ST. CLOUD, March 2S.-The Democrats
of old Stearns have a way of standing
by their party tickets that might well
be emuated by other counties. The re-
suit of a canvass of the people of the
county shows that while there is a
strong preference for eX-PreSident
Cleveland GOV. BCies, of Iowa, las
many friends. Interviews from st.
Cloud and the eastern end OF the county
follow:
DIT. Calhoun, Dem.-I think neither
Hill nor Cleveland is available, and
there are thousands who would vote for
neither Palmer nor BOieS. For vice
president, either Russell or Boies.
c. i. Macdonald member Democratic
state central cOmmittee)-The strongest
candidate for the Democrats to nomi-
nate for president is Cleveland by all
odds. For vice president | believe
Gov Gray, of indiana, to be the
strongest.
George n. Stewart, Rep Cleveland
is the strongest. but if nominated he
must expect to be elected without New
York. Either Boies or Russell would
make strong candidates for second
place.
NJ. d. Taylor member Republican
state central commlttee)-I should name
none of those you mention; the most
available man is German; l have no
choice for vice president.
George II. Reynolds, Rep.-Person-
ally l would like to see Hill nominated.
because he would be the easiest man
for the Republicans to beat. Cleveland
is unQuestionably the strongest. Boies
is my first choice for vice president.
Judge l.. A. Evans, Dem.-Cleveland,
If the matter in New York can be fixed.
Boies would be an A No. man to NOM
mate for vice president.
A. i. Cram5, Dem.-Cleyelandi is the
strongest, and next to him John q.
Carlisle, of Kentucky. My choice for
vice president would be BOieS.
j. =. Wilson, Dem.-The way | now
feel l would say Boies. For vice presi-
ident, Russell.
G. S. Benson, Chairman Sixth Dis
frict Republican COmmittee-The ques-
ton is one for a statesman to answer.
With the trouble in New York it looks
like Boies. He is good man.
MI Westman, Rep.-If that Hill fight
was not on i'll New York | should say
Cleveland was the strongest man for
the Democrats to nominate, but as it is,
! believe Tammany would cut his throat.
l should select BOis. He is the
ablest man [ know. L knew
him we'll in Waterloo, To-
ton and people do not know his
strength. Russell would be a good
nominee for vice president.
EalnIpOdpr (cbairmor of tho
Democratic county cOmmittee(-Cleve-
land is my first choice. Boies for sec
Ond place.
David Cleveland, An.-Cleveland is
the strongest, and l should name Boies
for vice president. They may lose New
York, but that is better than to be
whipped in certain Northern states.
B. Mueller. Dem.-Cleveland is the
strongest under all circumstances. Gov.
Gray for vice president. Cleveland is
strong with the people, and there will
be such q pressure brought to bear on
the delegates that they will be unable
% refuse to give him the nomination.
We will carry New York, too, despite
Tammany That was illustrated in 1876.
Ell Atwood, secretary StearnS county
Alliance-Cleyeland is the strongest
man. Hill would meet certain defeat if
i

Theodore Bruener, Dem.-Cleveland
without doubt. The Hill boom will
be gone before the convention meets.
Boies for vice president.

T Graves.
NJ. j. Nugent. DEM Cleveland and
BOies every time. That's the ticket.

nOt carry the West, and Cleveland can
iot carry New York. That is the way

lut doubt. For vice president give us
Boies.
F. E. Searle, Rep.-If l were Demo-
Tat, should say Cleveland and BOies
ought to be the ticket.

likely. Don't know as to vice presi-
