Nominating n President.

Until the constitutional amendment
of 1904 the president and the vice pres
ident were voted for on the same bal
lot, the man with the second highest
number of votes becoming vice presi-
dent. The presidential electors have
not always been chosen by popular
vote.
Before 1900 it was the general GUS
tom for the state legislatures TO choose
the electors, and it was not until 1923
that presidential electors were chosen
in nearly all the states by popular vote.
As late as 1876 the Colorado legislature
chose the three presidential electors to
represent that state. There is nothing
in the constitution TO prevent any state
legislature naming It's own electors
without appeal to the people provided
such q method of election is prescribed
by the state laws.
From 1900 TO 1924 presidential candi-
dates webe chosen by the members Of
congress in caucus. In 1924 the elect
oral college failed to make a choice
from the candidates so submitted, and
the matter went to the house of repre-
sentatives. Four years later Tcnnes-
sees legislature nominated Andrew
Jackson without any reference to the
congressional caucus. His opponent,
John Quincy Adams, was nominated i'll
the old way, but that was the end of
presidential nominations by congress
sional caucus.-New York Sun.

guard the rear entrance, while Patsy
climbed on the front shutters. He
