WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, June PA suggestion
for the campaign of 1880 and one that at
tracts considerable attention now, is that of
running Senators Thurman and Gordon for
president and vice-president. The spen-
did record ofthe former at the last session,
and the great popularity as well as sterling
worth of the latter, certainly make the sug-
gestion worthy of serious consideration,
though it is too early yet to judge of the
probabilities of the case.
A couple of excellent Democrats, Messrs.
A. S. Hewitt and Henry Watterson, are quar-
reling over the part each had in carrying
out the agreement as to the electoral com
mission There is nothing to be gained by
this, and the subject is not one that has a
pleasing interest for Democrats. Mr.. Wat
terson is an excellent editor and should re-
turn to Kentucky and devote himself to his
paper. Mr.. Hewitt's proper place is his
counting house, and it was supposed he re-
allied the fact Let the subject drop, gen
tlemen, and We will see that you are not
caught again in 1880.
Real estate in this district Immediately
felt the good effect of congressional legis
lation giving us pheasant form of govern
ment. As have before stated, the general
government assumes one-half of the ex-
penses of the district. This was proper
thing to do Some senators advocated the
payment of 60 instead of so per cent. That
would have been proper, for more than half
the cost of governing the district is trace
able directly to the general government and
its belongings. In the years 1871 to 1875
government officers put the district in debt
to the extent of over SEQ, 600, 900 for the
benefit of the United States ...t
and it was the interest on this sum and the
expense Of keeping the streets and avenues
government streets and avcnucs-in re-
E'pair, and the uncertainty Of congressional
action, which destroyed the value of real
property, crippled all kinds Of trade, and
made this once prosperous city as bankrupt
as Jay Cooke g. Co. With the legislation
Of congress, as said before, comes grea,
improvement People wishing to inves,
money or reside in the handsomest and
healthiest city in the world can now do SC
without the fear of being taxed into the
Poor-house.

THE THREE PRINCIPAL ATTRAC.
TONS OF CAIRO.

The discussions in the s. S. convention
yesterday morning were very interesting
but we were particularly attracted by the
rather spirited passage that occurred be-.
tween Prof. Jerome, Rev. Mr. Morrison,
Father PaXson and President Fisher. Prof.
jerome had expressed his surprise that Al.
cxander county was not represented in the
last convention held at Carbondale. He
had called the roll, and not a voice had re.
spondcd from Alexander, whcreupon the
good heart of the good professor had been
bowed down with grief Was Alexander
lost to grace lie msurncd over her neglect
OF religious duty. The Rev. Mr. Morrison
took the floor, and said he would explain
ne had been told, since he arrived in G liro,
that Alexander had not attended the S. S.
convention spoken of by Prof. Jerome be.
cause Alexander had been ignored either by
oversight or design, Mr. Morrison spoke
with little warmth, as he is in the habit
OF doing when interested in subject. Prof.
Jerome retortcd that good Christian
shoud not neglect Gods work becaus G

REMEMBER the election to-day.

POLLS will open at s o'clock this morn
ing in each ward, the tickets to be voted
are either "For Issuing the Bonds" or
against Issuing the Bonds" If ma
jority of the votes cast are for issuing the
bonds, the City Council will be by that
result instructed to compromise
our bonded Indebtedness upon
the basis set forth at length in
the notice of election, briefly as follows:
Issue new bonds to the amount of half the
bonds now outstanding with accumulated
interest added, the new bonds to draw 6
pe. mt interest, instead of 8, the interest
'A''eu Tor by the old bonds. After five
years, In a1';.;nn TO the interest, a"'all
,~r"o.tase Of the principal OF the new
bonds is to be paid each year, so that in
twenty years from the date of the bonds
the debt will be extinguished. This com
promise Is fair one and should be accept
ed by our voters.

Now is the time to commence earnest
work in politics. All the State tickets are
in the tield-Cronkrite, Smith and Bates.
c. is good man; so is s.; so is B.; but 9.
must be elected; and he can be if the Dem
ocratic party is organized carefully and its
leaders do not neglect to work for their
cause and ticket. b. is out of the race;
and in our opinion will injure S. more
than c.; but we must not disparagc SIS
strength. He can be defeated, but only by
the most persistent work and skillful manip-
ulation of the means at hand to consolidate
the elements of opposition to the Republi-
can party.

A SECRETION THAT CoSTAMISATEs THE
BLooD.-When the bile is diverted from
its proper channels, into the blood, which
is always the case in liver complaints, il
ceases to be healthy secretion, and be-
comes poison. Its abnormal presence in
the circulation and stomach is indicated by
the suifusion Of the skin with hidcous
saffron tinge, by headaches, vertigo, nausea,
pain in the right side and under the right
shoulder blade, by Indigestion, obstruction
q the bowels, and other minor symptoms
Order may be substituted for this state OF
chaos, and further bodily evil avcrted by
using the bencficcnt Alternative and tonic.
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which, by re-
Taxing the bowels. promotes the escape
from the circulation of bilious impurities
besides rendering the action of the liver
regular, and removing every trace of dys-
pcpsla. This pleasant and purely vegetable
anti-bilious medicine is not only infinitely
more effective than any form of mercury
but is on account Of its freedom from hurt
full properties, infinitely TO be preferred to
that poisonous drug.

The Illinois State Journal has been re-
vived, and is now issued daily. We are
glad of this. The Jourdal is one of the
most ultra of Republican newspapers, but
we like the familiar face of the old ter
magant nevertheless. With all its vixenish
manners and prejudices it has some good
traits of character, and has become one of
our most carefully read exchanges. We
hope it may live thousand years, make
money for its owners, and injure the Repub-
lican party beyond reparstion.

TOO BUSY.

Yesterday, in the S. S. convention, Broth
er Wheeler objected to Teachers Meetings,
because, among other reasons, the teachers
could not attend thcm--could not be per
suaded to give one night of the week to
the preacher, another to prayer and anoth-
er to the Sunday school Following out
this idea, President Fisher excused the alb.
scnce Of Alexander from a S. S. convention
at Carbonate, we believe, by saying that
nobody could get time to attend it, "That
is the trouble" said Rev. George, who
always hits the mark in the CEN
ter; "thc people Of Cairo are too busy to at
tend to religious duty" This is true We
never knew buster people than those of
Cairo. They never cease from laboring.
They toll night and day. Our lawyers are
busy-too busy to attend either church or
Sunday school. Our merchants are too
busy to pray; our bankers too busy to sing
hymns; our doctor too busy doing moth
ing to spare time for anything else; our
mechanics too busy to turn to the Lord and
seek salvation; and our editors too busy
looking on while others are busy, to seek
the fountain filed for all, excepting the
few who have too much ,-of the
devil in them to hope for any
effect from saving grace. AS the Rev.
Mr. George says, we are all too busy to
amount to much in religious way on
week days. But five are very attentive to
worldly affairs on week days, we arc lust
as busy at Christian work on SUNDAYS. We
thus show our appreciation of the text:
six days shalt thou labor and do all thy
work" In our six days we work for the
world busily, and on the seventh

THE REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE FOR
STATE TREASURER

The Republican State convention did an
unexpected thing yesterday. Itnominated
Gen. J. c. Smith for the office of State
Treasurer. This is strong nomination
the strongest the Republicans could have
made; and the fact should not be ignored
by the Democrats. With a host of per
sona friends scattered over the State
some in every cOunty-and an off year in
politics in which to work upon personal
friendships and make voting capital out of
them, Gen. Smith will be found to be
strong man before the people. He can and
we hope will be defeated; but his defeat
can be secured in no way except by COM
plctc organization and hard work The
Democrats must at once awaken to tire
necessity of activity in the work of
organizing the canvass, and they must not
become tired or flag in excrtion until the
closing Of the polls in November next. In
this way we can win victory, and with
the defeat Of Smith we shall have the State
secure for the future.
