GOVERNOR HILL IN BROOKLYN.
TRYING HARD TO STIR UP KINGS COUNTY DEMO


In sharp contrast with the Republican meeting in
the BROOKLYN Academy of Music on Tuesday night
was the David y. lin meeting last evening. The
bursting Of bombs and rockets outside the building
served to draw the customary crowd and the orders
from Headquarters to have all wards well represented
served to fill the building but the audience was the
direct opposite Of that which listened to Mr. Fassett
and Warner Miller the previous evening. some cheap
flags had been distributed among the audience, and they
were wildly waved welcome to Governor Hill
when he entered. accompanied by George Ralne',
Thomas Z. Pearsall. Felix Campbell J. G. Hendrix,
George w. Brewer, James W. Ridgway, W. j. CoombS.
Dr. John Griffin, Almet +. jerks, Patrck Campbell,
John Demar, Thomas F. NevnS and James Shevlin.
