HISTORY AGAINST
PRESIDENT WILSON
American Voters Have Refused
Since Lincoln's Era to Be,
Elect Democrat.
FUTURE FAVORS ' HUGHES
By A. R. GROH. .
Woodrow Wilson's chance of a
second term as president, viewed in
the light of history, is very slim. Be
ginning with 1860, no democratic
president has been re-elected to suc
ceed himself, Four republicans had
this honor Lincoln, Grant, McKm
ley and Roosevelt. Cleveland had
two terms, but not successive terms.
rnor to 1860 nartv names with
reference to the oolicies and orinci-
plcs of today were rather uncertain.
But in that period of our history only
one president running as a democrat
was re-elected. He was Andrew
Jackson. .
Ihe democrats of todav claim
Thomas Jefferson as their political
ancestor. But Jefferson, in his day,
was a republican. Madison and Mon
roe were republicans also. All these
were re-elected. Washington, the
federalist, was also given two terms.
s In Prime of Life.
Hughes is 54 and Wilson 59 vears
old. In this respect they are both at
the time of life when most ot our
presidents have been elected. Seven
teen presidents have been m their
50's when they were elected; five were
in their 60's and six in their 40's. The
first Harrison was the oldest presi
dent, having reached 68 years when he
was inaugurated. , Roosevelt was the
youngest, 42 years.
lolin Adams lived a auarter of a
century after his term as president,
dying at the age of 90. His death oc
curred the same day as that of Thom
as Jefferson, July 4, 1826. Jefferson
had reached the age of 8J.
Ihe president who was the young
est at the time of his djtath was Gar
field, assassinated at the age of 49
when he had been president only six
months.
Both College Men.
Both of our principal candidates
this year are university men. Wilson
is a Frmceton man and Hughes is a
graduate of Brown and Columbia. Of
the men who preceded them in the
f 'residential chair eighteen were col
eee graduates and nine were not.
Three were graduates of Harvard and
three ot William and Mary.
Wilson s home is in New" Jersey
and Hughes' in New York. No other
president but W Mson came trom Mew
Jersey, y Five came from New York.
They were Van Buren, from Kinder-
hook, N. Y.; Fillmorej from Buffalo;
Arthur, New York City, Cleveland,
from Buffalo, and ' Roosevelt from
Oyster Bay. . . . -
five presidents lived in Virginia at
the time , of their election, five in
Ohio, two in Massachusetts, three in
Tennessee and one each in Louisi
ana, New Jersey, New Hampshire,
Pennsylvania. Illinois and Indiana
and Washington, D. C. Grant was
the one who lived in Washington.
Twenty-four of our exTpresidents
art dead, Fiy of thfjn are jiuried in
Virginia -(the last Deing uyier, wno
died in 1862), four in New York, four
in Ohio, three in Tennessee, two in
Massachusetts and one each in. Ken

Foster Daughter '
' Sues to Get Part of
Rich Uncle's Estate
Alleging that an agreement made
in Austro-Hungary in the 80's be
tween her father and uncle, when the
former advanced the latter money to
come to America and buy a farm, has
been violated, Mrs. Rosa Boys, foster
daughter of the late Mrs. Barbara
Poppenberger, has tiled suit with the
clerk of the district court against
heirs named in the will. '
An estate estimated to be worth
$25,000 is involved in the case. Mrs.
Boys claims that she was to have
come into the property of her foster
mother when the latter died.
According to the petitioner, her
father, Ignatz P. Poppenberger, who
is still alive, and her uncle, John Pop
penberger, husband of Barbara, as
young men in Austro-Hungary had
saved 600 gulden.
Mrs. Boys sets forth that her father
loaned the money to her uncle, who
came to America and purchased a
farm with it in Douglas county. '
Mrs. Bdys came to this country
when she wasi3 years old, becoming,
she states, a 'member of her uncle's
household as a foster daughter.
When her uncle died his widow
came into possession of the property,
the petition states. 1 '
Mrs. Boys maintains that she con
tinued to serve as a dutiful daughter,
but that the alleged agreement made
between her fattier and uncle was
broken when it was discovered she
had not been left the estate in the
will.
She further states that her father
is still in ignorance of the fact that
John Poppenberger became rich in the
United Mates with his (Ignatz sj
loan as a nucleus. '
Charge is Made that
Hummel's Chimney Smokes
Smoke Inspector Chrisman was in
structed by the city -commissioners'
committee of the whole to investigate
a smoke nuisance at the west side of
Hanscom park.
It appears that there is a green
house there, managed by one Joe
Hummel. It belongs to the city of
Omaha, of which Mr. Hummel is a
commissioner.
Complaint, was received from resi
dents jof the neighborhood that the
smoke from the greenhouse needs to
be inspected, inasmuch as it pours
trom the chimney in black volume
and falls on the houses and on the
nice clean clothes on. the line Mon
day mornings.
, Mr. Chrisman will see this man,
Hummel, and read the riot act and
the city smoke ordinance to him.

The result is that when heavy rains

pipes is more than the twenty-two-inch
pipe can carj-y off and it backs
up on the low ground. '
"The result is," said the spokesman
