rHoENix. ARIZONA. SEPT. 2l. 1901.

Mfr. Roosevelt is so generally spoken of as the twcnty-sixth president that
 it is a. timely cor THE rection to designate TwENTY-FIFTH him as the twenty PRESIDENT fifth. As the Chi
 cago Journal ex- plains, the ordinary lists as printed in the almanacs and other books of sta tistics put Mckinley down as the twen- ty-fifth president. and on glancing over them rapidly one naturally assumes that Roosevelt is the twenty-slxth. The following Is the list as usually printed: 1-George washington.
 2-John Adams.
 3-Thomas Jefferson.
 4-James Madison.
 5-James Monroe.
 6-John Quincy Adams.
 7--Andrew Jackson.
 S-Martin Van Buren,
 Civilian Henry Harrison. 1d-John Tyler
 11-James K Polk.
 12-zachary Taylor
 13-Miliard Fillmore.
 1+Franklin Pierce.
 15-James Buchanan.
 16-Abraham Lincoln.
 17-Andrew Johnson.
 1s-Ulysses s. Grant
 1S-Rutherford B. Hays. 20-James A. Garfield.
 21-Chester A. Arthur.
 22-Grover Cleveland.
 23-Benjamin Harrison. 24-Grover Cleveland.
 25-William M. Mckinley. 2e-Theodore Roosevelt The confusion arises from counting Grover Cleveland twice. He held two terms. but he was not two different men. If his terms had succeeded each other IS in the case of the other presidents holding two terms. he would have been counted as the twenty-second president, Benjamin Harrison as the twenty-thlrd, as he was, and Mckinley as the twenty-fourth. If both of Clevelands terms are to be counted and he is to be called the twenty-second and twenty-fourh pres ident then other double terms should be counted also, and Washington would be the first and second president. and so on- This mode of enumeration would make Roosevelt the thirty fourth president. By no reasonable l mode of counting can he be the twenty sixth.
 He is in fact the twenty-fifth person to fi!l the office. and consequently the | twenty-fifth president of the United | States.
