JUST A FEW GUESSES

West Virginia going Democratic. but
they look for theAllegheney moutains
to prove an effective barrier to the
Democratic uprising and for the mid
die west to assure President Roose-
veit four years more in the White
House.
Prior to the Democratic years of
1884 and 1892 there were unmistak able
evidences of the political trend. There
were NO such evidences two years ago
except in the east aud few of the
western cities, and these evidences
were not as pronounced as the cam
paigns preceding the years mention
ed. That, however. may have been
in large cities partly due to the disor-
ganized state of the Democracy.
But New York and New Jersey in
the election of governor in 1892 drop
ped republican majorities of only a
few. thousand, ard there was a mark
:: ed falling off of the Republican vote
in the large cities.
There has been no satisfactory test
of the strength of the two parties in
Illinois since 1900 and 1902 In 1909
a Republican state treasurer was
elected by plurality of 50, 40, but
the aggregate vote by congressional
districts that which comes
nearer being a fair test-was, approx
imately. 4l2. 900 for the Republicans
and $40, 600 for the Democrats, Re-
publican margin of AZ, 900 ON the same
calculation Chicago gave a democrat
io majority of %, 600. To many of the
Democratic wiseacres, therefore.
llinonis offers the most hopeful field
for active work in the Presidential
campaign. If the labor vote can be
swung to the democrats as it was in
1892 there would be no doubt of big
Democratic plurality in Chicago.
such as the state outside of Cook
county never could overc ONE That
is why. in some of the conferences
recently, there has been strong talk of
nominating Marshall Field, OF Ohica-
go. for the Vice Pre- sidency. Others
believe that Illinois could be swayed
best by Democratic Lominee from
outside of the state, some ole, per
haps, from Missouri, like Folk or
Francis.
The recent nomination of Deneen
for governor of Illinois is, however
discouraging feature of the Illinois
situation from the Democratic point
of view. Any way one views it. the
Democrats are up against hard
proposition in the middle west. They
must have votes there unless sue
cessful onslaught can be made in Cal
ifornia, or their cause is absolutely
hopeless. In making their fight where
the opportunities, even though not
promising, will be best, the minority
party has in hand an important
question of political generalship.

LEE & BUNTING, Props.

With political conditions in New
York growing daily worse and more
unsatisfactory to the Democratic lead
ers their attention is now turning to
the middle west. and there is much
discussion of the possibility of pick
ing man for second place on the
ticket who can influence the votes of
Indiana and Illinois.
In this situation the friends of John
r. Mclean are arguing his qualifica-
tions aud assuring the Democratic
ring masters that their candidate
could not only reduce the Republican
majority in Ohio, but could swing
Indiana and Illinois into line for
Parker, who is the favorite of those
who are booming Mr. Mclean.
Leading Democrats are, however
inclined to regard the assertions of
the Mclean men with sympathetic
skepticiSm. They recall the fact that
Indiana and Illinois haze taken to the
custom now so general throughout
the west. of saving money, have &C
cumulated bank accounts and are en-
joying a period of prosperity which
they may be loathe TO risk by a
change of administration They have
paid off their debts and banked the
surplus.
While east of the Alleghanies many
have invested their surplus in stocks
and bonds, suffered from the shrink
age in values which accompanied the
drying out of the watered stocks, and
as result are somewhat dissatisfied,
west of the mountains however there
is no evidence whatever of financial
depression.
Representative Shively and
Representative Miers are also suggest
ed as likely vice president timber
which is calculated to influence the
vote i'll the middle west, but their
names arouse no enthusiasm among
men who have recently looked over
the ground Moreover, it is admitted
that it will be very difficult to draft
a platform which will command re- |
spect of both east and west.
The sole strength of the Democrats
in the west in the large cities. where
tile socialistic element must be ap-
pealed to bring out strong Demo
cratic vote; but as strongly Bryanist-
ic or Socialistic platform would not
be drawing card in the east, no
more than Judge Parker will prove a
strong card in the west
So it is that the Democratic politi-
clans are at their wits ends to shape !
a program for the western campaign.
Granting that the Republicans en-
counter reverses in the east. "A solid |
west would be a bulwark against any
change of administration Some look
for duplication of the campaign of
1892 in the east. with New York,

ward was offered for their capture.
 The herder was so frightened at the position in which he found himself that he decided the best thing he could do was to leave the country, so he an nounced to his employer that he had de- cided to return to his old home in Mex leo. He was a great favorite with his employer, and the latter insisted that he remain at least several months longer. This Otero consented to do, and by the time he departed for the south the incident of the big robbery had be- come an old story.
 When otero departed from the dairy ranch his mule carried in it's pack the treasure from the canon, and eventually the herder arrived at Los Angeles. While canped in the Cahuenga Pass the man decided it was safer to chche the treasure again, and he did so, plac- ing 1t under a fresno tree. "one pack age jewelry thirty feet due east; one package thirty feet due west; the mon- .ey fifteen feet north of the fresno tree" !" This is the accurate description given by those who think they hold the key of the secret treasure, and which de- scription they claim to have had direct from the man who buried it,
 After Otero's arrival in Los Angeles he stayed at the hacienda of Jesus Mar tines, whose home was on what is now Washington street. About the first thing otero did in this city was to at tend a lively Spanish fandango, where he overexerted himself. and the next day he fell i'll of pneumonia, He re- =mained i'll at thte house of his friend Martinez until May, 1867, and in grati- tude to his friend he told him of the buried treasure in the Cahuenga Pass and agreed that as soon as he was able the two should go, to the pass and di- vide the stuff equally between them.
 Martinez hesitated about having any, thing to do with the money, as he shared the belief of many that such for tune was under the baleful influence of the "evil eye,' and that death would rest it's hand upon the holder of the riches; but desire for gold finally over came his scruples.
 The very day following Otero was taken with a relapse, and he died be- fore a priest could reach him to hear his confession and give him the last rites of the church.
 All that otero could say to Martinez in his exhausted condition, in describing the place where the treasure was bur- jed was: Near where the road crosses the arroyo on the north side of the pass under a fresno tree" and giving the distances as related above. " After the burial of Otero, Martinez again had qualms about the influence oi the "evil eye" on such riches, but he finally plucked up his courage and with Joe Correa, then lad of fourteen years he made a search.

 Joe Correa was in possession of the secret, but, like the dead man, he was in fear of the death-dealing "eyil eye and let the treasure alone. As he grew to manhood, however, he made several ineffeetual attempts to locate the cache, but without success. His confidence m he herder's story neveer faltered, and finally he planned to secure lease on all the land in the pass, procure the largest subsoiI blow obtainable and turn over every possible bit of land, by which method he believed he would turn up the missing gold.

 An attorney has departed for San Francisco to further the search for an alleged buried fortune in the foothills. If his arrangements come to a success ful issue. every foot of the Cahuenga pass will have thorough inspection by treasure seekers.
 Away back in 1865 Alonzo Otero was herder on dairy ranch in the neigh borhood of Livermore Pass, near San Francisco. One day while Otero was pasturing his herd in one of the canyons and was himself reclining under the shade of a thick growing clump of low trees, he saw a party of three men ride up and stop at several points and care- fully gaze around, apparently trying to ascertain if they were observed by any one.
 The herdsn1en had no relish for meet ing these three rough looking strangers alone, and as they were dismounting he concealed himself still more securely in the thick growth and watched their pro- ceedings
 Evidently satisfied that they were unobserved, the men proceeded to a small grove, and removing some pack ages from their saddles, dug hole in the earth and buried the bundles. Then they made several marks on nearby trees, and returning built fire on the newly upturned earth, cooked their dinner, ate and remounted their horses and soon disappeared from the canyon.
 Otero remained concealed for several hours, but finally he ventured over. to the recent camp and made 8. careful in- spection. He, drove his herd home ear- ly, and that night returned and un- earthed the packages he had seen bur jed.
 Report has it that the maA found in the cache one package of American gold coin and two others containing watches and fine jewelry, among them some good sized diamonds. Otero scarcely knew whether to announce his great find or not; but he finally buried 1t again in another section of the canyon.
 Within a few days the people all about San Francisco were talking over the daring robbery which had taken place in one of the jewelry stores of that city. Masked and armed men had seized about twenty thousand dollars worth of jewelry and about three thou- sand dollars in gold coin. A large re-
