In we'll writer article in Sundays
Charlotte Observer, the writer shows
Rev. J. B. Boone to have been the
first organizer of the graded school
system in North Carolina. We have
seen this stated before, but it's impor-
lance iustifies more than a passing
mention. The value Of the idea is
attested by the number of towns and
cities in our State which have follow
ed Mr. Boone's examplein Charlotte.
If man had never done anything
more than originate the graded
school idea in our State, his life
might we'll be rcckoned a success. 1t
is natural that certain changes and
notifications should appear i'll the
work and experience of teachers, but
the conception which Mr.. Boone had
OF the work was basic, it has not yet
changed, and is not likely to be in
the future. Twentv-four graded
schools are to be established in the
State this year.-CharlOtte Observer.

POLITICS.
Candidate is Hon. L. M. Wade, of Brax-
ton County, Prominent Among the

Hon. l.. NJ. Wade, of Sutton, promi-
nent attorney and Republican politician
of Braxton county, spent a few days
here this week attending the fair and
looking after politics.
Mr.. Wade is candidate for the Re-
publican nomination next year for sec
rotary of state. He talked very freely
of his candidacy and the other candidates
for various places. He informed the Tel
erram man that he had been all through
the southern part of the state in the
interests of his candidacy and met with
much encouragement, although he did
not know what the next several months
might develop
This is his most northern visit in the
state on that mission, but he expressed
the intention of making number OF
visits in this part TO the state IN the
near future.
The genial candidate made some happy
references to Dawson, Teter and Dorr
who are nj candidates for the nomina-
ton for governor. He is intimately ac'
ouainted with them all, and all are
warm friends of his.
Mr.. Wade was the only candidate men
toned for tho secretary of stateshiP, un
til it was announced that Charley Swish
err had decided not to run for the gov
ernorship and would likely be candidate
\ for secretary of state. Mr.. Wade, ate

The Atlanta constitution. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1885-19??, 1903-08-31
CHAPTER XTIII.

Under the old system of conducting
presidential elections, that candidate who
received the highest number of votes be-
came president, the next vice president.
Mr. Jefferson in 1896 had not been
candidate for the second place; nobody
had voted for him to be vice president;
vet he took the vice presidency, because
that was the law lie and John Adams
had each striven for the presidency
while other candidates contested the sec
ond place. Vet neither of the candidates
whom the people had voted for as vice
president was allowed to seSve.
Such was the law, and it should be re-
membered in gauging the moral guilt of
Aaron Burr
Thomas Jefferson and Aaron Burr in the
campaign Of 1900 received 70 votes each;
Holm Adams. on the opposition ticket,
had IS.
The election was thrown into the house,
and the law plainly directed that a pres-
dent should be chosen by the house from
the candidates who had received the
highest number of votes Apparently the
makers of the constitution intended 10
vest the house with some discretion. The
area of this discretion was limited, but
II was there. Henry Clay and John
Quincy Adams acted upon this idea when
they afterward combined to defeat the
