Mr. NJ. A. Cogbil. clerk Of the County
Court of Chesterfield ana a prominent ALI
ance man. was in the city yesterday. The
Chesterfield delegates 10 the State Con-

Dir. Cogbil says from what he can learn
the sentiment of the people in the county
is very generally for Cleveland. II he
was thought to be entirely available
he is the almost unanimous choice of
the people. Other accounts unite IN saving
that Cleveland is the choice of the county
and that Hill is not considered in the race.
The impression is that but for Hills fight on
Cleveland the latter would have been renomi-
mated by reclamation as he was in 1883.
