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 i follows: For Cleveland : T. 1’, Olivtr, T. L. Mitchell, W. W. Thomas. A E. Griffith, A. 8. Erwin, L F. Elwaids H. R. Palmer, J. M Hodgson, B. J. Bondnraut, J. H.
