friends are to-day jubilant over the
prospect for him, claiming nei will

nomination on- the seeond or third
ballot. He is the second choice of a
number, of Alexander's counties, for
Instance, Mecklenburg, Union,Chat
ham and others, and it does Hook
that when Alexander's name is with
drawn, Stedman will go through.
However, tne Alexander men are a
determined set. and his name is not
likely to be withdrawn until late in
the fight, and the "dark horse" is
freely predicted. -
The Alexander sentiment is strong,
as far as it goes, but it does not seem
enough to nominate him.
Fowle's strength is enthusiastic
and formidable. The Stedman men
evidently propose to stick to' the
bitter end, and as this seems also
Fowle's determination, the result is
iu Alexander's s- hands, and upon his
action will depend IStedman's or
Fowle's success. One thing is assur
