81 7 is the very essence Of presidential
election that some candidate must get
left. Some one must be disappointed.
And in the history Of the republic many
great men have sought and lost this COW
eted prize. Three great names stand out
prominently in the list-Clay, Webster
and Blaine-each the idol of his party,
each the victim Of political scheming.
Aaron Burr, just hundred years ago,
missed the presidency by the narrowest
margin. He was an adept in political
intrigue, with magnetic personality and
brilliant mind that Won him equal favor
in the eyes of the voters with Jefferson.
Each received seventy-thrce votes and
this threw the election into the House OF
Representatives. Thirty-iive ballots were
taken without result.
The Federalists were anxious to defeat
Jefferson and they gave their support to
Burr until the thirty-sixth ballot. Then,
Burr refused to give pledges required of
him, their support was withdrawn and
Jefferson was chosen. In accordance
with the law of those days Burr became
Vice-President. But he WAS a disap-
pointed man. Following his defeat for
the presidency came the fatal duel with
Hamilton, the Blennerhasset scandal, his
traitorous attempt to divide the country,
his temporary exile and social obscurily.

In 1S4S Cass was United States Sem
ator, but resigned when the Democrats
nominated him for the presidency. Ow-
ing to the opposition Of the Free Soilers,
he did not receive the electoral vote of
New York State, and the Wing candi-
date, Taylor, won the prize.
Horace Greeley's defeat in the presi-
DENTAL contest Of 1872. with its dircful
aftermath, was political tragedy. High
in the councils of the Republican party,
respected by the whole people, Greeley
put aside the political principles OF u
lifetime to become the candidate of Dem
ocracy. Overwhelming defeat broke his
generous heart and was quickly followed
by death.
Samuel J. Tilden's failure to be inau-
gurated as President of the United States
is the one weak link i'll the presidential
chain that connects the present with the
dawn of the republic.
The result of the contest in 1876 was
in doubt from the close of the polls on
election day until March ., 1917, when
the electoral commission appointed to set
tie the matter decided that Rutherford
b. Hayes had received 1S5 votes as
against 1S4 for Samuel j. Tildcn.
1t was a perilous period, and the nation
owes much to the man who rcfraincd
from speaking the word that might have
plunged the country into civil war.

Peasants of Oberammergau.
In the Womans Home Companion
Lillian Bell writes of her experiences at
Oberammergau and of the impressions
made upon her by the great Christ

words:
"-As to the play itself, wish 1 need

who have sought the presidency, but
sought in vain. For score of years his
name was always uppermost in the pub
lie mind whenever the Republican party
met in convention. In 1876 the nomina
ton was almost within his grasp. In
1880 he received first ballot vote Of
2S4, but he and General Grant, his
strongest rival, had both to step aside for
the compromise candidate, Garfield. In
1854 he was certain of victory, but failed
through the loss of New York State u
the narrow margin of 1.047 votes.
Among other well-known men who
tried to be President and failed were
Gen. Mcclellan, Gen. Hancock, Bcnja-
min Il. Butler, William j. Bryan and
Admiral Dewey.
