                        PRESIDENTS PRO TEMPORE OF THE SENATE

            FROM THE FIRST CONGRESS TO END OF SECOND SESSION OF THE ONE 
                               HUNDRED SIXTH CONGRESS

            ------------------------------------------------------------

            [In earlier years the appointment or election of a President 
                pro tempore was held by the Senate to be for the 
                occasion only, so that more than one appears in several 
                sessions and in others none were chosen. Since Mar. 12, 
                1890, however, they have served until ``the Senate 
                otherwise ordered.'']
