ALdagrim is right; the ring was already on the bottom of the great river Anduin when it was found, so it probably would only have stalled things before someone found the ring. And they couldn't be sure that the next finder would be on their side. Also Sauron was winning the war. If they did not destroy it, his forces which was in far greater number than the forces of Good, would conquer Middle Earth.
