Crover Cleveland Choice
Of Business Element
Out of 100 Business Men Polled by The Banner Yesterday 57
are for Mr. Cleveland, While The Others are Divided
; between Seven Other Democrats.
In view of the tentiment that is evl-
ilimtly being manifested thronghont the
United States infayor of the nomination
of Grover Cleveland for president by the
Democratic party next year,The Banner
made a poll of one bnjdred of the busi
ness men of the city of Athens yesterday
in order to find oat their sentiments in
this regard.
The question was asked as to what
man they wished the democratic party
to nominate next year for the presi
dency, and the result of the canvass,
taking the people jnst as they happened
to be met with, showed that a majority
of them were for the nomination ot
Cleveland, while the others scattered as
to their choice between a nomber of
prominent democrats. There is
doubt but that Ur. Cleveland is the
choice of the business element of Ath
ens for the presidency.
There were some who wonld like (o see
Ur. Bryan president, bat none who
Uoa„h', it in any way advisable for the
party to nominate him.
There were others who favored the
nomination of a gold standard man for
the presidency but one who, as an or
panlz d democrat, supported Ur. Bryan
in both of his campaigns.
The prevailing sentiment seems to be
that Ur. Cleveland was the man for the
place as he had the confidence of the
business element of the entire oonntry
of party affiliations would be glad to see
him president, because they had coufi
dence in him ns a basinets man and a
conservative statesman.
The result of the canvass miule was
