The people are much divided between

Com:
c. NJ. Stedman.
\ NJ WADDELL of Wilmington.
Stedman will receive their support.
think there is no opposition to him here.
W H BERNARD, editor Wilmington Star
Our people favor Lieut.. Gov. Charles
NJ Stedman as the Democratic nominee
for Governor.
JNo. D. BELLAMY, of Wilmington:
Our people and section are very anxious
to see our able progressive, and chivalrous
citizen, Lieut.. Gov. Stedman, the nex'
Governor. We feel if he is nominated We
will be sure of success as Stedman always
throws force into anything he undertakes
and infuses with enthusiasm by his grea
personal magnetism. He is worker an6
besides possesses ability as a canyasse
superior, we all think, to any of thos'
mentioned for the nomination. We ar,
unanimously enthusiastic for Stedman'
nomination.

W. J. MADDRY, of Seaboard:
T j. Jarvis or Walter Clark.
THOs. ". MASON, of fGarysburg, Chm Dem
EX Com:
ANY good Democrat that can carry mos
strength.
GEO. p. BURGwYN, of jackson:
There is much difference of opinion.
, should say that first the county would b
, for +. B. PEBBLES for any office he nigh
desire. Judge Clark has, l think, by ia
the most support among the country peo
Pile. Gov. Stedman has strong, earnes
, friends Col. Holt also has good support
With Capt PEBBLES out, Clark would b
first, Stedman second, and Holt third.
JAS A RAMSEY, editor Seaboard Reflec
tor:
Capt R. B. PEBBLES is the choice of ou
county, but of course we don't expect h
will be nominated. ExGov. Jarvis is b
far the strongest man in this section.
ONSLOW.
REPREsE SENTATIVE II. E. KING, of Peanut:
We are divided. The farmers want a
e exander. Others want Stedman.
j. G. THOMPSON. of Ric chlands:
= Undecided. Stedman, Clark and Ale1
ander, are spoken of, possibly in the orde
n named. Everybody deems Jarvis safe
than any other, but nobody wants him
e displace Ransom.
A. G. HIGGINS, of Jacksonville, Chm Del
Ex. Com:
n Gilmer has many warm, personal friends
especially is this SO among his old con
rades in arms, and with the communit
generally he is popular. He would be
y dangerous competitor. | think, though
u most of our people would like to see a
:, Eastern man Governor Our section til
II Southeast and Cape Fearl has not had
man in the gubernatorIal chair since tt
days of Gov. Dudley, and SO good man
!. are thinking we are entitled to it. Stedma
has good many friends, and some
a them influential, and the outlook is tn
n he will get good many votes for Il
20 nomination.
