, an extra ballot of
3,500 votes will be given.
