Freedom we now know Tor thing In.

Presidents, Names.

It is singular coincidence that there
is only one exception to the rule that
candidates for president whose names
end in N are elected. Tilden is the only
exception. There have been surprising
number Of presidents with the N on the
termination Of their names Washing
ton, Jefferson, Madison, jackson, Van
Buren,, Harrison, Buchanan, Lincoln and
Harrison. The Republicans had double
chance, because both of their candidates
names end with N, while the Democratic
candidate for vice president, Thurman,
could not overcome such heavy odds.
The presidents elected without an N at
the Termination of their names were not
pitted against the unconquerable N. The
president-elect, according to superstitious
traditions, was lucky to have only one
given name. This recalls the fact that
fifteen OF our presidents, and Harrison
will make the sixteenth, have had only
one given namc.-Cincinnati Enquirer.
