From the Charlotte Observer.
Now that the Goth is over and
nothing special happening to engross
the attention of the public generally,
the railroad questions come to light
again, and conjecture is again rife as
to the Norfolk & Western and its
extended lines in this direction.
Capt. G. B. Smith, who is a Norfolk
& Western man, has been sent to
survey a line from Concord to
Wadesboro, also to Monroe, and
it is hoped that this means something
in regard to the route of the road.

0cracy's Choice.
Cleveland and Hill Talked of, but
a Majority Favor a West
ern Man.
Another Blaine Boom Started by
the Editorial of General
Clarks0n.

NEW YORK, March 3-The Herald
presents highly interesting tale show
ing what are at the present moment the
presidential preferences of the Democ-
racy in the various states. The table
has been carefully and accurately pre-
pared on the supposition that 900 dele
gates will be admitted to the Chicago
convention under the new apportion-
ment. 1t is supported by interviews
with well posted Democrats from each
one of the states and territories on
whose judgment the expressed proba-
bility as to how the respective delega-
lions will vote are based. The table
shows that Mr.. Hill leads Mr.. Cleveland
but very little at the present time, and
that the mass of the Democracy is look
ing to the West for man to lead them
to victory. The figures are: Hill 2S5,
Cleveland 265, western man $50. An
analysis Of the table reveals that Mr..
Cleveland seems to be the choice of fif-
teen states. They are, California, Con-
necticut, Delaware, Massachusetts,
Maine, Minnesota, New Hampshire,
Ohio, Rhode Island, South Dakota,
Vermont, Virginia, Washington, West
Virginia and Wisconsin. Twelve of
these states are Republican and only
three are Democratic.
Senator Hill is the choice of ten states.
They are Colorado, Florida, Idaho,
Maryland, Mississippi, New Jersey,
New York, Pennsylvania, South Caro-
lima and Texas. Seven are Democratic
and three Republican. This shows un-
mistakably that in the states where the
Democratic sentiment predominates
Hill is stronger thar. Cleveland. But the
real choice of the Democrats is shown
in sixteen states. They want Western
man, and are Arkansas, Georgia, Hi
nois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, kentucky,
Michigan, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska,
Nevada, North Carolina, North Dakota.
Tennessee and Wyoming. Eight are
Democratic and eight Republican,
their $50 delegates standing solid for
Western man, and representing over
one-third of the convention, against the
other two-thirds hopelessly divided, will
probably have great effect in shaping
the conventions action.
It will be noticed that three states
have been passed over. They are Ala
bama, Louisiana and Oregon. Their
delegations at present are, it is said,
likely to be divided between Hill and
Cleveland. With the sentiment so strong
for Western man, the possibilities
in that direction are worthy of note. 1t
is significant that the West has so far
Presented four candidates Governor
Boies of Iowa, General Palmer of Hi
nois, Governor Grey of Indiana, and
Don Dickinson of Michigan. The
strongest of these are Boies aud Palmer,
and of the two Boies seems to have the
lead. This is chiefly due to his free
silver affiliations. Palmer, on the other
hand, has openly declared against the
free coinage of silver, and the effect of
this will be to greatly neutralize his
chances. A favorite ticket in the West
would seem to be Boies, of Iowa, and
Russell. of Massachusetts,,
