Thii irst session >f congress So the lew Caj
ltal was destined to witness some of the most
exciting scenes In the history of ihe nation. Al-
though the Federalists had a small majority In
congress, it was evident that the political con-
trol of the country which they had had since
constitutional government went into effect was
fast slipping away from them. Adams' rigor-
ous enforcement of the alien and sedition laws
had driven luuny foreign-born citizens Into the
rising Democratic-Ilepublicai party,' Then, too,
there were other causes for bitterness which
marked the doom of the once all-powerful Fed-
eralists. who had been in control of the govern-
ment of the new nation continuously for eleven
years.
The Presidential tnpalgn of 800 was an
exciting one wit! Johi Adams as the Federal-
ist. Bodldat* or re-election, running with
Pinckney as . - I il ent.
Opposed to them on the Democratic-Republican
ticket was Thomas Jefferson (then Vice Pres-
ident) for President and Aaron Burr for Vice
President.
The election resulted In a victory for the
Democratic-Republicans, who received 72 elec-
toral votes to the Federalists' 05. The Const!-
tu - **ti •--- time provided for each Presiden-
tial elector to vote for two persons without
designating dc va to :>e President and
which to be Vice president. The person re-
ceiving the highest number of votes was to be
President and the next highest Vice President.
(By an amendment to the Constitution In 1804,
the electors are now required to vote separate-
ly for President and Vice President.)
When the electoral votes were cast It was
foun hat le ci ift political mnipu tlon of
Aaron Burr had resulted In a tie vote for him-
self and Jefferson, both being higher than the
vote fjr Adams. So the election was thrown
Into the house of representatives. Amid the
greatest excitement, the bouse began to ballot
it is said, ever known lor pain.

MASTER Oil “GRAFT” | c<l|j||*nil>D expense to get the

Filched Immense Sums From
King of Spain.
In the official reports concerning
what is dow Mexico, some of them
dating back to accounts by Hernan-
dez Cortez of his administration of
affairs in the newly conquered coun-
try. These show that Cortez had an
eye out for the main chance—that of

One Sing and another arose, or
ae least this Is what Cortez said In
hla letters to the king of Spain, and
more and more money wus needed.
Finally the amount of the appropria-
tions grew into millions for tMa
great bridge, which Cortez was sup-
posed to he building at Vera Cruz.
This drain on the treasury made
adding to his private fortune by get- an impression on the mind of
ting all the money he could from
the money he
chest of the king of
the king, and o||jfpy when he was
liBBr the const of some
of his court he was found standing
hand over
Cortez saw an opportunity to ob-
tain a generous sum from the Span-
ish crown for the proposed public
Improvement. His first report to the
king in regard to the necessity for
the bridge was of an indefinite na-
ture, Just as were most of his re
porta In regard to places, things and
happenings In the land of the Az-
tecs.
In the report he said that Vera
Cruz was built at the mouth of a
river and that the river divided two
actions of the native city. He men-
tioned the fact that it would be a
very desirable thing for the king to
make an appropriation for the build-
ing of a bridge to connect the two
portions of the town. The king con-
sented to do this.
Cortez, when he once had the
king's consent, wrote that he had
;un work on the bridge, hut owing
to the fact that there was much
the treasure
One of these reports deals with
the constructing of a bridge achiss
a tiny stream which divides the city
of Vera Cruz, At the time this bridge
was built the town was a mere vil-
lage of native Indians. gt>e jf ft Wns not possible to catch a
near the shore with his

“What are you trying to
asked one of his friends. §|g
“I was trying,” said the king, “to
glimpse of that bridge which Cortez
Is building In Mexico. It has cost
enough to be large enough to be seen
from here.”
The bridge that Cortez really did
build very likely was built by bis
Indian prisoners, without tht OBtlay
of a single cent; but what Cortez
did with the money ^Hkcetved has
not been accounted for. The ancient
stone structure Is still standing, and
is an unfailing object of interest to
students of early history of Mexico.
