LETTERS FROM READERS

| have read III several papers
lately that Ex-Secretary of State
Bacon was President ofthe United
States for a shot time Oh the
fourth Of March. The explana-
ton given is that both President
Roosevelt and Vice President
Fairbanks terms of Office expired
at II m. on that day, and that Mr..
Taft did not take the oath of
office until nearly one o'clock .. m.
This they claim would make Mr..
Bacon President for those few
minutes
That sounds very nice and looks
quite reasonable. But let us an
alyze the matter: Mr.. TAFT was
elected to the office of President
of the United States for term OF
four years, to begin at IL o'clock

the oath of Office before becoming
President would not the same
rule apply to Mr.. Bacon3 And

In the main the above is cor.
rect. Mr.. Bacon was not Presi.

had been an interregnum Mr.
Sherman, the Vice President,
would have been President as be

method is fedinto receptacles auto

added small wheel which is run

power for revolving the receptacle
