Unparalleled Popularity OF Hill.

Unparalleled Popularity OF Hill.
Our esteemed, and more or less spotted,
contemporary, the New York Sun, has
been collecting the editorial opinion oil
the American press in favor of the NOM
ination of DAVID b. HILL. This is a
most commendable undertaking. There
is nothing more powerful than the press.
not even a street car company. Hence it
is desirable to know what the press is
going to do, and with this apology we
present the following extracts from the
Sun just as they appear in that reliable
Harrison organ:
Savannah Evening Press.l
There is a growing sentiment in Savan-
nah in favor of DAVID b. HILL as the can
didate of the democratic party for the
presidency. That cannot be denied. The
sentiment extends to ali classes of the
people. but is most conspicuous among
the workers, the men who stand around
the polls and get out the votes, and among
the workingmen. Down in the Fort"
the feeling in favor of Hill is getting
stronger day by day, and bids fair TO be
enthusiastic in a short time. His adj
mirers are talking for him and making
converts every day. They will leave no
stone unturned to add to his followers
here.
[Corups Christi Csller.l
DAVID BENNETT HILL, OF all the presiden-
tial possibilities so far named by the demo
cratic party, is at the head OF the list.
Decatur Post
The Hill boom is still making step by
step, and ere long it will cover this whole
country.
Tyler Democrat-Reporter.l
No doubt DAVID B. HILL would make a
a first-class president.
Pillow and Hammer.l
DAVID B. HILL is bigger man than "old
Goliah" as democratic leader.
TChildress Star
HILL gets closer TO the people every day.
Gainesville Register.l
HILL would make goodpresident,
lFannin Cuonty Favorite
HILL also managed the affairs of the
democratic party so as to put them in pos
session of all branches OF the New York
legislature. Ii that's peanut politics then
there are lot of politicians in the demo
cratic party whose proportions would be
vastly enlarged if they should develop up
to the standard of the peanut variety.
Wolf City sum-.
HILL's nomination and election mean
death to the republican rule.
[Smithfed Monitor.l
DAVID HILL is gaining ground rapidly,
and it now looks like he will carry the
standard OF the democratic party through
the next campaign.
There were printed in connection with
these extracts two articles defaming Mr.
CLEVELAND, but as they do not mention
HILL it is probable that they are for q
western man. 1t is seldom that more
imposing array of hackers is presented for
any man. 4 boom that extends from
Corpus Christi to Smithheld is indeed
colossal in extent, and when it is demon
strated also TO have penetrated Decatur,
Tyler, Childress, Gainesville, Fannin
county and Wolf City, we may justly say
that it permeates and pervades the whole
republic. What can withstand it? 1t
sweeps down on an affrighted country
with the imposing might OF glacier-no,
not glacier, for that melts off at the end
and it's name becomes mud-but rather
like an avalanche, an avalanche OF the
Himalayas, that moves on in resistlesS
grandeur until it lights on peaceful val
ley and involves everything in one trium-
phant ruin. That is the kind of boom
that attracts attention. II you do not
pay attention to it when it is coming, you
will after it gets there. GWhen a boom Of
this kind has performed for one consecu-
tive night at a Hlmalayan village no one
ever forgets it.
Wherefore we say, Go on, Oh, Hill
boom, and wax great Do not be salts.
fed to extend from Smithuschristle to
Corpsefeld, but reach out to the uttermost
parts of the civilized world and take in
every species OF man and beast that could
be desired to point a moral or sdorn q
tale. With a vigorous and united press
such as you already command. nothing
can prevent the people from hocking tC
you except an irresistible impulse to &c
elsewhere. Already, by his own unaided
efforts, Mr.. HILL has reached point
where only two things stand between him
and the presidency; one is nomination
and the other is an election. Let these
two trifing obstacles be overcome and the
thing is accomplished. Let every goobel
democrat put his shoulder to the wheel
