paid $200 a speech for his advocacy of
the election of Horace Greeley. Tho
charfre made something of a scandnl
at the time, and althouKh Schurz de
nied tho payment of this speclllo sum,
he was never nble wholly to clear him
self of that taint which was Bupposcd
to nttach to receiving any pay what
ever. Ho had a bitter controversy with
Roscoo ConklliiR in tho senate about it,
during which Conkling. In his super
cilious way, expressed his contempt of
the practice of which he thought
Schurz had been guilty. Nowadays
campaign speaking has become a mat
tor of rrgular employment, although,
of course, payment Is by no means uni
versal, and tho most conspicuous ora
torsespecially thoi who hold a high
place In tho party render volunteer
service, and will accept nothing be
yond their traveling and hotel expen
ses. Tho men In charge of a President
ial campaign prefer to pay on the spot
for what they get. This is far better
than to leave obligations outstanding to
bo satlslled In tho distribution of ofllcei
after tho election.
Tho ordinary campaign speaker ro
ceh eft $50 a speech and IiIr expenses. It
Is said that In tho campaign of 1896
ono very effective and brilliant gold
Democrntlo orator was paid $300 a
speech by tho Republican National
committee. This represents tho high
water mark In payments of this kind.
In soma cases those who do not re
celvo a stipulated price expert 'honor
ariums,' which really amount to the
