It will therefore require 672 vot€s tonominate, and sincé the rules of Democratic national conven- tions require two-thirds to nominate a candidate, it follows that one-third or 336 votes can prevent any nomination. This old two-thirds rule was first adopt- ed as the Democratic policy through the influence of Van Buren, and in 1849 it defeated his own nomination. Since that date the two-thirds rule has always prevailed so as to provide that something approaching unanimity for whoever is satisfaction with the candidhte select- ed.

Some imp reported this illegal capture of the finny tribe, and immediately the fish warden of Tyrone was after the father, had him arrested, and fined $25 and costs.
