Judge Twiggs, of Georgia, ex-Speaker
OF the Georgia House, was met by Mail
and Express reporter this morning. When
asked relative to the political situation
in his State, Judge Twiggs said: ssSince
our recent Gubernatorial election politi-
cal matters have been discussed but little.
Still there is steadily growing belief
that the Democracy are bound to be sue
cessful in 1884"
"Will all the Southern States give anna
jority for the candidate of that party?''
''MOst of them will. l feel certain that
Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana and South
Carolina will cast a solid Democratic
majority, and it is thought that North
Carolina will fellow their lead. Virginia.
too, is beginning to stir herself and the
chances are that she will 60 Democratic" :"
''WhO is the tavOrite candidate in your
State?'
"Mr. Tilden, by long odds, but he can
not be induced to accept a nomination.
He would get a hearty support in Georgia
and the South generally. After him, Mr.
Mcdonald, of Indiana, is perhaps the
greatest favorite with the Southern peo-
pie"
"How does Georgia stand on the tariff
question:"
''Public sentiment there, as throughout
the Southern States, is greatly divided on
the tariff. A majority, however, want a
| tariff for revenue with incidental protec-
ton; tariff which will raise sufficient
revenue to pay the expenses of the gov
ernment. But, however greatly the South
may be divided on the question, our ac-
| tion is opposed to direct taxation"

Senator Harris, of Tennessee, has been
interviewed. He thinks that at the pre-
sent time ex-senator Mcdonald, of In
diana. is a formidable candidate for the
Democratic nomination to the Presi-
dency-so formidable that were the con-
vention to be held Immediately he has no
doubt Mcdonald would receive the nOmi-
nation. He thinks that Mcdonald would
certainly make a very strong candidate.
He said there might much be said about
Gen. Butler as the Democratic candidate,
but if there was. he had not heard of it.
On the Republican side, he thinks that
President Arthur's prospects for the
nomination had recently frightened, but
if the Republicans could carry Ohio this
fall he thought Senator Sherman would
have a greater prominence as a Presi-
Dental candidate than he has yet secured.
He says the tariff question can hardly fail
TO be one of the prominent issues in the
Presidential campaign.
