stood one throw for each man, and
the excitement grew to high pitch as
the grapplers came together for the

JOHN BIG JOHN WINS

John Big John lived up to his name
as champion Indian wrestler when he
threw Pat Mcintosh of Amigo twice
last Sunday afternoon at the Lac du
Flambeau Woodman Hall.
Pat Mcintosh is the champion mid
die weight wrestler of the state and
is credited with two victories over
Big John. However, Big John never
did concede that Mcintosh was the
better wrestler, so match was arran-
ged for the afternoon of the Fourth
of July. This fell through because of
car trouble which Mcintosh had while
on his way to Lac du Flambeau from
Amigo. The match was then promoted
to take place last Sunday. So sure
was each of the wrestlers that he
would be the victor, that they agreed
on winner-take-all basis, with the re-
suit that Big John received $214 for
victory over Mcintosh.
The victory was not an easy one

es ticket and procure votes for Bryan.
The margin is narrow, and LaFollette
might easily be the deciding factor.
One need only go back to 1916 to
see how delicate is the present situa-
ton. In that year the electoral college
stood 277 for Wilson and 254 for HUI
ghes. A third party candidate control
ling, for example, the 13 electoral
votes of California, would have thrown
the election into the House. How
many electoral votes La Toilette will

dent. who would Immediately succeed
to the Presidency, just as Coolidge
succeeded Harding as soon as the vac
ancy occurred.
In the present Senate there are 43
Democrats, 81 Republicans and 2
Farmer Laborites. These figures
would appear to ensure the election of
Dawes, providing there is no change
in the character of the Senate as a
result of the November elections, and
providing always that LaF'ollette
would not switch number of Repub-
lican Senators from the Coolidge-Daw,

to figure on. 1t may be something
for the two dominant parties to con-
slider seriously.
LaFollette supporters are claiming
he will carry between eight and six
teen states. If he carries only Wiscon
sin, Minnesota, North Dakota, South
Dakota and Montana, such result
would likely prevent either Coolidge
or Davis from winning the necessary
majority of 266 electoral votes neces-
sary to elect the President. Even the
electoral vote Of any one state might
prevent majority.

Maybe Neither Coolidge,
Davis Nor LaFOIIette
UNUSUAL SITUATION MAKES POS
sIBLE FINAL CHOICE OF
BRYAN OR DAWES
BY Edward Percy Howard

Fancy conservative newspaper
publishing on it's first page a story to
the effect that neither Coolidge no1
Davis nor LaFollette will be elected
President of the United States in
November. At first glance such a
statement might seem outside the
realm of possibility, but the political
situation is complex and the election
machinery such that it does not re
quire much imagination to foresee the
possibility, if not the probability, of
such situation. Almost anything
may happen in November
There are sci votes in the Electoral
College. The electoral college is com
posed of electors from each state,
equal in number to the number of
Senators and Representatives to which
the state is entitled. For example,
New York state has two Senators and
43 Representatives. Therefore, New
York has forty-five votes in the cleo
toral college. The total membership
of the electoral college equals the to-
tai membership of the Senate and
House 531 In voting it will be re-
membered that the people vote for
the electors of their states, these
names appearing on the ballot, and
not those of Coolidge or Davis or La
Toilette
The Constitution provides that a
majority of these sci electoral votes
or 266, is necessary to the choice of
a President. The person having the
greatest number of votes, of course,
wins when there are only two candi-
dates in the field, but with three the
complexities begin.
Here is the constitutional clause
''The person having the greatest
Tin the Electoral College) for Presi-
dent shall be the President, if such
number be majority of the whole
number Of electors appointed; and if
no person having such majority, then
from the persons having the highest
numbers, not exceeding three, on the
list of those voted for as President
the House of Representatives shall
choose Immediately by ballot, the
President"

EIecting a President,

Now let us turn to the situation.
If the candidate receiving merely the
largest number of electoral votes
could be chosen, then the entry of La.
Toilette into the field would be unim-
portant, according to unbiased and
astute political judges. But this is not
the case, and there are many political
discovers who regard it as highly I'M
likely that majority Of the electoral
vote will be won by any of the candi-
dates.
The second Monday following Janu-
airy the electors in each state chosen
at the November election meet in
their respective state capftols and de-
clare for their candidates. The votes
will then be sent by messenger to the
president of the Senate in Washing
ton. They will be counted on the sec
ond Wednesday in February before
the joint session of the House and
Senate.
Then the result will be announced.
If no candidate has a majority two
hundred and sixty-six votes-then the
House of Representatives must i'm
mediately convene for the purpose OF
choosing a President The choice be-
ing limited to the three highest candi
dates, would mean that the House
would have only the option of choos-
ing one, either Davis, Coolidge or La
Toilette
Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1924-07-31
How House Votes.

Here is where the election machin-
cry takes on a different color. There
is no voting by individuals in the
House. Moreover, each state has only
one vote. Rhode Islands vote equals
that of New York. The vote of each
state is determined by majority of
the Congregressional Representative
in that state. This point grasped let
it be remembered that the "blocs" in.
several delegations hold the balance
of power. Thus the LaFollette-W Wheel
er candidacy becomes something to be
reckoned with.
Anyone familiar with the line up in
the House last year can see how like
ly it is that neither Davis nor Coolidg
would be able to obtain a majority
A deadlock is quite on the cards-a
repetition of the Democratic National
Convention, perhaps, until March 4,
1925. At that time the new House
comes into being, but THE NEW
HOUSE HAS NOTHING TO DO
WITH THE CHOICE OF A PRESI-
DENT.
In the event of adeadlock until the
disintegration of the present House
the duty would pass to the Senate,
and here it must be remembered that
THE SENATE VOTES ONLY FOR
THE VICE PRESIDENT AND NOT
FOR THE PRESIDENT. If the coun-
try stands without a President, then
that office being vacant, must be filled
by the man chosen as Vice President
by the Senate.
At this point we read another e1imi
nation. The Senate is limited to vote
for the two highest candidates. So the
likelihood is the choice would lie be-
tween General. Dawes and Governor
Bryan.
Different In Senate
Now we come to the Senate vote.
The Senate does not vote by states
like the House. The Senators vote as
individuals, and majority vote de-
cides. The Senate membership being
96. 40 votes would elect Vice Presi-
