He Thinks Cleveland's Chances Are
Improving Daily.
COLUMBIA, s. c., Nov 4-Gov. Tillman
to-day consented to a short interview on
politics. In regard to the prospects of the
national democracy he said that he thought
Mr.. Cleveland chances were growing
brighter every day. In his opinion he
would be elected.
He said that the third party appeared to
have good hold on the western states
When asked about the alliance in this state
he said:
81 don't think that the alliance is going to
vote the third party ticket. l believe that
the alliancemen are going to stand by the
pledges taken at the primary exceDt
in those counties where they have
never known what negro domination is.
Those alliancemen in North Carolina aud
other places VINO have never known what
negro domination is, are ready to bolt the
party, but don't believe that any consider
able number will do it any way.
THE strength of the third party in this
state depends on how far men can persuade
themselves that they are not bound by their
oaths taken in the democratic primary. |
don't believe that they will get 5000 votes
in the state"
