CHICAGO. March %. - An interesting
special from San Francisco. says Pres
ident c. n. Eliot of Harvard University,
yesterday, declared that he would not
vote for Hill, in case he is nominated for
the presidency on the Democratic ticket.
Hill, if nominated will not get my vote,
and he will not get the votes of very many
others of my belief.
'In New York and New England
enough Democratic votes would be lost by
the nomination of Hill to defeat the
party at the polls.
"hill would certainly be beaten. The
exact strength of the Mugwump in New
England is not estimated, but it is suf-
ficient to turn the tide. | believe that if
Hill were nominated the votes of these
men who believe in clean politics would
defeat him. In Massachusetts Gov. Rus
sell was elected bv our votes"

cept a few who would stoop 20 almost
anything in political issue, were heard
yesterday on our streets, that the Hepub-
lican party OF Johnston bad put an ''em-
barge net" on all the halls In Olneyville,
thereby shutting the Democrats out fronl
the privilege of holding n meeting OF any
character This rumor is first. last and
forever n downright falsehood. for no
such steps were ever taken. AS in ne
cent case, this was circulated TO poison
the minds OF honest people against an
honest campaign.
The work OF a few OF the wire-pullers OF
the Democratic party of Johnston would
be disgrace TO any party. The upright
course, without resorting TO any low,
mean tactics. thereby souring the minds
OF men against their opponents, "A
straightforward campaign, which means
the best, the truest interests OF
the towns-people, will be the motto OF
the Republicans of Johnston, and they go
into this election better prepared TO make
noblo fight and come out with victory
perched on their banners.
There has been no attempt TO monopo-
lize the halls in Olneyvilie.

A Lie Nailed.

try by the correspondents of the Demo
cratic papers that it was impossible for
the Democrats To hire large hall in this
city in which to hold their rallies because
the Republicans had secured them for
every night untsl April is a big Demo
cratic fake and the fresh young men who
circulated this story will take back water
to-day.
Charles " Brown. chairman of the Re
publican city committee, told a NEWS
man last evening that the opera house
would be offered to the Democrats as soon
as the dates were fixed for the Republican
rallies
Harris Hall was let to the Prohibitionists
several weeks ago, and the Republicans
have secured it for one night, and the
Democrats for another evening with the
privilege of other dates. The story that
IL would not be let for political rallies
arose from "A Misunderstanding.

evening in Hope hall was attended by 400
Democrats, completely filling the hall and
was addressed by James Murray who pre-
sided. James j. Nolan, John J. Christie
of Bristol; DIR. L. +. G. Garvin, Z. H
Quinn, DIR. j. III. Bourbon. The remarks
were chiefly in WardwelPs defence in

the alleged action of the Republicans in
hiring the halls to prevent the Democrats
from holding rallies also endorsing the

Political Points.

Down in South Kingstown the Demo
Gratis at their caucus held for the nomina-
tion of candidates for the General Assem-
bly, could scarcely get enough men to-
gether To make up a corporal's guard,
while the Republicans were out IN full
force and had one of the best and most
enthusiastic meetings in the history OF
the local party. The Democrats need not
fear that they will not have foes worthy
of their steel I'm that town on election day.
Laughable is the effort which is being
made in North Providence TO create a
breach in the Republican party. 1t is a
little scheme which Albert J.. Andrews,
an old-time Democrat, has been engineer
-iHg=fef three or four weeks. He has
secured the help of q few sore-headed men
OF both parties, whose principal grievance
Is that they have never been able To get
nominations for Office. That is exactly
what is the matter with Mr.. Saacke. He
wanted the Republicans to nominate him
for representative a year ago, just as he
has sought for political preferment ever
since he came into the town. The party
managers couldn't see il in that light-hence
Mr.. Saaclxe IS found back of an indepen-
dent ticket which is being run by dyed
