 have no doubt, as we have also men

OF the eight Presidents who have held
public, over forty years ago, four found
conditions so intolerable that they re-
signed, the fifth was assassinated, the
sixth met with shocking death that
still remains shrouded in merclful mys-
terry, while Armand Fallieres, like his
immediate predecessor. Emile Loubet,
leaves the Elyste so thoroughly weary
of his life there that he declares that
nothing in the world could induce him
to serve another term.
1t Is owing to this as we'll as to the
fact that the defeat of a candidate en-
tails a species of political extinction
for several years afterward that the
statesmen whose names have been put
forward as suitable timber for the
Presidency of the republic express their
reluctance to be even mentioned In con-
nection Herewith, and thus, whereas
here In the United States there are no
less than three Of the most conBpicu-
Gus figures in public life eagerly seek
ing the office Of President for the next
four years, in France 1t is the once
which is seeking the man. who in most
cases Is endeavoring to eiude 1t
The powers Of the French President
are determined by the laws OF the 18th
and 25th Of July, 1875. and are as
follows: .s .-r
/. The right of reelection.
9. The initiative Of the laws sub
mitted to the two chambers, and, when
voted. the PRONUNCIATION and the super
vision of the execution thereof.
3. The right Of pardon.
4. The disposition Of the armed
forces.
5. The appointment to all civil and
military offices.
6. The presidency Of all national
ceremonies and festivals. .....
Z. The right of dissolving the Cham
Der Of Deputies, with the sanction OF
the Senate. ~ ...
& The right of demanding Of the
national legislature the revision OF the
constitution.
8. The right Of summoning the ma
tional legislature in extraordinary SEES
sion.
10. The right Of adjourning both
houses of the legislature for the period
of a month, twice in each session.
II. The right Of communicating with
the two chambers by means OF mes
sages.
II. The right OF demanding Of the
chambers, by means OF a message,
re-deliberation OF measures already
enacted and concerning the advis-
ability Of which the President is in
doubt. .t
10. The negotiation and ratification
Of treaties with foreign powers
Il. The declaring OF war. but only
with the consent Of the two chambers.
From this It will be seen that while
