PRESIDENTIAL CONTESTS. Five Presi-
dental elections in which the vote OF
some one State might have changed the
result occurred out Of the p from 1889 to
49, In 1896, when the State Legisla-
lures chose the electors, Adams had only
a majority Of two over Jefferson, the vote
being : to 90. In 1872 President Madi-
son was chosen over De Witt Clinton by
Il, to 50. In this contest the vote of
either Pennsylvania (2j) OF Virginia (23)
would have made DE Witt Clinton Presi-
dent. In 1924 the full electoral vote of
New \ ork (34) would have given Andrew
Jacks son Il majority of all the votes cast
AS it was he received only one vote from
this State, and the election dtvolved upon
the House OF Representatives.
The contest i'll 1914 was exceedingly
close Polk received 10 votes; CLAY
100 The loss OF New York GA votes
was fatal to Henry Clay Polk $ plurality
in this State was only 5lO6-so that a
cnanGe Of 2'l54 votes would have secured
the election OF Henry Clay, with all its
cyenttul consequences. At the sixteenth
Presidential election (lS4S) the vote OF
New York \34) or Pennsy (24)
would have given Cass a malority over
Taylor Buchanan won in 1896 by 81
votes Without the aid Of Penn sylvania
he would have had only l4S votes the
exact number necessary TO choice. Had
Pennsylvania gone Republican in October.
his defeat was inevitable. Lincoln receiy-
ell in 1860, $50 votes, against 1913 tor his
opponents. Notwithstanding his great
plurality, he needed the vote Of New
York to give him a majority OF all the
votes east llencetorth small as well as
