sAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 16 1t is stated
that Dan Burns, secretary of the Repub.
lican etate central CO m mittee, has broken
down and is seriously i'll in this city.
Hard work and worry over the late cam
paign, together with excessive smoking,
are said to be the causes of his illness.
THE PROPOSED RECOUNT.
Although the Repu blican state central
committee has as yet taken no formal
action. Republicans are considering
among themselves the practicability of
contesting the election of Budd for gov
ernor. 1t has been stated that if the
Republicans contest the vote in San
Francisco county, as they have threat
ened. the Democrats will bring contest
in overy county in the state, and it will
be months before the question can be
settled. In the meantime Budd would
act as governor.
In reply to this the Republicans say
that ii the election is contested all over
the state the recount will be made SIM
ultaneously by the courts Of the various
counties, and that the recount will be
the work Of but few weeks at the
most.
UNEASY oFFICE-HoLDERs.
An interesting complication has arisen
over the San Francisco harbor commis-
sion that is worrying politicians. Gov.
ernor Markham appointed f. S. Chad
bourne as harbor commissioner, but the
appointment has never been confirmed
by the legislature. The question that
arises is, will Governor Markham have
chance to send Chadbourne's name to
the new Legislature when it convenes, or
will Governor Budd appoint Democrat
in place of Chadbourne? Budd will have
an opportunity to appoint another COM
missioner, as Commissioner Bassett's
term will soon expire. The board con-
sists OF three members, all Republicans
at present. II Budd has the appoint.
ment OF two Democrats that will change
the complexion Of the board and the
several hundred office holders under the
present board are having visions OF be-
ing turned out to make room for faith
iul Democrats.
