THE DEMOCRATIC CHOICE.
The Weight of Preference Entirely
for samuel j. Tilden.

WASHINGTON, May 2S.-Even in th'
midst of oil The talk shout the Rspubli
can Convention there can he heard OIL
all sldes the declaration that Tilden mus
be the Democratic nominee A Telegram
in the Post of to-day purporting to come
from New York, s'a'ed that rllden hat
declared himself in favor of the nOmina
zion of Payne, but the dispatch seems tc
have been without foundation. Mr.
Springer, of Illinois, said to the New
Journal correspondent this evening tha
the editorial in The New York Sun upon
which the alleged dispatch was based
was a stab at Payne, ard that he did not
believe word in the whole article. He
had no doubt but Mr.. Tilden's health
was much better now than 1t was in 1876
He saw him on the 4th of last March
and his health was ss good then as in
1875, and from all he could learn it was
better now than then.
"Mr Tilden," continued Mr.. Springer,
stakes the best possible care of himself.
A doctor lives in his house, and every
mourhful he eats is under rule, prescrib.
ed by the doctor. He is man OF regu
lar habits, consequently there is not much
chance for an accident"
"WiIl he accept the nomination p
queried the reporter.
"Certainly be will, replied Mr. Spring.
er. mo man receiving nomination rs
he will at Chicago can decline Yes, sir,
be will accept and he elected, toe"
"Wili the Illinois delegation support
him in the Convention3"
"Yes, sir, solidly. No man can get the
Illinois delegation over him."
The only prominent Democ' at known
OF here who says he would not support
Tiden is Wade Hampton. Since 1875,
when Hampton was made Governor OF
his State and her electoral vote was
counted for Hayes, he and Tllden have
not been on speaking terms.
One Of the most sensible ideas preva-
lent among the Democratic Congress.
men just now Is disposition to defer to
The wishes and counsels Of the Democrats
of doubtful States Representative Mich
oils, Of Georgia, says: II would find out
the man whom the delegates from New
York. New Jersey and Connecticut want,
and / would take that man. These arc
the States that will elect the President,
and what we want 10 candidate who can
carry them."
The Democrats who vo'ed against the
Morrison bill all favor this policy OF
Welding to the wishes OF the doubtful
States, and some who v,,ed for that
measure take this view. There is q ques-
tion in many minds, however, as to the
advisahility OF nominating the whole Of
the old ticket Mr.. Blaine remarked to
Q friend Yesterday that he hoped Tilden
and Hendricks would be the opposition
ticket, but be was almost afraid the Dem.
ocrats would recogniz, the wisdom of
putting some such man as John Carlisle
IN the second place.
