In review of the status of the campaign, Charles
D. Hilles chairman Of the Republican National Com
mittee says: I'VE feel that President Taft and his
administration Republican party and its principles
and the Chicago convention and its platform are thor
oughly capable of withstandng honest criticism We
are concentrating all our energies to pointing what
we believe to be the basic and economic weaknesses of
the principles of the Democratic and Progressive
parties. We know that the opposing managers will
retaliate and we will welcome their retaliation long
as it is confined TO legitimate criticism If such rule
is faithfully lived up to by the three parties the public
will be able to weigh opposing arguments and TO cast
a conscientious and matured vote. The Republican
party will result decided upon such basis
There are many voters in Delaware who cheerfuly

VET REPUBLICAN TELLS
OF DEMOCRATIC TRICKS
To the Editor Of THE EVENING
TOTTpNAT.

To the Editor OF THE EVENING
JOURNAL:
Among the many things that ! re-
member of the Democratic misrule OF
the past is the method of securing
control of the City Council when that
body would have a Republican
majority. The Democrats determined
to control it would have the Legis-
lature change the boundaries This
was done with the Sixth, and Fourth
wards.
Aonther trick worked by that party
was the changing Of the dividing line
of the two districts thereby enabling
them TO have control Of the city tax
collections.
Then again recall the good
times under Grover Cleveland and tho
habit Of the Democratic spell binders
talking free trade in one section of the
city and the reverse in another sec
tion and then We all remember the
Wilson German bill. That was so OBJ
noxious that even Cleveland kicked.
Your respectfully,

NEW NEWS OF YESTERDAY
The Chief Reason That Led
to HarriSOn'S Nom
inatiOn in 1883
By Holland.

There has always been a good
deal of curiosity, especially among
men who have taken an active part
in politics, about the reasoning which
led the New York delegation to the
Republican national convention OF
1885 to agree upon General Benjamin
Harrison as the candidate for the
presidential nomination whom the
New York state delegation could cor
daily support" said Chauncey N.
Depew to me at time when he was
discussion presidential politics With
which he had personal familiarity
you. of course, remember that
the New York state convention re-
quested the delegation to the nation
al convention 90 vote as a unit for
my nomination for the presidency.
careful canvass just before the con-
vention was organized showed that |
had something over one hundred dele
gates in the convention. For reasons
not necessary now. TO explain my
name was Withdrawn from the con
sideration of the convention, but it
was the understanding that many OF
the delegates would support any cam
didate whom our New York state dele
cation would recommend
ION the Sunday night preceding the
nomination of General Harrison for
president a conference was held In
the hotel room of stephen B. Elkins.
OF West Virginia, who was afterwards
! member of President Harrisons
cabinet In addition to Mr.. bllNns
] and myself, Senator Thomas G. PlatL
DR. William Carroll Michael Breslin
and one or two others of the New
York delegation were present.
we were then informed that the
Irish-American citizens. so many OF
whom had supported Mr.. Blaine's can
didacy in 1885, would regard with
great favor the nomination OF Gener.
Al BENJAMIN Harrison We learned
that in many of the states organiza-
tions of Irish-Americau citizens would
gladly support any presidentisl can
didate who, like Mr.. Blaine. had
shown himself 10 be a true friend oi
ireland The lrish-American organ
ization in Pennsylvania, Ohio, ln'
diana and Illinois we're very strong
"Of course, the testimony of men
like DR.. Carroll and Michael Breslin
was we'll worth needing, and so II
was that at this Sunday conference
Senator Platt and I became satisfied
that if Benjamin Harrison we're nom
mated for president he would obtair
the cordial support of the Irsh-Ameri
can organization. Furthermore We
were satisfied that these organiza
tions would not support Senator Wi
liam B. Allison Of Iowa or Goyerno
Russell A. Alger of Michigan.
There were other reasons. o
course, for regarding with favor tn
proposed nomination of General Har
rison But the chief reason why W
caused it to be known TO the friend
Of General Harrison that New lor
state would gladly support his nomiu
alton was our belief that Harrison,
nominated, would secure the bulk 9
the Irish-American vote,
when the fact became known ths
New York would support Harriso
there was no longer any doubt that b
would receise the majority of all tb
votes, at least after the first con
plimentary ballot was taken. An
