ALAMEDA.

The committee appointed to take action
on the invitation of the San Francisco
Fourth of July celebration committee has
decided that Alameda would not Join with
either San Francisco or Oakland. Very
little interest was taken in the matter not
withstanding all of the notices and the call
for a general meeting published in the local
journals and small audience was present.
The delegation from Oakland was on hand
to use its powers of persuasion, but in fear
that they would outvote the citizens of
Alameda in mass-meeting, Chairman
Babcock suggested when the first motion
was put only bona fide residents of Ala
media should exercise the right of voting.
Colonel Babcock disposed of San Fran
cisco's invitation by reporting in behalf of
the committee that it was impossible to
stir up general movement likely to direct
Alamedans to one place or another and the
invitation would necessarily have to be de-
cEned.
Members of the Oakland committee en-
deavored to induce the Alameda COM
mittee to participate in the Oakland cele-
bration. a motion to accept Oakland
offer was lost, as was also a motion to call
| q meeting in the interest of a local celebra-
ton on account OF the shortnesS of time to
make necessary preparations.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-The bold.

election Of the House officers, but
it wasn't satisfied 10 merely name
the men who filled the named of
Offices of the House; it also insist
upon naming every subordinate
employed by them. Every day men
who we're never before seen by the
rev cI, TX, doorkeeper and sergeant
alarms Of the House present them
selves as their subordinates and arc
sworn in, after exhibiting the 0. K
Of The combine. That combine will
also control the makeup of the
House committees, and rs working
lard to get its grip Oh the Senate
committees, but that is more diff
emit as many Influential republican
senators are bitterly opposed to the
combine It Alison has another diff
cult Job on hand in it's efforts to
control the republican national
committee, which meets here to-
morrow to name the time and place
for holding the Republican Nation
al Convention. Although McKin-
Law and Reed are in a deal to pre-
vent HarriSons nomination, that
does not prevent Mckinley'S friends
coming here in force TO fight the
combine's attempt to control the

the ultimate object OF the Quay
