Probability of Strong Independent | Candidates Next Year Makes These Surmises Interesting—Tariff Debate | Between Bailey and Williams Would | Be Worth While. Next President, | i | By ARTHUR W. DUNN. | Washington, June 9. — [Special.]—' The present United States senate may have the opportunity to choose the next president of the United States. It will require a train of circum- but everything is so ar- ranged that the final method of se- lecting a president provided for in the constitution may be invoked. Should there be independent candi- dates who would receive a sufficient number of electoral votes to prevent either of the regular party candidates from having a majority of the elec- | toral college then the election would | ‘be thrown into the house of represent- atives. But the house of representa- tives could not elect. Naturally with sixty-five majority for the Democrats in the house it would be assumed that the dominant party had a majority of the state dele- gations, Such is not the case. When an election goes to the house each state has one vote. ‘On ‘this basis there. would be twenty-two votes for! the Republican candidate, twenty-one | for the Democratic candidate, and in| three states the delegation would be! equally divided, which would prevent an election by the house, -as the con- stitution says the man must have a majority of the states. | Where the Senate Comes In. The same section of the constitution which provides for a presidential elec- tion by the house says that if the house fails to elect by March 4 then | the. vice president shall be president If the electoral college fails to choose a vice president, which would be the case if a president was not chosen, then the senate elects the vice presi- dent, who becomes president on March | 4if the house does not elect. It is very seldom that a situation is such as to make the occasion ripe for giving the election to the senate. Very seldom is the balance between the states in the house.so even that neither party has‘a majority of the*States by delegations. The possibility of the senate choos. ing the next president has been dis- ' cussed because many politicians be- ' lieve that there is a probability of one if not two very important independent candidates next year. Would Be Worth While. There are men who admire both Joe Bailey and John Sharp Williams who hope to see them in a battle royal in the senate over the tariff: It would be worth while. They are both Demo. erats, both born in Mississippi, but they belong to different schools of tar- iff revision. Williams is for a reduction of the tar- iff on anything; Bailey does not be- | lieve in taking the tariff off any raw material unless it is also removed from the manufactured product. Bailey op- Williams will take reductions wherever he can get them, hoping for more another time. Bailey is strong in his views, and Willlams is not less imbued with his ideas. It would be a great debate. Maine Ousts Oregon. “If T wished tn farm raise stock ana , Senator Gallinger followed it up with ! truce, , I know of no better locality in | the United States than Maine,” said a | witness before the finance committee. | The members became interested, es- pecially when Senator Johnson = | avo asked a few questions about | Bes your apples superior to Oregon , apples?” asked Senator Clark. “Oh, yes,” replied Johnson. Then assertion that if New England gave the same attention to fruit raising as Oregon she would have the world beat- en-in the quality of apples and other | fruit. What surprised the committee was | the fact that Maine had Oregon beat- en‘in the quality of apples. Oregon has had the name for the best apples for years “News of the White House.” “Here’s your news of the White | House,” announce the keepers of the | capitol press galleries upon the arrival of a well known newspaper man with typewritten slips of what is given out to the newspaper men at the White House each day. He is the White House press agent. Several departments of the govern- ment have regular press agents, and | why not the White House, which has become the greatest news center of the executive branch of the govern- ment? How times have changed! Years ago every newspaper man hus- tled after his news in every depart- Ment and every bureau. Executive orders have closed every avenue of news in the departments save the sec- retary, and he has not time to give out the news, so a press agent does it for him. It’s always the kind which the department wants, which is not al ways satisfactory to the news gather- UNIVERSITY GASHIER DETAINED BY POLICE Charged With Embezziing $14,- 000---Says He Was Robbed, Joseph D. Bren, cashier of the Uni- versity of Minnesota, has been placed under arrest by the Minneapolis po lice, charged with the embezzlement of the $14,000 which he declared had been taken from him on the university grounds by three highwaymen. He was taken to central police sta- tion by order of Chief Michael Mealey and was given a gruelling examination until the minute of his arrest. Pierce Butler of St. Paul, member of the board of regents of the university, was present at the examination of Bren. | Chief Mealey would give absolutely | no information as to the result of; his examination of Bren, but from others who were present it was learned that Bren stuck steadfastly to his story throughout the whole of the questioning by Chief Mealey, Cap- | tain Smith, Detectives De Laittre and | Broderick, who signed the complaint against Bren, and several other mem-} bers of the department. Chief Mealey does assert, however, that his department has been unable to verify in any particular Bren’s | story of the robbery. To the contrary he asserts that he has statements from several persons who were in the vicinity of the supposed robbery which contradict Bren’s statement in that they say they saw no one there at the time in any way resembling the men Bren says robbed him. The police found that Mrs. Maud Eddington, an intimate friend of Bren’s for a number of years, had possession | of a key to the safety deposit vault | where university funds were kept. Th accounts of the university are said to be in very bad shape and the state public examiner is engaged in trying to unravel the tangle. | | ‘ABOUT THE STATE News of Especial Interest to Minnesota Readers, LEGISLATORS ARE SCORED Northern Minnesota Boosters Criticise Lawmakers for Failure to Re- apportion the State. Reapportionment as an issue in the Northern Minnesota Development as- Sociation’s convention at Duluth could not be squelched. Reso- lutions were adopted condemning the recent legislature for failure to enact @ new apportionment and for passage of the seven senator bill. Incidentally, St. Paul is to be made the headquarters for a new immigra- tion bureau to be organized and fi- nanced by the Northern Minnesota De- velopment association. Offices will be secured there, a competent man will be placed in charge and funds will be provided for advertising the northern part of the state. When the resolutions committee re- ported the reapportionment section was first read. It was adopted unani- mously. The resolutions on advertis- ing and pubicity were adopted next, the plan to advertise from St. Paul the opportunities offered.in the North- west meeting instant favor. Good roads, as urged by Governor Eberhart and other speakers at. the convention, were boosted by the ap- pointment of a committee to co-oper- ate with county boards and the state highway commission to insure the building of trunk line roads through Northern Minnesota. This committee will meet at Crookston in the near future. The w of the state recla- mation board w commended and resolutions were adopted asking the state auditor to compile a report on soil conditions in Northern Minnesota. The association will convene again in St. Cloud in December, when an active campaign for reapportionment will be started. New committees will be appointed to visit the different counties in Northern and Central Min- nesota to arouse sentiment for reap- portionment. Minnesota Lumberman Dead. Samuel McClure, wealthy and prom- inent as a logger mine owner and resi- dent of Stillwater and the St. Croix valley for fifty-five years, is dead in the Prison City following a surgical operation for strangulated hernia. He was seventy-five years old. Mr. McClure was prominent in log- ging operations on the St. Croix and in different parts of Minnesota and Wisconsin and was largely interested in mining in Montana.
