Two Oregon Judges have resigned,
and their reason for SC doingi is the same
given by Judge Macarthur a few months
ago, namely the smallness of the pay.
Oregon pays the Judges of the Supreme
Court but 50, 600 q year. and the conse-
quence OF this niggardliness is that iu-
dicial positions have generally to be
filled with young, inexperienced attor-
neys. One of the appointees to fill the
recent vacancies has been a member of
the bar but three months CHICAGO

Minority Presidents.
An ingenious compilation has

An ingenious compilation has recent
~ been made, from which it appears
that Presidential elections are not I'M
frequently decided by two votes out of
each 100. For the last sixty years it
appears that not less than seven Presi-
dents have been elected by a minority
of the voters, represen ted however, by
majority of the electors. These
Presidents were: Adams in 1924, Polk
in 1914, Taylor in 184S, Buchanan in
1856, Lincoln in 1860, Hays in 1876,
and Garfield in 1880 In 1924 Adams
had only 2O.92 per cent. of the votes
and as no candidate was chosen the
President was elected by the House.
In 1874 Polk had 49.55. per cent of the
votes, Clay 48. IA and Birney 2.21. A
difference of 2 per cent. determined the
issue. In 1848 Taylor had 47.36 per
cent, Cass 40. 5, and Van Buren, lola
per cent Eight years later Buchanan
became President, having received 45 81
per cent of the votes, while Fremont
had 5000, and Fillmore 21.57. Lincoln
in 1860 had SO. 81 per cent. of the votes.
Douglas 29.4. Breckenridge 1903,
Bell 1851. Hayes had only 1875 per
cent. and Tilden 1904. Garfield had
1926, Hancock 1926, and Weaver 3. 80.
The highest per centage Of votes ever
received by any successful Presidential
candidate was in 1928 when jackson
had 55.97 per cent. Which ever OF the
present existing leading Presidential
candidates shall succeed in securing 2
per cent. in a hundred more than his
opponent will therefore be elected.
The,signifcance of each individual vote
can well be appreciated by survey Of
these figures.

New York is being crowded with mil
lionairism. Five of the men SO enor-
mously enriched by Nevada mining are
here now, or have been recently. Fam;
lilies whose fortunes are permanently
enlarged come to the metropolis to live
luxuriously. Square miles of residences,
each representing, on the average, a
yearly expenditure of $25. ZOO for main
tenance, aside from whatever special
and personal extravagances the inmates
may indulge in, make an aggregate Of
capital dazzling to contemplate. Year
by year the amount of money withdrawn
from active use in busiess grows i'm
mensely, and the number of rich idiers
increases proportionately. Among all
the young sons of the Astors and Van
derbilt's there is not one who has an &C
tive pursuit save that Of pleasure, and ]
mention these mares because they are
familiar, and r0t for exceptionally.
Go into the evening resorts Of time-kil-
lers and you will at every turn meet
fellows who do absolutely nothing USE
full from the beginning Of year to its
end. They are the heirs of dead and
gone workers. They are destitute OF
manly pride, but full of the foolish van
tiles of dandyism. Vicious, also:
Naturally. Their extravagances in
that direction are just now remarkable.
1t has suddenly become the fashion
among them to keep bachelor apart
ments, no matter how adequate to all
rational requirements their family
homes may be. Within two years a
dozen or more magnificent buildings
have been erected ON the French fat
plan, except that no women or kitchens
are included. Suits of two or foul
rooms are rented at 81 900 to IS, QUO pei
annum, usually to be lavishly furnished
by the tenant, who is very often'a rich
family's scion on his rapid way to the
devil. A restaurant. from which the
most elaborate meals may be ordered
for delivery in his own dining-room,
enables him to entertain his friends in
as carousing a manner as he chooses;
and these guests need not be masculine,
Notwithstanding the monastery rules OF
the house.
