He's going to be a monopolist, too, and his claiming to be champion of the people is all a bluff." Harley explained with care that Mr. Heathcote was important. To run a great presidential campaign required much money special trains must be paid for, halls had to be hired for speakers, there was a vast amount of printing to be done, and many other expenses that must be met.
