RETURNS FROM THE COUNTY,

The returns from the county were
not complete at the time of going to
press, but, with the exception of one
or two offices, the returns are suffi-
c1ently complete as to settle who has
has been elected. The vote thorough
out the county was not as heavy as
was expected. If there was the same
falling off proportionately in other
precincts as was the case in Oroville a
very considerable number of voters
rallied to go to the polls. There were
some surprises in store for candidates,
as well as for the public as the re-
turns commenced coming in Mclean
for sheriff on the democratic ticket,
and Egbert for assessor, on the re-
publican ticket are badly defeated. No
surprise is felt in the case of Egbert,
as he was seeking office under false
pretenses when he ran on the repub-
l1can ticket and openly boasting that
he was supporting Wilson for presi-
dent If he could not support the re-
publican candidate for president it
would have been the manly thing for
him to have done to refuse to permit
MS name to appear on republican
ballot. Gamble is having the fight of
his life. Heretofore, with very fire.
quent heretofores, Mr.. Gamble has dis
tanced all competitors for office in this
county. His nomination for any office
has always been equivalent to election.
1t is different this year. If he pulls
through at all it will be by the skin of
his teeth. good man is Gamble,
whom we have known for time be-
yond memory, and an efficient man in
any position he attempts to fill, but
people eventually buck at perpetuation
IN office. Warren is shooting ahead
like whlrlwind in the race for COM
missioner from the third district, and
in the end will have the largest ma
jority of any candidate elected on the
several tickets. While the socialist
vote was heavy in some precincts it
was disappointing in the main to the
followers of that ism, and cuts no
great figure in the totals. Up to the
last reports on governor, Hay was
leading Lister by over 300, and will
probably carry the county by a plu-
rality of some 400, or better. The vote
as reported Thursday afternoon was
Hay 965, Lister 636. The following is
the total vote so far as received up to
Thursday afternoon on county offices,

not having been obtained:

Prof. Granville, who is a thorough

has succeeded in organizing the best
orchestra that was ever gotten togeth-

If there is better one in north central

members is a competent performer,
they have practiced and drilled under
the exacting tutorage of the leader,
and a more pleasing brand of music
for dance purposes could not be de-
sired. The Oroville orchestra is a
fixture and feature of the town, and
as its excellency becomes generally
known there is no doubt that it's SER

out the surrounding country.

The Birds in September

Not only are we between seasons, but
our country is between country Tor
many of the birds. There were Few
weeks in May when our thiekets and
hedges were delicious with the love calls
of hosts of dainty warbers. Out of the
southland they came, clean coated, bright
feathered, clear voiced, merry and active
as they could be. Then most of them left
us and vunt on to their summer camps
in the Adirondacks and the wilds of Can
ada. Now they are with us once more,
on their way to their winter homes i'll the
southland-often indeed in Venezuela,
Brazil, or even in the parnpas back of
Buenos Ayres.
but what change has come over
them, The bright clothes are nworn out
or east aside, the CHEEKY melodies are ap-
parently forgotten, the pursuits and fiirt-
nigs are all over, and quiet and Sc
date band of travellers they have become.
"The passage of these more extensive
voyagers seems to set our own summer
sojourners to longing for their winter
homes, and one by one they will drop
away. The martins, that are scattered
in little colonies all over the countryside,
will join in great flocks and make the
excursion together. About the same time
the Baltiomre oriole will leave her pen
dant cradle and take her now grown child
ren with her. The humming birds with
their glittering crests will drop out, a
few at a time, and cross the gulf to join
their tropical cousins.
Meanwhile some of our permanent
birds are beginning to get ready for Win
ter by changing their summer clothes.
In the spring-time every one so well
knows and olyes one of our dainties little
birds that he has received more names
perhaps than any other of our feathered
friends. We call him the thistle finch,
the goldfnch, the salad bird, the wild
canary, or the yellow-bird as best suits
our individual fancy. Bright as he was
in his courting suit, he now puts away
his canary coat, and for the winter is
quite content to dress like his quiet wife
and his sparrow cousins. So it is that
few realize that this merry bird, with
his toboggan-slide flight, is with US all
the year round.
