Cy Davis, who is Interested with
Peter White in the gold find near the
Sheeptrail mines, was out looking at
the property last Sunday. He brought
back with him some handsome speci-
mems of free gold and reports that the

superficial workings. He is of the
opinion that the claims are among the
richest in the range.

G. Charles Davis came in from the
mines at the Windmill this week and
brought with him about eight hundred
pounds of ore from the rich streak
recently encountered in the vein. This
ore gave return of over IL ounces
gold, several ounces silver and . per
cent copper. The ore streak is over II
inches in width. He will soon return
to the property aud proceed to open it
up in systematic manner. So far all
the work done was for the purpose of
complying with the requirements of
the Arizona mining laws, under which
ten feet OF shaft must be sunk or un.
til a vein is exposed in place. Enough
ore has been taken out to pay for all
work SO far done on the group.

The San Francisco mining district IS
fast filing up with prospectors, in fact
SO many are there in that country that
water will soon become an important
question to them for camp purposes
alone. In the country surrounding
Boundary Cone there are nearly hve
hundred men at work either prospect
ing or working in the mines. Hun
dreds of veins have been located and
in fact there is not one available foot
of ground for miles around that is not
covered by mining location. There
are two saloons in the district and
more are going in. At Gold Road

Advertisers mighty strides forward more eloquently than it can be told in words, and we leave them to point the moral and adorn the tale.
 The shrewd business men, who have given The Advertiser this constantly i'm creasing, and of late magnificent patnpn- age, have not been actuated by either love or sentiment. but have giyen 1t purely as a matter of business. Subscribers to newspapers, now take them to get the news of the day attractively served and to read and enjoy it's editorials, even when they do not agree with them; and advertisers patronize papers because it pays to do so. The Advertiser makes no pretence of thinking it does not de- serve the business it has obtained by full filling its mission as a newspaper and keeping its merits as an organ of publi- city before advertisers. in an active. az gressive. manner; but. the splendid re- suits attained by this paper would not have been possible without a discriminat- ing. progressive. and prosperous public behind it to give it e patronage at all times commensurate with it's efforts to serve as a newspaper and its merits as an advertising medium.
 The Advertiser tenders its sincere thanks to the generous public that has made its superb growth possible; and with infinitely better equipment and facilities than it ever had in the past. 1t promises a constant improvement in all departments in future.

WANT A NEW MAN.

The staunton (Va.) News. has been looking over the field for a Democratic Presidential candidate, and puts itself down as favoring a new man entirely. It professes the highest admiration for Mr. Cleveland, and declares he has no stronger friend than it, but thinks he is not the man. It adds:
 When the Democratic Party enters the field again, it should not go in as the Bryan Democracy, or the Cleveland De- mocracy or the ''re-organizea" Democra- cy, whatever that means. but simply as the Democracy; and the leader ought to be a new man, who has no scars O bat tie on him, whether put there by friend or foe, but who stands out as repre- sentative of the party on the issues that are alive today. Is there any sense in our fighting again over the issues. that led up to the Civil War? Shall we fight over greenbackism? Shall we fight over the Dloody-shirt and force bills2 If we are not to rake up these old issues, why go back to 1896 and rake up the issues that were alive but are no longer alive?
 We are heartily in accord with The News as to the impropriety of bringing up old names or old issues, provided it is possible to avoid doing so. The Adver- tiner sometimes speaks of Cleveland Democracy" meaning the kind of Democ- racv that nominated and elected him. If we make reference simply to Democracy we are at once told by some hundreds of officious interpreters that the platform of principles adopted at Kansas City Is the only real and genuine Democracy and that anything else is spurious
 To this view we utterly refuse to sub scrihe. We are perfectly willing as a matter of policy to leave out of consider alton the names of Cleveland or Bryan of Hin or German, or of any other man who has been prominently alluded to as s candidate. and take a new man If he fits the reouirements. But, if We are not to allude to old Issues. or to rake up>oid ,ssues." how are we to formulate and declare a policy? We must get back to the tariff for revenue and certain other noIicies which made the party a power a decade ago, but how are we to do 1t If we ignore the past? Can national convention be gotten together wnleh VIII ignore entirely the platforms of lSs6 and 1900 and formulate a new one which VIII be entirely free from the heresies which made those platforms bar to success? If we can do that and agree on plat from of old time Democracy, and noml- nate on that platform a good Democrat who will be thoroughly in accord with it we may go into the campaign with hope Of success, even though our can

THIS EXPLAINS TIT.

The discovery. or alleged discovery, that millions of microbes are to be found on all dried apples settles a difficulty that the doctors have heretofore failed to ex- plain to our satisfaction. It is well known that when the small boy-or some times a man-eats a quantity of uncooked dried apples there is pretty apt to be a kind of seismic disturbance somewhere in the internal economy of that individ- ual One handful of this provender will cause more bobbery than a quart of pink lemonade.
 The doctors couldn't explain it satis- Eactorlly but now we know 1t Is microbes. The sudden change from the open air ko the dark and crowded human stomach naturally raises their dander and they at Dnce proceed to get busy. We don't know exactly how they proceed, but presume they swell up, just as a child Soes when it gets mad, and when several ehousand millions ot them begin to ex- 1and there is likely to be something doing an their neighborhood.

THE REST IS-REST.

The rest Is hearsay and common knowl- edge. The beautiful girl of the Capitol grown more beautiful woman of the Capi- tol seems to have become rather head strong and to a considerable degree in discreet In good time she turned to the world. But her troubles were not ended with marriage. Things did not go well. There was gossip and scandal. curses to which even the pure heart and unspot- ted are too often subjected. There was more indiscretion, wilfulness, and conse- Quent wretchedness: bitter unhappiness. Then there was an attempt at self-mur- der to which no sane woman or man dare resort In even the uttermost extrem- ity of woe and despair. The world rung with the scandal.
 In the short afterwhile her husband succeeded in the terrible and monstrous task in which she had failed. He slew himself; and so got his little six feet of earth by suicide.
 The years sped by along the straits of vanity and bitterness and grief, and some twenty months ago death found her in the natural way. and her one child, a girl, was doubly orphaned.
 The other month, one statesman of fame and the highest official station was reminded of her, and abruptly. startling ly, he abandoned his public career. There were threats of exposure in regard to his relations with her who is dead that he dared not face or defy; and so at the try he pipes himself of the world s stage.

TOBACCO IN ALABAMA.

The Elba Clipper Is writing up the ad- vantages of Coffee County and contiguous territory as a atobacco-producing region, and argues that farmers will find it profitable money crop in place of so much cotton. We can see no reason why tobacco should not be easily and profita- bly, grown in Alabama With perhaps the single exception of Indian corn there is no American crop more widely diff fused than it is. Some of the finest to- bacco grown in the United States comes from Connecticut. It fourishes equally we'll in Missouri and Kentucky. in Vir ginia and the Carolinas, in Florida and semi tropical Cuba. It seems able to accommodate itself to almost any soil and to the most extreme climatic varia- tions. While Kentucky is the largest producer in the Union both Connecticut and Massachusetts are large producers.
 Speaking in general terms we can think of no reason why tobacco may not be grown in any portion of Alabama. or why 1t may not be a highly profitable
 
 variety of soil that exists anywhere can be found in our State, and certainly the climate is suitable. Until there Is revolution in human tastes and habits there will always be demand for to- bacco at profitable prices to the grower, and Alabama farmers could hardly make a better departure than to substitute tobacco for cotton to considerable ex- tent. The fact noted by our Elba con- temporary that more than $70O.00o worth of tobacco has been sold in the one coun- ty of Darlington. s. C., during the pre- sent season is an evidence of what can be done elsewhere. It may also be taken as a pointer to what might be done in Alabama, and probably in Coffee County.
 This will be good subject for our State contemporaries to study up and eluoidate while there are no political questions to occupy their time. The reports of the departments at Washington are accessible and from them much can be learned in necessary or desirable that the cultivation of cotton should be discouraged or dis continued Still less should we fail to encourage the increased cultivation of food crops, but tobacco. like cotton, is a money crop, and a diversion from one to the other to 8 certain extent could hardly be otherwise than profitable. 1t is a good subject for the press to take up.

 We note that The virginian-Pilot, which was formerly a very strong Bryan paper. agrees witS One Staunton News so far as to. declare: Undoubtedly a new man is needed. but where are you going to find himr' We do not by any means look on that ss an unanswerable ques- ton. The party found a new man in 1si4 and in 1852 and elected him. and 1t may do so again There are in the Demo- cratic Party today numbers of new men," in tine sense of not having as yet been prominently mentioned as candi- dates. and among them can be found one who is both fitted and available and who Is not handicapped by having been a leader on either side of the Democratic army, admitting that there has been two sides.
 It might not be possible to nominate much less elect-any one of the present or late leaders of Democracy, on a sound platform, but 1t might be possible to both nominate and elect a suitable but com parativeiy unknown man on a good plat form. Such may be shown to be the best policy when the time comes to make a choice.
 We have given the opinions of these two papers because they are fairly repre- sentative of the sentiment which we find all over the country among Democrats. We have not abated one jot or title of our loyalty to Mir. Cleveland. If the Demo- cratic Party could wipe out half-a-dozen years or more and start where we were in 1892 we believe he would be not only the logical. but the strongest candidate in the
 party. but perhaps that is impossible. Policy may demand that in order to har- monize on a sound Democratic platform we must take up man who has no scars on him and who has no strong sen- timent against him. If that is necessary to secure harmony on sound basis it should be done.
