1t shows the average annual production
Cf wheat by qulnqucnniai periods, and the
very decided increase III the wheat pro

Argentina, and Russia during tie last fiji
teen Years. A similar growth would also
be shown. for Uruguay were the statistics
available for the entire period. India alone
uf the SIN countries has suffered Il decline.
The circular also presents able CON

wheat and whea, flour expressed in bushels
of grain by quinquennial periods, Of the
same countries, Which indicates in Il striking
manner the j. rarVclon> growth which has
occurred since / $50 in tie vol me of

wheat exporting countries.
The average yearly export of wheat

MAKING OF A PRESIDENT
ne ihods Employed Under the Amer
lean Electoral System.
Machinery Necessary to Complete
the Work Begun at the
Ballot Box.

Presidential electors are appointed
not elected, although Their names are On
the ballots when deposited by the SOW
ereigns. The act authorizing the op-
Grafton of the electoral system, and Ge-
timing the powers OF these chosen, treats
Lnem as appointees, and SO, likewise, does
the law under which they become the
agents of the people to express by ballot
the popular will.
nl.eIi II is remembered that the people
do not vote directly for the Presidential
candidates, but, in the general belief, do
decide between two or more sets of cleo
tors, the act OF appointments seems,
at first blush, To be of somewhat vague
and uncertain authority.
Ballots in considerable numbers We're
once thrown out in the State of New
York for no other reason than that the last
letter OF the longest name among those of
the electors was cut off when the ballots
We're separated by the printer. 1t is be-
lieved by many to this day that the
choice OF u President that year was de
cideI by the rejection of those votes,
and that had they been counted, as they
were intended to be, in the interest of
Mr.. Blaine, he would have become the
Chief Magistrate, and his days would
have been Increased.
The expression Of the ballots. however,
is the will of the people, the MA jority of
whom decide who shall be 'appointed'
TO do the real voting. And those ap-
pointed in each State "shall meet and
give their votes" on the second Monday
i'll January next following the election in
November. They shall meet at such
place in each State as the legislature OF
such State shall direct.
Imperative is the command 10 assemble
on that particular date in January, with
no proviso of 'high waters alone prevent
ing" Failure to obey this mandate in
any one State might change the election
result, and in one instance, we'll remem-
bered. when there was but one ma jority
in the electoral vote for the winner, it
would certainly have done so.
That was in 1876, just twenty years
ago With the law strictly obeyed, il
required the creation OF the extraordinary
electoral commission, composed of five
Senators, five Representatives. and five
| members of the Supreme Court, to settle
| the contest. That year also witnessed
Il remarkable campaign In the State Of
| Illinois, in which, as has been frequently
| intimated Gen. John A. Logan relin-
! quished his fight for the United States
i Senate, and aided in throwing the Re
publican vote to David Davis, then a
member of the Supreme Court The
| legislature was close, and one independent
member. who preferred Davis, was able
to elect him.
| This was done to save the Presidency to
| the Republicans, it was alleged, by keep
ing Judge Davis off the high Joint COM
| mission. Under the method of choosing,
| he would certainly have been appointed
| AS Senator he was out of the way, and a
Republican judge was named in his stead
Had he been member Of the Commission
he would have voted for Tilden, but the

"Thc greatest foe with which the m
munity and the country has to COntend,'
said lie, ''is the liquor traffic. 1t is equally
tue greatest enemy of the home, the church
and the nation. No matter how high aE
authority ii may DE il cannot make
Legitimate or respectable that which is
neither. There are more crimes and fuuicr
crimes traceable to the saloon than To any
otber source.
"People who advocate high license merely
desire To regulate crime for money Ihl
liquor crime is ON par with murder. The
legalized fee placed by the government o.
iniquity and crime makes IL a participant
In it. Any man who enters the liquor
business loses his self-respect.
''Licensing the traffic has been tried for
400 years, but in all that time the sin has
increased instead of diminished. God never
intended that a protecting shield should be
thrown over iniquity. One who is guilty
OF knowingly signing petition for the
licensing of i saloon in his block is as
guilty of sin in the eyes OF God as the
man who Sells the liquor"
Mrs CLEARWATER spoke at considerable
length on the District liquor license laws
She asserted that Washington is n luCa

to be regulated y-the wishes of the people
fesiding in the respective squares of the

said.
After this address soprano solo was

Hadyn's The Heavens Are Telling (which
was sung by the members OF the choir
of st. Aloysius' Church, assisted by repre-
sentatives of the principal church choirs
of the city with great precision and effect.
The second selection, an overture by the
Columbia Theater Orchestra Theater, was
very good; also Mr. Edward Walsh recited
The WbaIer" in strong and natural
manner. The Madrids Mandolin Club was
encored repeatedly. One of the best num-
bers was the magnificent playing of the
aria from Gounod's Samson and Deli

sustained the melody well but kept up a
