COUNTY BONDED ISDEETEDN ESS.
THE PENDING ELECTION IN THE COUNTY ON
THE PROPOSITION TO COMPROMISE ITS
BONDED INDEBTEDNESS.

THE PENDING ELECTION IN THE COUNTY ON
THE PROPOSITION TO COMPROMISE ITS
BONDED INDEBTEDNESS.
The impression seems to prevail in the
county, outside of the city that the propo-
sition to compromise our bonded indebted
ness comes from the bondholdcrs, and the
Willingness Of the bondholder to take 80
cents on the dollar for his debt and accept
a lower rate of interest is evidence. il i
argued, that the bonds are not considered
legal by the holders Of them. The facts are
just the reverse of this, The proposition to
compromise this part Of our Indebtedness
emanated in the first place from this city, as
the following circular, issued over y year
ago attcsts
To the Holders Of Bonds Of the Cllyor Cairo III
The debt Of this city has lately become
largely increased by the issuance of bonds,
voted by the people in aid of railroads, un,
der M alluIlng and dcceptious act of State
legislation
Wlth this increase the citys debt has
become so large, and the burden so great
upon the taxpayers, that the corporate au-
thoritics find themselves unable longer to
collectrcvenue sufficient, or provided funds
TO meet the requirements for interest.
They therefore, respectfully ask a con
ference, looking to the funding of the
bonds in reduced principal and interest.
Correspondence should be addressed
Finance Committee, Cairo, Illinois.
Adopted by the city council of Cairo,
H., June 8, 1878.
j. B, PHrLLIs, City Clerk.
The only sound reason why bondholdcr
should be willing 10 accept the comprom-
Use is thar now he gets nothing through
lack of our ability 10 pay; whereas, if our
debt was in the shape proposed by the
compromise we could pay it, and he would
gctthe benefit Of our improved condition,
without the veSations and troubles of lii.
CATION. The proposition considered in any
of its aspect is a good thing for both the
bondholder and the county. The question
of the legality of bonds issued by the city
excepting railroad bonds, was passed
upon by Judge baker on Monday last, and
he decided in favor of their legality.
Wherever an intelligent understanding of

The canvass for sheriff is beginning to

Mrs. Burklow left the city via the

News has been received in this city
that movement is on foot to call another
convention in Perry county TO select dele
gates to the Democratic congressional con. ,
vention at Jonesboro. The objections
urged to the convention already held |
are that it WAS called for the purpose only
OF selecting delegates TO the Cen.Ialia con
vention; that the call for congressional
convention of the party in this district had
not been issued, and that in selecting
delegates at that time il was usurping the
functions of the regular county convention.
The outcome Of this will be watched with
some interest
In our Washington letter yesterday it
was asserted that the president and his
cabinet had decided not to expcnd certain
''lms appropriated by congress for the i'm
Droyement Of rivers and harhorS, and this
gave the impression that the Dickey Island
improvement might possibly be included
n the tsbooed appropriations. There is no
ground for this apprehension, for in te-
cent interview between Senators Cockrell
md Armstrong and the president. the latter
informed them that no decision Of the
abinet would affect the appropriations for
ithcr the Mississippi or Missouri rivers.
