ONE MORE FOR HILL.
The Augusta Chronicle Leaves CLEVELAND
for Hill,

The Augusta Chronicle Leaves Cleveland
for Hill.
AUGUSTA, Ca, February 18.--[special.l-
The Augusta Chronicle OF this morning an
nounces that it is for David 3. Hill for
the presidency.
The announcement was hailed with a
shout of approval by the Hill men here,
and was o great surprise to the lukewarm
supporters of Mr. Cleveland. who had been
counting on The Chronicle the cham
pion of a "lost cause" Indeed, The Chron-
icle has favored Cleveland, and it was
thought it would continue the fight for
him.
The Chronicle like many other newspapers,
is convinced that Hill is the man for the
emergency, and that in him is the hope OF
the democratic party; and once sure that
it is right, it goes ahead in this outspoken
fashion,
We fail to see why Mr.. Hi and his friends
should be denounced as schemcrs and unprinci-
pied politicians for calling an early convention to
determine how the great state of New York would
decide as to its choice for the presidential nom-
nation. We fail to see where there is any snap
Judgment or any cause for Indignation on the
part of democrats, as it is just as fair for Mr..
Cleveland as 1t is for Mr. Hill. There IS no doubt
that the result of the primaries and of the state
convention viii voice the sentiment of New York
democrats. II the state OF New York presents the
name of Mr.. Cleveland we will support him. If
they present tie of Mr.. Hill it the duty of
all democrats 10 give him their best support.
We have great respect for MI Cleveland. HIS
administration OF the exalted office of president
was never surpassed for its strength, purity and
patriotism. Wewouid checrtu'ly support him again
for the same Office, but our Judgment confirms us
i'll the belief that as Mr.. Cleveland was our only
possibility in 1884, so is Mr.. Ili'l only posi-
biity for success III 1892. We consider him by ali
odds the most SagaciOu3 and the aDleSt leader that
the democratic party has. lie has demonstrated
such ability as a leader of men as has only been
elua,ed by Samuel j. Tildan, and this has been
means. Tho unqualified attacks upon his private
character are false and libelous, as but few men
iii private life today are so rreproachable in their
integrity and morality. lie holds the democracy
of New York in the hollow Of his hand, and if
nominated we feel sure will be elected
It is o tcn-stroke for Hill in this sec
ton, where The Chronicle welds a great
influence, and where the hard. horse sense
and wisdom of its oditor-in-chief, Hon.
Patrick Walsh, give its editorial utterances
WEIGHT with the people.

THE VOTE STOOD THREE TO ONE.
The Result of a Ballot Box Poll in Monte

MONTEzUMA, Ga, February 19.-[ Especial. J.
The people of Montezuma have a novel way
of expressing their preference for the demo
cratic presidential nominee, and there has
not been any made-up balloting. either, by
which a correspondent picks out few people,
makes up his crowd to suit himself, and molds
the result according to his fancy.
Several days ago Mayor Ingraham and sew
eral Of the best citizens Of this place agreed to
make fair test of the sentiment of the people
OF this section as between Hill ana Cleveland.
They put q sealed ballot box at the postotlce,
with the written request conspicuously posted,
for voters to put ballots in. naming their
preference as between Hill and Cleveland.
A great many farmers from the surrounding
counties came in last week on legal business
When the ballots were counted it was found
that the result was nearly three to one III favor
of Hill. who lacked only six votes to make the
result exactly three to one.
Every ballot had on it the namo OF the
voter, and it is interesting TO note that the
farmers were almost unanimously for Hill, and
that the majority OF the city voters were like
wise.
Votes were polled from Houston, Macon,
Dooly and Taylor counties.
The farmers Of this section are for Hill with
wonderful unanimity, and there seems to be
no doubt but that every ono of the counties
above named will send strong delegations to
the Chicago convention for Hill, and this
county is certain to do so.

Of delegates. This forced the Cleveland move,
and they had to begin their campaign with the

part in the primaries. The situation now is that,
instead of other states trying to induce New York
in favor of Cleveland, New York will impress on
all other states the immense and overtowering
popularity of Senator Hill in his own state"

THE RICH GOLD
DiggingS of the Lost French
men Found.

1 send you the following as re-
lated to me by "Bill" Bear. AL
the old timers know that daring
pioneer, prospector, mule driver
and ex-sub-Chief of the Apache.
Mohave Indians, ''Old Bill" Bear
Mr.. Bears statement: about
twenty-seven or twenty-eight years
ago three Frenchmen suddenly
made their appearance in Yuma and
deposited between seven and eight
thousand dollars worth of gold
nuggets with the mercantile firm
of Hooper & Co., then the leading
business house Of southwestern
Arizona. After purchasing sup
plies they mysteriously disappeared
in the direction of Aqua Caliente.
Five Mexicans determined, if possible,
to find out the source from which the
nuggets of gold came, and accordingly
took up the trail of the French pros
pectors, which led them to Aqua
Caliente, at which point they found
the elusive prospectors encamped.
Next morning camp was broken and
the Frenchmen pursued their journey
In northerly direction, cautiously
followed by the trailing Mexicans.
They became apprehensive of being
followed, made a retrograde move,
ment and met the Mexicaus face to
face and returned to Aqua Caliente
and made preparations ostensibly, for
permanent camp. The willy French
men quietly pulled up stakes in the
night, eluded the Mexioans and once
moro proceeded northwardly. When
the pursuers awoke in the morning
the birds had flown. The Mexicans
after diligent search found the trail
which they followed to point in the
mountains, at which place the French
men had separated, each taking a
diferen: direction. The Mexicans
then returned to Yuma" Nothing
further was heard of the daring
Frenchmen or their rich placers until
the spring of 1889. During the ex-
element consequent upon the dis
eovery of the Golden Eagle and
Bonanza mining claims, a Mexican,
about 40 years old, made his appear
ance here and sought for Mr.. Bear,
whom he engaged with his team to
haul several barrels of water and
other supplies to a point in the
Eagle Tail rarge of mountains, dis
tant in southeasterly direction,
about thirty miles from Harrisburg.
On'the way there, as Mr.. B. says, the
Mexican became communicative and
unburtbened himself as follows:

To Throw the Presidency Into the House

j. A. Detwiller, president Of the fourth con-
gressional district alliance of Kansas and one oil
the Kansas delegates to the peoples national
convention, has written letter in behalf Of a
number of the Kansas delegates urging Ava
Adams of South Pueblo to become a candidate
for President.
In his letter Mr.. Detwiller says: "The dis
patches inform me that the silver league has
engaged rooms OF Omaha during the people =
party convention. This fact leads me to ask
you if you would accept place on the people s
party national ticket if it should be offered
you. The fact that you were elected governor
of Colorado as a democrat renders your candi-
dacy quite available. You could undoubtedly
carry all Of the SILVER states and many il not all
OF the southern states. You may regard this
prediction wild and visionary, but this is u
fast age and men move rapidly. Iverily believe
a political revolution is at haad."
Since the nomination of Cleveland the peo-
pies party leaders have agreed to make united
fight for the silver states. and profess TO believe
that if they can succeed in throwing the cleo
ton into the House through the aid Of southern
states northern Congressman will unite with
them and compromise on q silver democrat for
President.

Kansas delegation and that it will 80 as unit
