1872 AS his second term was
drawing to a close there were
rrmors that he was not disinclin-
e to be a candidate for another
term. A check upon his aspira
ton, if in truth he cherished it,
was given by a resolution of the
House of Representatives, in De-
cember, 1875, which declared that
"the precedent established by
Washington and other presidents
CT .he United States in retiring
| from the presidential office after
their second term had become, by
universal concurrence, a part o.
our republican system Of govern
ment, and that any departure
from this time honOred custom
would be unwise, unpatriotic and
fraught with peril to our free in
situations. The resolution was
Democratic in it's origin, the
Democratic Party being then in
control Of the House, and it re
ceived the votes of all the mem
bers of that party who were
present Eighteen Republicans
only opposed the declaration.
The affirmative votes numbered
234. Not long afterward, in Jan
uary, 1876, the House voted, yeas
14S, nays 1O5, to submit to the
state legislatures an amendment .
to the Constitution in these
words:
No person who has held, or
may hereafter hold, the office o.
president, shall ever again be
eligible to said Office
These legislative declarations,
although they were not final, be-
cause they did not pass both
houses of Congress, show how
popular feeling was both before
and after the Civil War, and it
may not be out of place to men
ton that the Constitution of the
Confederate States provided for
l single term of six years.
The third-term question came &

land, after the lapse Of an inter
mediate term.
1t is said that Cleveland wa
{ originally called Stephen Grover
but, il SO, the first name was los
before he came into notice. Gran
had been brought into extraordi
nary prominence by the part h,
played in the great Civil War
and that may have operated as {
charm to break the spell.
1t has been said that no great
man ever has but one name be-
sides that Of his family, but this
rule does not apply to the great
Caesar, who was named Caius
Julius, nor to Robert E. Lee. nor
to Stonewall Jackson, and prob
ably not at all to great soldiers.
But returning to the rule as i.
applies to American politics, it
seems hopeless for President Taft
to struggle for another term be-
cause Of the fatality of his mid
die name.
There is another superstition to
the effect that no United States
senator could be elected to the
presidency during his senatorial
lncumbency, but this did not pre-
vent several of them from being
elected to the chief magistracy
when they were no longer in the
Senate.
The question Of a third term in
the presidential office becomes in
teresting in view of the desperate
attempts that are being made by
Colonel Roosevelt to attain it.
Washington refused to serve aft
n the expiration of his second
ERIN and no other two-term presi-
lent gave the slightest suggestion
# any willingness to do so until
he close of General Grants Sec
nd term. Il,
When General Jackson was
resident there had arisen a pub
C feeling against even two terms,

FACTS AND SUPERSTITIONS
As TO THE PRESIDENCY.

There are certain sorts Of sup.
erstitions that are regarded more
or less by even highly intelligent
pers Ons.
One of these is the notion that
the breaking of a mirror in FAM
lily home will be followed by the
death Of some member of the fam
lily within year. Another is
that it is most unlucky to walk
under ladder which leans
against abuilding,as it has more
or less uncanny suggestion Of
gallows. Certain it is that it is
often dangerous to walk under
such ladder if man is working
overhead on it, or it may bode
damage to ones clothing if a
painter be working above the
pedestrian.
There are many other such sup
crstitions, and the people Of every
trade and calling have one or
more peculiar to the incidents off
their lives. It might be interest
ing to mention a number of these,
but it will suffice to refer to
some that have been long sup
posed to have some influence upon
he political fortunes of our
American public men. They
lave been gathered by Edward
'tanwood, a journalist and politi- /
al writer of note, and are worth !,
It least momentary notice, as they ,
ppear in the Atlantic MONTH y
or October.
For instance, from the begin :
ings of the nation to the present I
lme, with the single exception of 4
General U. s. Grant, no man with 3
middle name had ever been re. I
lected president Of the United O
tates. The simple fact is that
very president with d middle n
anne up to Grant had for one rea- il
IN or another failed to be re- Z,
ected: John Quincy Adams. s,
lartin Van Buren-if his was a o
iple name-William Henry Har- y
son and James Knox Folk r
ven since Grant, who may be q
i'd to have been exempt from all
les, the tradition has held good. h;
