upon which they are entering. The prepar
atoms for business are complete, and If in
dications do not mislead, an active ant
prosperous season may be relied upon,
John Riley INDUCED in plain drunk
Yesterday, and was fined, therefor, two dol
lars and the inevitable accomplishments
Having no money he was consigned to the
care of Mahoney for term Of five days.
Vote for Allen, for Hartman, Halliday
and Robinson. They are all nominees OF
the Democratic party, for whose success the
people of Cairo and Alexander county
should feel al especial concern.
Charles Allen was taken before Judge
Bird, yesterday, on the compound charge OF
dsorderly conduct, and carrying concealed
weapons. Being found guilty he was fined
$99 and costs, and calaboosed for So days.
The election of Judge Allen will drive
the "bloody shirt" and personal nllifcation
out of the political arena, in the 18th con-
gressional district. His election will be a
lust rebuke to that mode of eectionearing
1T is said that over forty thousand
tickets have been provided for the use Of
the voters of Alexander county to-day.
With this supply, nineteen tickets will be
wasted for every one that goes into the bal
lot box.
The deaths yesterday, were that of Mr..
Stanton and colored woman named Stokes,
living in the 4th ward, and little daugh-
ter of Mr. Anthony, resident Of the end
ward. The negro woman had been sick
over two weeks, and did not die Of the fe-

The Baked Beans and Goldfish festival
in Boston, and the Turrip. greens and Hog
Jowl matinee in Syracuse, have proved such
effective means for raising funds for the
churches that we suggest the adoption Of
the idea in Cairo Mackerel orsouse would
be a taking card" almost anywhere.
There was rumpus among the deck
hands Of the steamer Henry Frank, yester.
day, during which a negro man received
several severe thumps over the sconce and
countenance. Warrants were issued, but u
diligent search failed to reveal the wherea-
bouts of the offenders.
The especial tax which the voters Of
Alexander county are called upon to vote
"for" or against" to-day, will be applied,
if levied, to the construction of good
county road. Everybody in Cairo, who
would draw to our market the trade of the
country around US should vote "for the
Special Tax"
John Curley got drunk, and being
drunk he became disorderly. Being taken
before Judge Bird the damaging charge
against him was proven, and the Judge
thought the insulted majesty of the law re-
quired solace of seven dollars. Curley
being mpecunious consented to pay the
amount by stay Of ten days with Mahoney.
Under the minority representation sys.
TEN you can cast three votes for
one o. the candidates for representative,
or one vote for three of them; or one and a
halt for two of them. Votes cannot be
divided into smaller fraction than half
Democrats throughout the district should
give Halliday and Robinson one and half
votes, EACH
We were mistaken in fixing the place
Of Mr. Nslly's burial in the cemetery of the
Lotus. As the matter seems to be one OF
consequence with some folks, we now take
occasion to say that the remains found sep
ulture outside the Mississippi levee, where
rest the bodies of the lamented Phil How
ard and other victims of the terrible
scourge that "cal!ed and took few denia,s."
Democratic chGllengers men who
know the duties of challenger, and will
not fail to discharge them-should be at all
the polls to-day 1t is now known that at
least one hundred strangers are quartered in
the city, and that it is the aim Of the
Republican managers to vote them for
Thomas, Especially soould the quota con.
tributed by the steamers Laura Lee and
Henry Frank be watched narrowly,
Charles Mckinney and James Hardin
are OF that class of people who live by theii
wits. 1t not being apparent to our police
force that Messrs. Mckinney and Hardin
were earning an honest livelihood, {. ey
were pulled" before bis honor, Judge Bird
The evidence lodged against them render
ing them subject to a severe application Of
the "vag act" they were fined 500 each
and given short stay Of execution thatthey
might leave the city.
Brother Houpt informed the editor O.
the Carbondsle Free fress that he vii

Democratic vote Of Alexander county, q
