The Situation Throughout the State.
An interview with leading politicians
gives the following summary of the
political situation throughout the State
Hon. p. e. Eastman, Of Mason, says
that he thinks the party is in good trim
and that the nominations made here TO-
morrow will be Of such a character az to
strengthen it. He is the partisan ol
certain candidates, but believes that any
one OF all the names mentioned will be
acceptable to the Democracy Of the State,
He thinks that the Greenback party in
his section is well organized, but has nC
idea it will carry the district. He is for
Faulkner.
Bon. I'd. eebar.
q prominent candidate for Congress in
the Third district, regards the Demo
cratic prospect as more encouraging
than it was a few months AGO. lie
thinks the Greenbackers are disintegra.
ting, and regards Hancock's nomina'
ton rs contributing to this result. lie
is for Jackson.
Col. Wagner,
OF Peasants, regards the Greenback
party as weak in his county,
but the workingmen have an effective
organization. He regards the triumph
OF the Democratic party as inevitable.
He Is Faulkner man.
Ex-speaker Eustacs Gibson
is an ardent Faulkner man, and
thinks he will win, but is satisfied
that the nominee OF the convention will
get the undivided support OF the Demo-
cratic party.
Capt. Hassler
says that Jackson county is solid for
Woods. and Jackson thinks they will
carry his county by majority OF 200.
lie regards Judge Brown as a valuable
accession to the party; thinks the
Greenback party has broken up on
Walkers candidacy, and that the Re
publicans will try to save their organizl.
ton by nominating straight ticket.
Col. Hogeman.
OF Kanawha, says the Kanswha delegs-
ton it solid for Jackson, except Griffith,
OF st. Albans, who is for Faulkner. He
regards Woods as the strongest candi.
date for Supreme Court; thinks that
Green is too erratic for a Supreme
Judge, and is certain thst Woods will
get good vote from Third district. Be-
lieves the party to be in good fighting
trim, and the ticket will be elected with
ease.
oCus Socl Es ctOihukr,
an ex State Senator from the WAYNE
district, and who viii be one OF the
members of the next Senate, is here
representing Boone, Of which county he
is resident. lie is an admirable speci'
men Of manhood, standing over six feet
in lis stockings, and weighing 30
pounds, well proportional and hand
some.
"What is the condition OF the partits
in Boone. Senator"
"The Democratic party is in good
trim, and its members are alive to their
duty. Boone will give her usual tine
majority for the Democratic ticket at
both the State and National elections. y
"Wiil Walker increase his strength"
"No: Walker will not set a, many
votes as he did two y,ars 40. There
ere some Republicans who will vote for
kenna, AMI the report that the Green
hackers are growing stronger in Boone
is mistake. We have the same labor
organization in Boone among the miners
at Peytouis that they have in Kanawha,
bu, il is like the organization in Mana
wha, getting weaker"
In reply to a question about the con
diiion OF the party in that Senatorial
district, with which Senator Stollings is
familiar, he said:
''Some OF the local dissensions which
existed two years ago, and which result
ell in the election OF some Greenback
members Of the legislature, have been
cured, and We will
Carry Every County in the District
by the usual majority. Kenna will be
elected by not less than six thousand
majority. lie will come very near car
rying kanawha county. ii he does no,
actually carry it, which Walker carried
by one thousand two years ago. The
fact Is, Walker is much weaker than he
vas two years ago and kenna stronger.
Either Jackson OF Faulkner will receive
the full Democratic vote OF the district,
Yes, French may get few Democratic
votes of relatives and friends in Mercer
and Mcdowell counties. but not
enough to do Sturgiss any good.

Hon. Z. w. Wilson.
OF Kama whs county, an ex. x.State Sena ator
and q wide-awake politician, he fully
affirmed Mr. Stolling's talk, and throws
little light upon the secret OF Walkers
strength two years ago. He says that
Greenbsckism or the labor reform party
is the sole cause, but that dissatisfaction
sometimes engendered in the manner Of
making nominations for local Offices has
had its influence. Walker has shrewdly
played upon these dissentients, and in
that way fomented strife in the Demo
cratic ranks.
But Now HIS Time Has Como.
His own party being made up largely

get office, are now ready to bolt from

fee there, and as there are from twenty
10 fifty candidates for each Office, the
corps of soreheads in the ranks Of Walk
