He bases this on his knowledge of conditions in Cuba, backed up by the steps that have been taken by the United States Government to prevent high sugar prices because of the aid being given the republic of Cuba In its present financial difficulties.

FOR 34TH PRESIDENT.

The 1920 presidential election in the United States will be tha S4th in the history of the republic. For mer elections resulted as follows: 1789 Previous to 1804 each elector voted for two candidates for Presi dent. The one who received the largest number of votes was de clared President, and the one who received the next largest number of votes was declared Vice-president. George Washington was declared President and John Adams Vice-president. 1792 George Washington, President; John Adams, Vice-president.

1796 John Adams, President; Thomas Jefferson, Vice-president. 1800 There being a tie between Thomas Jefferson, Republican, and Aaron Burr, Republican, the choice devolved upon the House of Representatives. Jefferson received the votes of ten Estates, which, being the largest vote cast for a candidate, elected him President, Burr received the votes of four states, which, being the' naxt largest vote, elected hint Vice-president. There were two blank votes. 1804 The Constitution of the United States having been amended, the electors at this election voted for a President and a Vice- president, instead of for two candidates for President.

Voters Decide Personnel of Electoral College, Which In Turn Ballots for President (By Canadian Press.) New Tork, October 30. Tuesday of next week will make history In the United States, for on that date it will be determined whether the administration of the republic for the next four years Is to be Democratic as now, or Republican, as for many years prior to 1912.

It wUl be decided on that day whether the first citizen of the United States for the four years from March 4 next is to be Senator Warren Gamaliel Harding, df Ohio, or Governor James Mld- dleton Cox, of the same state. The fate of the League of Nations covenant, so far as the United States Government Is concerned with that covenant, also hangs on Tuesday's voting, as well as numerous other matters of public policy now being threshed out on the hustings. Thanks to the terms of a rigid Constitution, the people of the United States always know when their elections are coming. The presidential election comes once in four years and, to make the occasion properly thrilling, many states have their local political tilts for the election of state officers on the same day. But of course the federal contest stands out before everything, more especially at a time when the issues involved are tof such tremendous importance, and the policies of the rival parties so directly opposed to each other.

There are many minor parties in the field, but the struggle is between Democrats and Republicans, between Cox and Harding. IS 60LEMN The electors of the republic. Joined this year by many millions of women voters, do not vote directly for their presidential candidates. They merely elect members to an electoral college, and the electoral college doeB the rest, reporting its findings formally to Congress. Of course, when the final returns are In Tuesday night, or Wednesday morning, everybody will know who the next tenant of the White Hoiwse will be.

But, strictly speaking, the new president will not be elected until January, and will not take office until March. The Constitution has surrounded the Important Job of president-making with safeguards and red tape enough to make It a very solemn ritual Indeed. According to the statutes, "the electors of President and VlcePresf-dent shall be appointed In each state on the Tuesday next after tho first Monday in November, In every fourth year succeeding every election of a President and Vice-President" That settles the date. Now for the electors themselves. "The number Of electors shall be equal to the number of Senators and Representatives to which the several states are by law entitled at the time when the President and Vice-Presi dent to be chosen come Into office." That is to eay, when a United States voter goes to the polls next Tuesday to perform his duty (or her duty) as a citizen, he (or she) will vote for electors, not presidential candidates.

In each state a slate of presidential electors will be elected In this way, by the popular vote. The Republican slate, if elected, will cast Its vote in the electoral college for Harding; the Democratic slate, if chosen, will record In favor of Cox. By this method of selection, In which each state influences the choice of President and Vice-President according to Its representation In Congress, it is mathematically possible for a candidate to secure election even when the popular vote favors his opponent. POPULAR WILL DEFEATED. There are several Instances on record where a president' has been elected a majority ot the electoral college when the popular verdict was against him.

In the year 1876 Rutherford Hayes, Republican, was elected president, receiving 185 votes in the electoral college) as against 184 for hla opponent, Samuel J. Tilden, Democrat. Tlltlen had a plurality In the popular vote of 250.935. Similarly, in 1888, when Grover Cleveland, Democrat, had a popular plurality of 98,017 over Benjamin Harrison, Republican, the latter secured 233 votes on the electoral college to 168 votod polled for Cleveland, and was declared president. This happens when populous states, entitled to a heavy representation In Congress, nd so to many members In tha electoral college, are carried by the winning party by small majorities, while states less fortunate In their congressional representation, give majorities to the loser.

In the year 1908 President Taft won 821 votes In the electoral college, as against 162 for his Demo-cratlc opponent, William Jennings Bryan, and tha popular plurality In favor of Taft was In 1913 Woodrow Wilson secured 435 electoral college votes as against 8 for Taft. his Republican antagonist, and 88 for Theodore Roosevelt, who ran on the Progressive Ticket, Wilson's vots plurality In the coun try generally was 3,113,613, In the oloctlon of. 1315, which was a clous contest, Wilson received 277 Vole In the electoral collcno us against 254 fur Charliw 10, Hughes, who led the Republican ticket. Wilson's plurality In th popular vots was only 681.041. 4 On Tuesday next, then, the members of tha electoral college will be.

Ruthernberg, of Cleveland, were convicted of criminal anarch by a Jury In Supreme Court here tonight Justice Weeks immediately sentenced them to state's prison for terms of five to ten years each.

James Larkin, Irish leader, convicted several months ago, was indicted at the same time. Ferguson defended himself and Ruthenberg throughout the trial. Euthenberg testified he had been the Socialist Party's candidate for several offices In Ohio, including those of mayor of Cleveland and governor of the state.

When the Jury, returned Its verdict and Justice Weeks asked the men If they had anything to say why Judgment should not be pronounced, each made a speech, criticising the court "as part of the capitalist group." At the opening of the trial, Ferguson sought Ut have the case put over to the next criminal term of the Supreme Court on the ground that was Impossible for Justtce Weeks to preside fairly because of prejudice to the defendants. In his speech tonight he declared the court had acted as prosecutor throughout the trial which, he asserted, "has not been a trial." "Your Honor's prejudice Is shown," Ferguson said, "by the cynical way "four Honor has said that this Is a government the majority of people cannot control." i In Imposing sentence Justice Weeks said he was "not surprised" at the manner and language of Ruthenberg, but that he was surprised at that of Ferguson, who, he declared, had liad opportunities "he would have had In no other land." Ruthenberg said he was 38 years old and was born In Akron, Ohio. He gave his residence as Cleveland and said he had served a workhouse term in 1917 for conviction for a mlsda-meanor. Ferguson Bald he was 32 vears old and wis born In Winnipeg, Canada, of Russian parents. He gav his home as Chicago.

Charged With 4 Bribery and Corruption of Government Officials SHAMELESS PROFITEERS Exploitation of War Contracts for Supplies Used in Making Munitions Also Alleged By AUSTIN WEST. Special Cable to the N.Y. Times una Montreal Gazette. Registered In Accordance with the Copyright Act. Milan, October 29.

A Judicial in quiry Into the astounding frauds upon the state which are daily coming to In almost every branch of the publte service has Just led to the arrest of Commendatore Alfredo Sls-'mondi, Commendatore Egidlo Gaslinl and Cavalier Giuseppe Manca, who are respectively president, vice-president and managing director of the i National Oil Trust in Genoa, and of olive oil refineries at Porto Mauriaio. Sismondi and his confederates are accused of having extended their ou and greasing operations" to the wholesale bribery and corruption of 1 Government functionaries through they obtained contracts, based on false data, for thousands of tons vegetable and mineral oils, with resultant loss to the Government of not less than 150,000,000 lire. According to further charges made by the law officers of the Crown, Sismondi and Gaslinl exploited their departmental controllership in Eome during the war, by shameless pro fiteering on acids and glycerins for 1 munitions. i The charges against Manca are particularly grave. He began his 1 career as an obscure clerk of the Rome ministry of agriculture.

On transferred to the oil commis-1 sariat he came under Sismondi's in- fluence, and when his misdeeds threatened to result In exposure ask ed leave to resign. Thereupon Sis mondi called him to Porto Maurlzio arid-created for him the post of man ager of the Sairo refineries. Manca forthwith threw caution to the winds and built himself a splendid villa at that watering place. Later 1 ho roturnedto Rome as head of the oil commissariat, and finally the National Oil Trust rewarded him for his frauds In their favor by ap pointing mm their director at a princely salary. When the Roman Journal, the Epoea, first divulged the frauds, Manca had- the impudence to start legal proceedings, and the directors the Oil Trust flooded the newspaper! offices with blatant professions of innocence and patriotic service, citing a number of leading manufacturers to testify in their behalf.

But as the Sairo Trust, founded in 3912, was in desperate straits on the eve or the war, and yet has managed to increase its original capital to 6,400,000, suspicion was aroused at the way in which its officials were importuning the Gov ernment for urgent liquidation of outstanding accounts. Hence the case was ultimately adjourned for more thorough Judicial investigation, the luauiui oi wmcn are here epitomized: The property of the incriminated companies, Including crnnUna candle factories at Pozen, those of the Grain Trust and the Rivarolo and Porto Maurlzio refineries, have auquesiraiea; the offices and residences of the accused officials in ujiiwt imve oeen ransacked and seal-'ed up, and vast quantities of documents have been seized, together with all their credits and deposits at the Rome Commissariat of Supplies, which amount to 1,680,000.
