-Centralia Democrat remarks ::
"Hon. John Ii. Obcrlv announces IN
the Cairo BULLETIN that his connection
| with the editorial and business DEPART
ments OF the BULLETIN ceased June lst /;
but that he will remain in charge of the
job department. The BULLETIN, under
}. Ii. Oberly, has attained first-class rank
as a well.conductcd and very ably edited
Democratic newspaper. The new
managers are Messrs. W. +. and l.. C.
Schuckers. If these gentlemen do as good
shucking as John has done, they wi
merit the same degree of patronage and
and consideration. We hope they will.

throughout Southern Illinois by the an
nouncement that Judge F. Bross. county
judge OF Alexander county and police
magistrate of Cairo, had resigned those
