bert w. Eaton and Joseph E. Eaton were in
The stable Office of the latter, at Calais. Her
bert drew a revolver, and, without warning.
fired at the two, wounding both dangerously.

lately after the tragedy Herbert left town, it
is supposed for his summer residence, seven
miles down the river. He was met on the
road thiiher about nine o'clock that night.
The two Eatons are brothers and all well
known citizens.
LArER-The shooting affair which occurred
last night continues to agitate the public
mind. Herbert Eaton, the perpetrator, es-
capped to house owned by him at BARRIERS
beach. seven miles below the city, where he
threatens to resist arrest. The house is
guarded to prevent his escape. His brother
Joseph is considered out Of danger, but his
other victim, Samuel Kelly, Jr.. lies in
critical condition, with little hopes of his
recovery. II is understood that Herberr's
friends will endeavor to persuade him to
come to this city and give himself up tomor-
row. No motive for the deed has yet de-
velopel itself.

The dasiardly attack upon Lady
Florence Dixie has called out general in
dignant co nment against the methods OF
violence in vogue in Ireland and England
Although she avows her belief that the
assailants were not Irishmen, the opinion
prevails that her charges against the Land
League are the cause of her attempted
assassination. Some of the Irish leaders
assert that she was not assaulted and her
statement false, but this is regarded as
only ruse to escape the stigma and dam
aging effects of the cowardly assault upon
them and the Land League.

Rhode Island Politics.

Election in Rhode Island takes place on
The first Wednesday in April. Usually
there is not much excitement over the
election of State officers in Little Rhody,"
but it is not 30 this year-the political pot
Is now boiling briskly. The republicans
have nominated Mr.. Bou-n as a candidate
tor Governor, who is in the South at pres
ent and will have no hand in the contest.
In opposition to Mr.. Bourn appears ex-
Gov. Sprague, as the candidate of the in
dependent republicans and regular demo-
Gratis. he having been nominated at the
State conventions of both those parties.
Stranger things may have appeared in
politics than the nomination ofMr. Sprague
for Governor of Rhode Island, at this time.
but this is so strange as to confound sober
minded citizens. 1t is generally consid-
cred good rule to enlrust public affairs
to the conduct of men who manage their
private affairs we'll, and to Withhold such
power and responsibility from those who
have demonstrated their incapacity to take
care of their own business. Mr. Sprague
is chiefly known as having inherited fine
property from his father, which has passed
out of his hands within a few years, with
endless litigation and loss and embar-
rassment to everybody connected with
his affairs except the lawyers. If mis-
fortune had caused the ruin of Mr..
Sprague, there would be good reason
for overlooking hi. downfall but the pub
lie opinion is that his financial failure and
troubles are due to himself. Judged by
his history as it is generally understood.
he is one Of the last men that should he
taken up as candidate FIR high and
responsible office, supposed to represent
the dignity and honor of II State.
Il is the nomination of Mr.. SErague
which creates special interest inside and
outside of Rhode Island in the coming
election in that State. Independents and
democrats have united in his support
General Butler Is lending him encourage
ment and assistance. The contest will be
brief but sharp. The best elements in
Rhode Island will oppose Mr.. Sprague.
but unless they do so in more effective
manner than Butler was opposed in Massa-
chusetts they may be As much mortified
at the result rs their brethren over the
border were when doughty Ben was elect
ed in the adj ,cent commonwealth
Knowing something about Mr.. Sprague's
business management and aff,irs in the
State OF Name. we are of the opinion that
the people of Rhode Tsa I'd will be more
respected abroad and prospered ut home
II they leave him in retirement awhile
longer at least.
