tention to the difference be-
tween French and American methods
Of choosing chief magistrate. NJ.
Fallieres was elected by the members
Of the senate and chamber of deputies
in joint session. The two bodies met
at Versailles and balloted secretly for
successor TO President Emile Loubet
Each member in turn deposited his bal
lot in an urn provided for the purpose.
There are 591 deputies and 800 senators
In France making S91 members of the
two houses. constituting together the
national assembly. A candidate for
president must receive a majority OF
the votes cast in order to be elected.
Fallieres received 449 votes out of S4S.
Although much popular interest per
tains to the election of a. president in
France, no such political Importance
attaches TO the event as in the United
States. In this country the question Of
which party shall be in power for the
ensuing four years hinges on the vote
Of a presidential election. In France
it Is possible for several ministers rep
resenting different parties to be in Of
fee in the course Of a single presiden-
tial term. The powers of the national
executive are in reality very limited.
His chief duties are TO entertain foreign
potentates and do the honors at certain
state or popular functions Though he
has considerable power in theory he
does not as a matter Of custom and
practice exercise il. He is not elected
by popular vote or even by an elect
oral college representing popular
vote. Though he is supposed to have n
veto on bills passed by the lawmaking
body, as a matter of fact no president
since MacMahon has exercised such q
right. The French president may mere
ly return an obnoxious measure with
request for further deliberatlon. The
president Of the United States selects
his cabinet without any dictation from
congress. In France the president
merely acts as the instrument of the
chamber of deputies in forming minis
tries, which represent the political COM
pleXion of that body, just as the king
of England does in making up a cabi-
net when the balance Of power shifts
from one party to another.
