How the President la Klected.
The exact procedure of a presidential
election is known to comparatively f'W
people, aud a recitation of tbe principal
points is always worth while.
Thp election takes place on the first
Tuesday after the first Monday in No
vember.
The vote is for electors, the number
of whom in each etate must equal the
whole number of representatives and
senators from tbe state in congress.
The electors are required by the con
stitution to meet in their respective
etates on tbe same day, and congress
has decreed the second Monday in Jan
uary following the election as the date.
Tbe electors vote separately for prosi
dent and vice-president (one of whom at
least shall not be from the same state as
the elector), apd the list of voters, after
being signed, certified and settled, is
transmitted to Washington, directed to
tbe president of the senate.
Congress is required to be in session
for counting the ballots of the electors
upon the second Wednesday in the fol
lowing February, the president of the
senate opening the certificates in tbe
presence of the senate and house of rep
resentatives jointly assembled.
A majority of the electoral votes elects
the president and likewise the vice
president.
If no one has a majority, the election
goes to the house of representatives, tbe
three or two candidates having tbe
highest number of electoral votes being
vowed upon by states. The repreeenta
tion from each state has one vote; there
must be two-thirds of the states present
for a quorum, and a majority of the
etates elect the president.
If the bouse of representatives fails to
choose a president before the next
March 4tb, the vice-president acts as
. president.
The vice-president will have been
elected previously, in all human prob
ability, because if he has not been
named by a majority of the electoral
votes at the joint session of congress, the
senate is directed to select him by ma
jority vote from the two highest num
bers on the original list, a two-thirds
quorum being required for this action.
Beyond the provisions of the constitu
tion, an act of the forty-ninth congress
covers all proceedings in case of dispute,
and also fix the presidential succession in
tbe emergency of death, resignation and
disability in the following order : Sec
... retary of state, treasury, war,. attorney
general, postmaster-general, secretary of
the navy and interior. But this acting
president muBt hva'e been approved by
the senate as cabinet officer, and within
constitutional requirements for presi
dential elegibility. He is compelled to
. convene congress immediately and with
twenty days notice.
Hood River Mote.
No opposition line of boats on tbe
rive- so far. The Regulator line has too
many friends to make a competing line
profitable.
A big land elide occurred on the
Washington side of the Columbia, below
tbe Knapp place, last Monday. Tbe
loud report of the avalanche was dis
tinctly heard at Franklin, where it
seemed as if the slide had occurred on
this side of the river.
Mr. J. N. McCoy received word
Wednesday that his daughter, Mrs. Ag
nes Jones, living near Boise City, Idaho,
way lying at tbe point of death. Mr.
McCoy being in feeble health, could not
make the trip to Idaho, but Mrs. Milton
Odell left here Wednesday night to go to
her sister's becUide.
Hood river was booming, last Sunday
after the heavy rains of Saturday and
Saturday night. There had been a big
fail of snow in the munntains, and the
chinook winds melting the enow irised
a big riee in tbe river. At li.f head
gate of the Improvement Co. 'a ditch
there was a rise of eleven feet in the
river, and floating logs threatened the
flume, but it eecaped uninjured.
The bard of directors of the Improve
ment Company appointed H. H. Bailey,
L. Henry and Joseph Wilson to go up to
tc thehead of the ditch Wednesday and
inspect the first half-mile of flume that
is now completed, with water running
in it. Another half-mile will be com
pleted before the end of the month, un
less the weather should be. too eevere to
continue work. The flume was expected
to reach the bridge yesterday. Glacier.

Electric Bitters.
Electric Bitters is a' medicine suited
for any season, but perhaps more gener
ally needed when the languid, exhausted
feeling prevails, when the liver is torpid
and sluggish and tbe need of a tonic and
and alterative is felt. A prompt use of
this medicine has often averted long and
perhaps fatal bilious fevers. No medi
cine will' act more surely counteracting
and freeing tbe system from the malar
ial poison. Headache, Indigestion, Con-
