Think Stevenson Will Carry
Illinois.

Hudson county's delegates to the Ma
tional Convention held at Chicago have
all returned. All seem highly elated
ever the selection of Grover Cleveland as
the candidate to lead the Democratic
forces in the coming fight.
Ex-Justice Robert Davis, who has al
ways been a firm supporter of Mr.. Cleve.
land, got home late Saturday night.
In reply to questions relative to the pros.
poets of the Democratic candidates.
he said this morning:-m never saw sc
much enthusiasm at convention. The
people and delegates were unit fol-
Cleveland. New York of course made a
loyal stand for David B. Hill. but the
Tammany men realized in short orde I
that everything was for Cleveland. II
Was an utter impossibility to turn the
Cleveland tide. His popularity in the
Western States is something wonderful

wv hat do you think of the selection of
Mr.. Stevenson for Vice President?"
asked.
Il think the selection was wise one
MIR, Stevenson is wonderfully popular
man in Illinois. He has been elected
twice out of four times in Republican
Congressional district which gives about
1000 Republican majority. The leaders
considered Mr. Gray at first. but
his power to be waning in Indiana. The
leaders believe that he will work for
Cleveland in Indiana and from what
could learn Mr.. Stevenson is expected to
carry Illinois. 1t is my conviction that
Notwithstanding the great odds Grover
Cleveland will have to centend with, he
will sweep the country"
HUDsPETH ENTHUSIASTIC.
Senator Hudspeth Is exceedingly en-
thusiastic. He said:-"I am n Grover
Cleveland man first, last and all the time.
New Jersey will go Democratic with
Grover Cleveland's name at the head of
our ticket. His strength In many of the
Western States is equal to what it is in
New Jersey. Mr.. Gray might have been
nominated for Vice President. but
l heard great deal about loss of
power in Indiana. Mr. Stevenson
IS a power in Illinois. I understood that
he was one of the most popular men In
that State, but in tho face of that fact,
The leaders In the State say that Grover
Cleveland is even more popular than he
is. hope and believe that
Tammany will support Cleveland.
David B. Hill, by making
u record for himself in the United States
Senate IN the next four years, will then
be made the candidate of the Democratic
party. Grover Cleveland is going to lead
the Democratic forces to victory in this
campaign"
ALL CONFIDENT.
County Clerk Mclaughlin to his inti-
mate friends has stated that Grover
Cleveland would carry New Jersey by a
larger majority than he did in his pre-
vfous campaign.
Police Commissioner Kelly. who was
present at the Convention, states that he
mention of a mans name as Grover
Cevelapd's.
Everything In Chicago was Cleve-
land" sand he. - believe many of the
Western States, which are now
considered doubtful, will fall
In line and give handsome Dem
ecratic majoritles. The Cleveland
sentiment ia spreading like wild-fire
throughout the country. / heard men
from nearly every State in the Union say
that the Cleveland feeling in their re.
spective States was surprising.
II anticipate seeing Grover Cleveland
elected by an overwhelming majority"
