GEN. DI CEsNoLA's labors in discovering

surface and then abandoned the quest. He
went 20 feet lower and found two stone steps
at the entrance of passage which had been
cut in the rock. The passage led into an
oven shaped chamber, 25 feet high, filled
with infiltrated earth; and second door
way opened into another chamber. The
General allowed his laborers to remove the
earth to within a foot of the rocky floor, and
then, with the aid of two trusty men only,
set to work to examine the remaining earth,
literally taking it by handfuls, passing the
fingers of the workmen, doing so not once
only, but at least twice. The Atheneura
says it was this care which insured the dis
covery of many articles of great value and
minute size. Near the middle of the place
was found heap of precious objects, the
position of which, as whole, and their dis
position severally, proved at once that this

The antiquities were in a pile just as, posst-

that hour no one had touched the precious

Political Cracksmen.

Whenever fraud has been perpetrated at
an election the natural presumption is that it
has been perpetrated by the Democratic
party. There may have been instances in
which frauds on the ballot box have been at
tempted and carried out by Republicans.
There are many proven cases in which votes
have been stolen by the Democracy. When
ever state or a part of state has been
cheated out of its choice the fair presumption
is that the cheating has been done by the
Democrats and not by the Republicans, and
for this reason: the Republican party can
plead good character, the Democratic party
cannot. In all its later history, since the
Van Baren days, it has been guilty of sharp
practices at the ballot box. Its meaner poll
ticians have never hesitated to steal votes,
and its leaders have, to say the least, unhesi-
tatingly consented TO become receivers of
stolen property. As long ago as 1874 in this
same Louisiana which is contested to-day the
electoral vote of that state and the Presidency
were captured through gross frauds in the
Placquemines parishes. Since then in Kan
sas, in Wisconsin, in New York, in Missouri
and elsewhere, Democratic frauds on the bal
lot box have been so extensively perpetrated
that the honest vote of these states has been
overcome and the control of them stolen by
the Democracy. So that now in light of this
bad record whenever state is in dispute the
natural presumption is that the great vote
thief, the Democratic party, is trying to steal
it. This presumption holds good in Louisi-
ana and Florida to-day. Ifthe electoral votes
Of these states can be stolen the political
cracksmen and sneak-thieves of the Democra-
cy will accomplish the theft. A returning
board which can cheat these experts must
be made up of men,of supernatural acuteness,
and returning board which can prevent
these experts from cheating it deserves praise
for unusual ability and shrewdness. If there
is any cheating to be done in these two states
the democracy can be trusted to do the major
portion of it.
