Tunnel precinct is situated. Senator
Vance asserted in the Senate that last year
Butte gave Republican majority Of 500,
and that its Democratic majority of 257

people against the Republican claim Of
fraud at the Tunnel precinct. The cold
facts In the case are these: The Demo.
cratic majority in Butte last year was 385,
with total vote of zoos. This year the
Democratic majority is 257, with total
vote Of 2, 800. With an increased vote of
exactly 500, the Democratic majority fell
off 10S. To have held their own even,
the Democratic ma'o.ity should have been
457, but II is exactly 200, or neatly AS per

Mason g Ramlln Organs and Pianos.
The improved method of fastening the
strings of pianos, invented by the Mason
& Hamlin Organ and Piano Company in
the year 1882, is unqucstionaby Que of
the most important improvements ever
made, making the instrument more richly
musical in its tones, as well as more dur
able, and much less liable TO get out OF
tune.
Both the Mason s. Hamlin organs and
pianos excel chiefly 10 that which is the
chief excellence in any musical instru-
ment, quality of tone Other things,
though important, are much less so than
this. An instrument with unmusica tones
cannot be a good musical instrument. H.
Illustrated catalogues, containing descrp-
tions of new and popular styles of organs
and pianos, introduced this season, will
be sent free to any one addressing the
company. Boston, New York or Chicago.
