Tore FAIR.-rhe Joncsboro odseHe
should tote fair, but 1t don't. In Tue ISSUE
of that paper dated 2sd, instant we n"'
the following:
Bv peopies' ticket ruse in Cairo the
no,.oos have taken the town. No white
iaLorers are employed upon the public
works. and Sambo has it all his own way.
Thi. is always true. Give u darkoy an
inch and be will always take an ell.
Tho assertion that there are no white
laborers employed upon the public works
of Cairo will be news to our citizens, and
they will DO astonished to learn that the
negroes have taken the town. There are
Ave negroes in the employ Of the city, and
all the other employees, twenty in number,
are white men. The success Of the citi-
zens' ticket was blessing to the city, a
fact which no candid man, not ignorant
of the facts, can deny. Scrip has been
appreciated In value from 50 cents to par !;
the thieving grasshopper element which
during last year preyed upon strangers
and citizens alike has been eliminated !;
needed reforms have been introduced into
thcmunicipal government; and If the pol
icy which has been inaugurated during the
present year shall be porsevered in for sew
eral years, Cairo's financial credit will be
redeemed, and tho reproach of being the
rendezvous of confidence men, gamblers,
thieves and peripatetic roguos cannot be
any longer cast at her.

all who subscribed will respond promptly,
and that those Of our citizens whose names
do not appear upon the list, will come
forward and assist in an enterprise which
will add to both the moral and material
prosperity Of the city. 1t is the design
of those having it in charge, to put up a
building that will not only be credit to
the society but an ornament to the city, one
which, in design and architectural display,
will far surpass all the other church build
ings in Cairo. In order TO carry out this
purpose 1t Is necessary to collect all that
has been subscribed, whether the came be
great or small, and it is respectfully urged
that subscribers, and all others who may
wish to contribute, will be prepared for the
