1.-TWO from each state).

Each Senator has vote, therefore
| it will be necessary for any Of the
candidate to receive 49 votes, in or
der to be chosen vice-president by the
Senate. According to the table of
votes given just above Dawes, the
Republican candidate ough to receive
the election by the senators, and this
in turn will result in his selection as
president in case the House fails to
elect one.
If the three radical Republicans
and the two Farmer-labor senators
join the Democratic legion then there
is chance for Governor Bryan, the
Democratic candidate for vice-presi-
dent, to become the president of the
United States.
In case the presidential electors
fail to elect man to the position it
| is hoped that the House will be able
to do so. 1t is hardly possible that
either Dawes or Bryan will be ten
dered the high position. However,
there is a possibility of just that hap
pening and it is well for the voting
public to know the facts of the case.
Nothing has been said in this ar
ticle about the candidacy of Robert
LaFollette. His chances for election
are so very small that we do not fig
ure hom a possibility. He claims GA
electrial votes in nine states, what is
that compared to the 800 electoral
votes claimed by Coolidge in 46
states; or the 213 electoral votes
claimed by Davis in 40 states. The
only thing that LaFollette can do is
to swing his influence to either side
and disrupt the carefully laid plans
of the two dominant parties.
The platform of the Republican
party is meeting with much favor and
good will. The platform formed by
the Democratic party has many
hazy and indefinite planks in it and
it is the solemn duty of every Ameri-
can voter to look we'll into the vari-
Gus phases of these platforms and to
weigh each measure carefully and dill
igently. From all indications we are
on the verge of a splendid and pros
porous era. A foolish political move
on the part of the voters of the ma
ton may throw us back into the same
old rut of which we are emerging.

WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF COL
IDGE OR DAVIS ARE NOT
ELECTED?
(By w. B. Morgan)

1t so happens that the president is
not elected by direct vote of the
people like the governor is, but by
the presidential electors chosen from
each state. Each state has as many
electors as it has senators and rep
resentatives in Congress. For ex-
ample Minnesota has two senators
and ten representatives in Congress
Therefore we have twelve presiden.
tial electors.
When you go to the polls to vote
next November you will find on the
ballot the names of twelve candidates
for presidential electors, under the
heading, Republican = Coolidge; and
twelve candidate under the heading
Democrat-Davis and also IL candi-
dates for electors for Senator La
Toilette. The ballots in the different
states differ only in regard to the
number of candidates under each
heading.
Either Coolidge or Davis must re-

PRETTY FAIR REPUBLICAN
DOCTRINE

Following the nomination of Con-
gresham Thomas Schall as the Re-
publican candidate for the United
States Senate from Minnesota there
was considerable dissention, particul-
arly among those who had been ac-
tive in the interests of Judge Oscar
Hallam and Hon. Ole Sageng.
A few evenings ago Congressman
Schall delivered an address at Win
dom in which he unequivically
pledged his loyalty to the Republican
party and the candidates for Presi.
dent and Vice President. His state
ments leave no room for quibbling
and are pretty fair Republican doc
trine-the kind the average Mime.
sofa Republican can subscribe to. He
said, among other things in his Win.
dom address:
"My position with reference tc
President Coolidge and the Republi.
can party is simply one of loyalty
loyalty to the principles and candi-
dates of the party whose nominee
am for United States SENATOR" Con-
gresham Schall said. "While it is
true that l owe my nomination large
ly to the rank and file and not to the
political leaders, do not forget that
the Republican party was organized
by the common people to serve the
whole country,
81 am of the common people and
have faith in them. They are the
backbone of the nation and in my
opinion I think that in his free con-
dition President Coolidge will make
the Republican party serve the whole
people in accordance with the high
est ideals of American statesman
ship. Equality of opportunity must
be the guiding principle of any
party that will endure !"
president Coolidge, Congressman
Schall explained, has become the ma
tons executive without the necessity
of becoming politically shackled with
prediction promises.

hearts of the American people as

ceive 266 electoral votes in order to
win in November, as there are 531
electoral votes spread out throughout
the various states. Therefore it is
not necessarily the candidate that re-
ceives the largest popular vote that
will go to the White House.
When the November election is all
over the electors from each state
meet and vote for president and vice
president. If the Republican electors
win in Minnesota they will cast
twelve votes for Coolidge and twelve
votes for Dawes for vice-president.
A certificate of this ballot is then
sent to the president of the Senate
at Washington. After these certifi-
Gates are in then the president of the
Senate opens these and reads them at
a joint sssion of the Senate and the
House of Representatives. If any
candidate receives 266 votes, in other
words majority, then he is declared
president, and will take office March
"A, 1925.
Because of the political unrest
at the present time, there is a
big possibility that neither Coolidge
or Davis will receive the required
number of electoral votes for cleo
ton. The Constitution provides that
if no person have such majority
then from the three highest numbers
the House of Representatives shall
choose by ballot the president, each
state having one vote. There are 48
states and it requires a majority to
elect. If the vote goes to the House
it will require the votes of 25 states.
The Senate chooses the vice-president
|if the electors fail to elect one. For
tunately for the country at this time,
it is the present Congress and not the
one that will be elected next Novem-
ber who does the choosing.
In last weeks Minneapolis Tribune
the political editor predicted twelve
votes from Minnesota for Coolidge.
He apparently assumed this from the
fact that eight of the representatives
from this state are Republican, thus
the Republicans would have major
ity and enough to secure the states
vote. At present the state delega-
tions in the House stand as follows:
Republicans 23
Democrats ~
llC y
The states where tie exists will
have no vote on the president unless
they change their political attitudes
before November. This is very un-
likely, and the result will be that the
House will be unable to select pres
ident since neither party has major
ity of the 48 votes.
The next step necessary to elect a
man to the highest position in the
land is one based on legal political
technicalities. The Constitution pro-
vides that in case the House is unable
to elect a president then the vice
president takes the chair. But, we
have no vice-president at this time
and will have none when the election
takes place. So the only vice-presi-
dent possible is the one that the SEN
ate will elect if there is no choice by
the presidential electors. The ques-
tion then arises whom will the Senate
choose? The present Senate is di-
vided as:
