BUTTE.

CHICO. CAL, Nov. Sold Butte will
sustain the record of the Republican party
and will roll up good majority for Nc
Kinley. This is sore disappointment to
the Democrats, for it was estimated that
the Populists would, in com mbining with
the Democrats. snow under the Republic
cans completely. Chico has gone solidly
Republican, tn vote for Johnson and De
Vries being scratch, Johnson receiving
437 and De Vries 438.
StaLseli (R.), for the Assembly. de-
ieated Thresher (D.) by 500 votes. Gray
(D.) by over 1000. The Democrats will un-
doubtedly elect one Supervisor. This
county will give De Vries small majority
over Johnson.
The main fight in the county was for
Congressman, Assem- blyman and Superior
Judge.
The candidates for Assembly and Judge
on the Repu blican ticket had a walkover
and carried the field by an unexpected ma
iority. The mountain precincts not yet
heard from will be in favor of the Repub-
licans and increase their vote still more.
The Republicans are iubilant, while the
Democrats have very little to say, but look
a ood deal paler than their would-be sii-

ROUTINE WORK IN HOUSE

WASHINGTON, D. c., December 10 -
The announcement by Secretary Oiney
of his opposition to tho Cuban recogni-
tion resolution is accepted as the action
OF President Cleveland. 1t is coDsid-
cred probable that when Captain Lam
berton and DIR. O'Reilly made specisi
trip to Georgetown, s. c., yesterday,
they took possession of the wire and
conveyed to Olney the presidents ap-
proval OF his announcement. IL Is
regarded by many senators as step In
advance in American diplomatic his
tory for a president thus to assert that
he, and not congress, is the judge OF
when executive action should be taken,
in the matter of the recognition OF a
new government.
WASHINGTON, D. c., December 10 -
Secretary of State Olney, in an author
ized interview with the United Associ-
ated Presses, deprecates the adoption
OF the Cameron resolution. and warns
congress that the recognition OF Cuba
is purely an executive matter, which
resolution cannot compel.
WASHINGTON, D. c., December 19.-
Discussing the statement by Secretary
Olney, Senator Frye said that If the
resolution passes by a two-thirds vote
over presidential veto, it becomes
law and the executive would be COM
PEELED to execute it. Said Senator
Chandler: sit is the most unprece-
dented statement J. ever heard from q
cabinet officer. No criticism of such
conduct can be too severe. 1t is
evidently inspired and comes direct
from the president. Thank God, we
will not have him in the executive
mansion after March 4.h."

AUTHORSHIP KNOWN.
The Composer Of Verse That Adorns Royal
Monument.

LONDON, England. December 49,
Speculation as to the author Of the
verse on the red granite monolith
erected by Queen Victoria in Balloch-
buie Forest, near Balmoral castle, as q
memorial to her son-in-law, the late
Prince Henry Of Battenberg, has at
last been set at rest. The lines have
been variously attributed to the queen,
the Princess Beatrice, widow Of the
late Prince Henry, and to Mr.. Glad
stone, but it IL now announced that
they are from the pen OF the Marquis
OF Lorne, husband OF the Princess
Louise, and ex-governor general of
Canada. Their only merit seems to
rest In the fact that they adorn a royal
monument. Thus runs the verse:
"Brief life ! In sport and war SO keen,
Mourned by these winds In heath and fir,
AS we're the falling breakers stir
The palms that crown tby'closing scene"
