The slight disturbance in our city oc-
casioned by the late great strike, has
again put 1t into the heads of some ofour
leading citizens that we need military
guard. A movement is therefore on feet
to organize such company, and 1t is be-
lieved thai success will be made
OF it this time. Cairo has many young and
able men who would take great delight
in the exercises Of such an organization
in times of peace--were they to but
once get taste Of the excitement it aE-
lords.
we understand that Mr.. A. II. Irwin
has been rendered aud accepted the po-
sltlon of deputy warden of the Southern
Illinois penitentlary. This appointment
is made, as we understand it, by the pen
itentiary commissioners, and we believe
they they have made the very
best selection possible, Past experience
In this state has shown that 1t is very few
men who have the requisite qualiiica>
tons to fill the position of warden in our
penitentiaries, and we believe Mr.. irwin
to be one OF these few men.
AT all events We do not believe had the
commissioners hunted the state over
they could have found man better
fitted in every respect than Mr.. irwin,
During his long experience as
sheriff OF this county. where the Jail
always contains from thirty to fifty
prisoners, he exercised great influence
over them, and they were always ODE
dent to his wishes. lie was always
kind, yet stern enough to teach them
that his orders must be obeyed, aud the
consequence was that the best OF disci-
pline prevailed among them. As deputy
warden we believe he will prove the right
man in the right place. We commend
the action of the commissioners In their
selection, and congratulate MIR. Irwin on
his good fortune In securing the appoint.
