Douglas A. Hedin: The Puzzle of the Elections of 1892, 1898, 1904 and 1910. (2010).

The 1892 election was the first of four judicial elections where the start of the terms of the certain associate justices was delayed one year. Three associate justices, who were elected in November 1892, did not take office until January 1894; three justices elected in November 1898, did not take office until January 1900; three justices elected in November 1904, did not take office until January 1906; and two justices were elected in November 1910, to terms beginning January 1912.

This article suggests a solution to the puzzle of these four elections.
