BY Frederic J. Haskin.


There were many features of tht
presidential election OF 1900 that may
find counterparts in the present cam.
paign and the coming election. To be.
gin with, the Federalists had been ir
power for IL years and there were
many signs of swing of the political
pendulum. Adams, who had reap.
pointed the cabinet of the last Wash
ington administration, later split with
his advisers, because they Needed the
advice of Hamilton more than that OF
their chief So the Federalists became
divided into two wings and were pop
ularly referred to as the "Adamites
and the "Pickeronians." The "Pick-
eronians" were the extreme Federal
fists, to whom the policies of Adams
had given offence. They determined
to try to elevate Pickering to the
presidency and to degrade Adams to
the second place. They never publicly
proclaimed that purpose, for it would
have defeated it's own ends. The lead
err OF the conspiracy was Wolcott, still
retained by Adams as secretary of the
treasury
The administration was unpopular.
Not only had it divided the party into
factions, but had not it cursed the
country with such a rule that four
more years of imitation of England
might make the memory of the Revo-

With all this against Adams admin

In this predcament they sought out
Washington, and Governor Morris
wrote him a letter telling him that
Adams could not be elected again, and
that there was but one name in all
the country that could revivify the
waning fortunes of the party and that
was the name of Washington. But the

Miners are among the most heroic

this is that they are humorous in their
boldness.

there was a cave-in which imprisoned
a miner named Jack Thornton. The
accident happened on Friday after
noon, and the fellow laborers of the
entombed man set to work at once to

morning. however. that they reached
his prison chamber, and by this time
they were wondering whether he had
