EDITOR BULLETIN Our citizens In
the lower part of the city woke up this
morning, to find that by working Sun
day and Sunday night, the Narrow Gauge
railroad company had succeeded in lay
inc track up Second street to the
grounds of Halliday Bros. on the Ohio
lcy,ae, thus connecting with their ware
houses. and firmly riveting another link
in the chain of oppression with which
these ncfarous rings and monopolies
have bound us, the iron of which has
long since entered the peoples souls.
As there had been some excitement ana
indignation lately at the action of these
vampires, it was hoped these expressions
| would not be renewed shortly, and that
the people had some rights left that
| would be respected, but it seems differ
emf. Another march has been stolen on
the city, and It's rights crushed out and
trampled upon by II coalition OF unprin-
cipalcd, hcartless monopolist. Now, Mr..
Editor, the people want to know why and
by what authority this has been permit

Wreck of n Train On the Illinois Cen
trail.

From Mr.. .. r.. Dudley, an express
messenger. we learn the following in re-
gard TO the wreckin. OF the train OH the
Illinois Central road by the storm that
visited the northern part of this State on
saturday night.
The train was running along at the
rate of about twenty-five miles an hour,
and had reached Il point one mile this
side OF Neoga, a station some twenty
miles north of Centralla. The rain was
coming down in torrents and the wind
blew perfect hurricane. The middle
ear OF the train was lifted fairly oil the
balance of the train, including the engine,
followed. The middle car of the train.
where it was landed, lay fifteen feet
from the track. The pilot Of the engine
was pointed toward the track, while the
tender lay next the baggage car in the
! ditch. The rear end of the sleeping car
was thrown into small culvcrt. while
| the express car, in which Mr.. Dudley,
! our informant, was at work, lay at the
loot OF the embanl,ment, which was about
/, six feet high, OH its roof. The cars were
very slightly damaged, the couplings al |
! holding fast.
There was twenty-three people, ill.,
R Guiding seven ladies' and one child, be-
( sides the train hands, on the ears at the
! time of Tie wreck, all of whom were
more or less injured, though none were
| hurt fatally. Among them were Mr. w.
I II. Ackerman. auditor of the road, and
his wife. Mr.. Alderman had his collar
bone broken and his shoulder dislocated.
[ Mrs. Alderman was also pretty badly
bruised. The only person fatally
| wounded was brakeman.
| One of the most remarkable and COM
mendablc acts that has been chroniclcd
for many day was that performed by
the colored sleeping car porter. whose
name we could not learn. When hi.
car was thrown over, one of the hat
hooks was run into his eye, tearing II
out, and really hanging him upon the
side of the car. lie cXtricated himsel
and seeing Mrs. Alderman unable to hell

The Republicans OF Pulaski county
meet in mass convention at Mound city
on last Saturday afternoon for the pur-
pose of selecting delegates to attend the
State convention the congressional con-
vcnton. and Senatorial and Representa-
tive conventions. The Republican party
in Pulaski county is sadly demoralizcd,
and the ill.fceling existing between the
faction, eliminated during the proceed
ings of the convention on Saturday.
Judge Brown, of villa Ridge, chairman
of the county central committee, called
the convention TO order, and OF course
occupied the chair until the temporary
organization was effected.
The convention was no sooner called
TO order than Maj. sam. Lewis, and Mr..
Anderson. lawyer Of Mound City, were
on their feet. and almost in the same
breath. Lewis nominated Judge Brown
for chairman. and Anderson nomln ated
II. II. Spencer. Under the circum,tan-
cos Judge Brown could do nothing else
than submit the nomination of
Mr.. Spencer to vote OF the
convention first. which he was about
to do, when tue Lewis faction kicked up
such row that nothing could be done
and for a time the utmost confusion pre-
vailed.
Finally. after much rangling, Judge
Merit was nominated aud elected chair.
man.
Taking the chair Judge Mertz made 0
few remarks thanking the convention fol
selecting him to preside over it, and
subsidized.
Mcrtz was hardly seated before sheriff
Spencer was on his feet, and offered q
resolution pledging every man who par
ticipated in the deliberations of the con.
ven,ion to the support of its nominees
This was the signal for another row. Maj.
Lewis and his followers protested. The
motion to adopt was put, and as 1t was
evident il would carry by good major
ity, the Lewis faction. with the Major al
their head, took their hats and bolted--
waltzed out OF the house.
AMER this last scene affairs went OIL
quiet enough, the Spencer crowd having
everything their own way.
Delegates to the State convention were
selected, and instructed to cast the vote
Of the county for governor for Hon.
Thos. ). Ridgway.
The delegates to the congressional
convention were instructed To vote for
Jonathan G. Willis.
Delegates 10 the representative conven-
ton were instructed to vote Tor Judge
Merit.
Il is said that Major Lewis desired the
nomination for representative, aud meet
ing with The bitter opposition of the
Spencer faction of the Republican party
of his county induced him to bolt.tht
convention. Lewis and his friends
claim that Spencer and hi:
crowd tried to pack the convention and
Spencer and his crowd claim that Levi,
was trying to pack it in the majors inter
est. However this may be. the fight be
