NywZK cal campaign are 1.-THE cleo
~ toral college" and 1.-THE pop
- ular vote" Just how much
they mean to the average citizen and
voter It would be hard TO determine,
but 1t Is reasonably certain that there
are a great many who have not a clear
understanding of just what the cleo
toral college is, and do not appreciate
the relation Of the popular vote to the
electoral college and the successful and
the defeated candidates. Certain 1t is
that II the plans and purposes OF the
organizers Of our government had been
realized, and freedom and independence
from party domination had been pre-
served to the electoral college In the
discharge Of its duty Of electing the
president and vice president, the voter
to-day would have had clearer under
standing Of the functions OF this body.
The early patriots Of this country,
whose province 1t was to frame the
laws governing the selection OF the
men who should serve the nation as
president and vice president, never
dreamed that the electoral college, the
machine which they devised for the
work of filling the highest offices in the
gift of the nation, would become a
mere figurehead, a mere cog In the
machinery, instead Of being the ma
chine ITSELF The fact Is that govern
ment by means of popular franchise
was an experiment at that stage OF
the history Of the country, and 1t was
not deemed safe or wise to commit
the selection of the chief executive OF
the nation and his assistant into the
hands Of the people.
For this reason the electoral college
WAS provided and 1t was expected that
the wisest, and most trustworthy lead
ers of the various states would be Sc
lected as members of the electoral COL
lege, and that unhampered by pledge
or other prearranged scheme. they
would assemble and cast their ballots
for the men who, in their mature judg-
ment, they deemed best qualified and
able to fill the high and responsible
offices.
But the country has long since lost
sight of the fact that the electoral col
lege is a factor in the national presi-
Dental election. It is safe to say that
a majority of the voters who cast their
ballots for president and vice president,
do not realize that they are not, strict
~ speaking, voting for such candidates
at all, but for the long string Of names
which are indicated as electors. There
is no law, except the unwritten law OF
custom, to prevent the electors chosen
from selecting a candidate other than
the one named on the ticket. Such vio-
lation of party pledge has never been
known and undoubtedly never will be-.
It is a fact, however, that the voter
never has the privilege of voting d.
rectly for president or vice president.
He votes only for electors who are
pledged to support the candidates
which the party has named at its con-
vention prior to the election. The
term, popular VOTE" therefore, in
some measure is misnomer. II there
is no vote cast directly for president
or vice president, there can be no pop

ular votes for either of these candi-
dates, and yet great deal Is SAID
about the popular vote, and the singu-
lar condition has arisen OF the defeat
ed candidates being credited with the
majority OF the popular vote, while
they have failed to secure the majority
of the votes Of the electoral college.
Such conditions prevailed In the jack
son-Adams campaign of 1924, jackson
being defeated although he had over
sc, 1000 more votes than were accredited
to Adams. The Tilden-Hayes contest
Of 1876 presented the same singular
features, as did also the Cleveland
Harrison campaign Of 1885,,
To all intents and purposes, however,
the voter casts his ballot directly for
president and vice president, and he
never thinks Of 1t or views 1t In any
other way. His vote goes to swell the
popular vote, and when one candidate
has a majority of the votes Of the
country and still goes down In defeat,
n is a circumstance which b not clear
Nv understood by many. Here Is where
the electoral college gets in its per
functory work.
' And now what II the electoral col
lege? This terminology Is used to des-
ignate the presidential electors which
have been selected in the various state'
to elect the president and vice president
Each state Is entitled to q number o
electors equal to Its representation II

law. the electors Of each state Al

mony in coloring is feature OF modern
millinery, and many of the hats OF the
moment are veritable studies in color.
For instance, one model in brown shows
many tones. from the deepest Vandyke
to the brightest copper, some Of which
develop into bronze and green until they
become impossible to describe. Paradis
plumes, too, are shaded in the same
manner, and are tremendously worn,

when SO many deer and SO many signs
Of them are left
But the sport hunting sportsman
reed not confine his efforts to exter-
mination of deer. The black bear and
the moose of these forests will AFFORD
him many an hours entertainment.
Two years ago this fall when in the
Muskoka district seven majestic moose
stalked through the little village Of
Rosseau, ON Lake Rosseau. much to
the chagrin of the sportsmen Of the
place, for the animals at that time
we're under the protection Of the On
tario laws.
Moore's home is at Foote's Bay, on
Lake Joseph, but from now until the
hunting season is over l would never
look for him at that place. Dense and
extensive as are the forests, feel
sure that could find my woods friend
within q few hours, for know the
deer runways that he knows; / know
the camps he loves; / know the trails
he follows, and It is on. these that
he will be found until the law again
says: mo more deer for this year."
