Feb. 8.--1 f there, has been nt any time doubt1 that Mr. R. N.

Mr. Hack ett'a candidacy was asserted as a piece f Sunday gossip two weeks ago iln Toe Observer. Later a rormai an , riouncement of his- aspiration was made In The Evening Post of this city. , Later still the Winston corres pondent of The Observer wrote that paper that The Observer's etory was unauthorised. It being; practically the i same as The Post's, both reporters hav itisr talked with Mr. Hackett. In order ' that all of the reporters may come out . ' with the shining- light of truth In their " Interviews, a portion of Hr. Hackett'i - letter will be reproduced. It does not In the least reflect upon the Winston . correspondent's accuracy, as that rep j resentatlve's story did upon Salls '. , , bury's. Mr. Hackett, after .declaring ' it: bis purpose and the wish of his "f friends to allow his home papers to - ;make the Initial and official announce v.ment, says he knows The Observer man had not been asked to hold un , the story and he knew not that he .'would be quoted aa he admits he was ' , don$ correctly. Then he says: "When I 'was 1 Winston a few days after- ward.
