FRENCH ELECT
PRESIDENT IN
JANUARY NEXT
LYONS. France. Nov., 8— The
election of a successor to President
Poincare is now only two months dis
tant, yet parliamentary elections to
choose members of the senate and
chamber of deputies must first !»•*
held, as these in joint session at Ver
sailles in Jaunary must elect the ten
th president of the republic.
Results of the coming election arc
regarded as more obscure than any
since the fall of the empire. This is
all the more true because of the death
of one-half million voters in the wu**,
the coming of age of an equal num
her. and the anticipated modifications
of party lines by new issues resulting
from the war and reconstruction.
Six hundred deputies and three hun
I dred senators are to be chosen. No
aspirant for any of these seats has
vet officially declared his candidacy.
: There will be no primaries or local
conventions, as in America, hut the
'candidates will be selected by parW
' committees with various combinations
[ of different partes whose principle*

an* not too widely soperated.
The Socialists are resolved not < >
combine with any other party, but the
Radicals have decided to form union
t ckets in some districts with others
purely republican organizations.
The wide difference between prcsi
den iel elections in France and the
. I uiccd States is illustrated in the fact
that here the president is chosen by
parliament, while in A|ierioa the chief
executive is • lected by the vote of the
people for oleetoi's. Contrary to what
I opinions abroad might expect from tin
French, elections here arc peaceful
when compared to those of America.
Kntirely new legislative and execu
tive machinery is to be selected. Th :
order of this election will be election
of municipal and general councils com
bined. of deputies and senators, or
ganization of the congress at Ve*sail
les to choose a president, reappoint
ment of the old cabinet by the new
president, and the formation of a new
cabinet by the new premier, unless ho
j chooses to maintain the old cabinet in
j power.
Under the new electoral law the
legislative districts have been reduced
from dot) to 87, and instead of voting
tor a single deputy, as formerly, the
electors will vote for as many depu
ties as are alloted [o any one depart
ment. The number of these ranges
from one to forty-four. The govern
