this neighborhood, but it is sure. Rosa
Burke, who keeps boarding house in
the old Carville place for metropolitan
iaborers, was assaulted by number of

was scratched and she received sever al
severe bruises.
Four boys were subsequently arrested
and brought into court. They proved to
be innocent and were allowed to go.
One of the boys whom Mrs. Burke de-
tanned gave a fictitious name. This
caused the wrong boys to be taken.

Party Leaders Jump
High in the Air
In Clinton.
EVERYBODY READS THE SPY.
Counter Deals Not Espec-
tally Popular With
Honest Ones.

Clinton. Sept. 26,-The Spys story
about the proposed deal between War
rem Goodale and Senator w. A. Har-
r4ngton made some of the politicians
around here jump three or four feet
into the air. OF course the story is
vigorously denied by persons who do
and who do not know.
Ora L. Stone, right hand man to
Charles G. Bancroft, puts it this way:
There isn't any deal; that's nonsense.
Perhaps Senator Harringtons sympa-
thies are with us in this part of the
county"
Wellington E. Parkhurst, the genial
editor Of a Clinton newspaper, says
that he has been informed that the
story that there is any shadow of a
deal in the canvass of Warren Goodale
as respects Congressman Weymouth
and Senator Harrington, have no foun-
dation in fact.
Nobody knows how Mr.. Parkhurst
knows that this IS so. But he certainly
he would be on the warpath. Mr..
Parkhurst has long had his own eye
on the senatorial nomination, and he's
going to get it, if he can, in 1900 un-
less all stories are false.
It must not be understood that peo-
pie of Clinton do not want Mr.. Goodale
to be county commissioner. They wish
him to have the place and will do all
they can for him. The deal they do
not want. 1t is a simple problem in
values.
Themetropolitan matter makes a sem
ator a necessary appenage of the town.
A senator would be worth more to local
interests than county commissioner.
1t will be interesting to see if the
deal can be put through now that the
cat is out of the bag.
AS for Congressman Weymouth, he's
simply got to be with Clinton. If the
Clinton delegation should abandon him
he would certainly be wiped out when
The sphere OF the congress-
man does not, in this particu-
lar matter, extend beyond Fitchburg.
Republican caucus was we'll adyer-
tised before it was held. In the news
papers appeared f1aring invitations to
vote for Guild With the invitation his
record in politics was given, a good,
clean record. And at the end the re-
quest was made: IF you believe in
this kind of citizenship, support it at
the caucus.
Also on the eve of the caucus S. Ives
Wallace, candidate for representative,
made a statement. He denied plainly
and straight from the shoulder that he
had been playing double" in the
Guild-Bates canvass. Mr.. Wallace
says that while he preferred Bates, he
remained neutral. He denies that he
signed an endorsement for either Bates
or Guild. Mr.. Wallace also expresses
his absolute willir gness to leave his
candidacy in the hands of the people.
They will have determined before the
readers of The Spy see this statement.
