Sacramento. Cal. April A. - Will liam c. McAdoo, speaking in the in terest of his candidacy for the demo cratic nomination for president last night. asserted Wall street wants to retain control of the government be- cause it desires to use the funds of the federal treasury.

 Always use enough Rinso to get big lasting suds after the clothes are in, for the secret of Rinso's wonderful cleansing power lies in these thick rich suds.
 How this new soap works: Rinso dissolves instantly and com pletely in boiling water. This so- lution makes the water in your tub soapy all through. It soaks dirt out.

Fight for Presidency Like
Struggle Of a Century Ago

Andrew jackson, Henry Clay, John
C. Calhoun, John Quincy Adams and
William II. Crawford, men whose
m are on the tongue tip of every
American school boy formed the
quintette that one hundred years ago
started in the race for the Presidency
of the United States, a fight which
ended in four of the five going to
the people with the result hat the
election was thrown into the House
of Representatives, the result many
persons fear will ensue from the COM
ing voting in November.
1t is a significant fact that the
century has rounded out only t o put
the country face to face with a poll
teal situation analogous in many
ways with hat of 1s24-just one
hundred years ago. The only funda-
mental difference is that one hundred
years ago all the candidates pretend
ed at least to be of one political faith.
The great battle was for the vote of
the State of New York, then as now,
and the territory about which ner-
vousness was felt was that of the
Middle West. Also one of the can-
didates was from New England.
, 1924-08-13

Each of the candidates had a re-
markable record of public service,
the life of each being filled with a
chievement which made the contest
one of dramatic interest-perhaps
the bitterest fight in the history of
the nation.
The man whose name is the least
known today entered the list with
the advantage over all the others
William H. Crawford. Maligned,
and brought down to the present gen
Grafton as a political trickster, Craw-
ford stood in life as a man of great
integrity and of more than usual a
bility. Crucified on the cross of I'M
scrupulous politics, the victim of out
rageous ISLANDERS at the hands of
Adams, Crawford is seer today in a
light so false that it will take gener-
atoms to place him where he proper
ly belongs. He was one of the fore
most constructive thinkers when he
served in the United States Senate.
He made a profound impression on
the thinking interests of the country
as Secretary of the Treasury in the
cabinet of Monroe. As a.diplomat in
France he displayed unusual acumer

and tact. Indeed, he was so beloved
in the country that he could have
been elected over Monroe had he car
ed to express even the thought of
such a thing. Devoid of political in
trigue, however, he set the suggestion
firmly aside only to be blackened by
his political enemies.
Then there was Adams, who had
distinguished himself in foreign land,
in the Senate and as Secretary of
State-the man of courage, convic-
ton and dominating personality. And
And Andrew jackson, popular hero
following his great victory at New
Orleans. They were powerful con
tenders. Henry Clay, the speaker of
the House, magnetic, popular, digni-
fled, broad-minded, a master of poll
teal manipulation with a host of
youth behind him because of his eff
fort to lead the nation to war with
England. The record of John c.
Calhoun made him also a dangerous
contender. Secretary of War in the
Af
cabinet with Adams and Crawford
he had proved himself a statesman Of
outstanding ability.
Such was the calibre of those who
entered the race. They were without
party. Politics was reduced to per-
sonality. In the House, if Adams
fought for an appropriation for the
State Department, Crawford and Cal
houn would lead their followers a.
gainst the proposition. If Calhoun
asked for an appropriation, Adams
and Crawford would strangle it.
When Crawford wanted to put his
hand in the till; Calhoun and Adams
were pitted against him to the death.
The fight for the Presidency pro-
ceeded, filled with intrigue, SANDER,
and dramatic episode. The story is
too long to be told here. 1t requires
another chapter. 1t shows the inter
vention of Providence and is well
worth re-telling.
The second chapter of this stirring
political struggle will appear in the
Enterprise next week.
