FOR HILL TO COME,
The BUCKLEYITES EXPECTING 4
VISIT FROM THE NEW YORK
SENATOR.
MCCARTHY's IDEA OF ORGANIzA
TON Is RIDICULED BY GAVIN
MCNAB.

President Mccarthy of the Occidental
Club stated last night that the coming of
David B. Hill to San Francisco within a
month or two was one of the probabilities
in sight. When asked if Senator Hills
visit would be in response to formal in
vitation Mr.. Mccarthy said: 81 am not
prepared to say"
His manner conveyed the impression
that Chris Buckleys camp was pulling
hard to have Hill come here, and that the
feeling of Buckley's minions was very IA
vorable to Hill as Presidential POSSIBLE
ity so far as they dared to go into Federal
politics.
Mr.. Mccarthy expressed his views on
the opposition OF Gavin McNab, John
Daggett and Internal Revenue Collector
Welburn freely. "The real opposition is
McNab, and his is all a pretension. AS
for Daggett and Welburn, they are each
trying to see how many delegates they can
have for the National Convention. They
are not in municipal politics at ALL" and
he added:
you can say for the Occidental Club
that we are still confident" though he did
not particularize just what specific
thing the followers of Buckley were conf
dent of.
The Buckleyites are organizing, accord
ing 20 President Mccarthy, but he was
