The daily Cairo bulletin. (Cairo, Ill.) 1878-1???, 1879-05-14

THE New York Sun insists that the Pres
ident wants control of the national purse
and sword to forward the presidential aspi-
rations OF John Sherman. Mr.. Hayes, says
the Sun, would never desire to have them
united for the benefit of General Grant. He
cares nothing for General Grant. But for
Mr.. Sherman Mr. Hayes cares great deal,
because he would consider the election of
Mr.. Sherman to succeed him as popular
vote Of approval Of his own administration.
Congress has already rendered the purse to
Mr.. Hayes. He Indignantly rejects it, and
says no, unless it be coupled with the sword
This is all done for the benefit of Mr.. John
Sherman, who feels confident of being the
Republican candidate.

WE DO not believe that there arc one
thousand Republicans in the State of Hi
nois who do not hold, with the Democrats,
that our elections should be held entirely
free from the domination OF the military;
that, in time of peace, Federal bayonets
should be kept away from our voting
places. Submit such proposition to a
vote of the people tomorrow, and It would
be carried, in the State of Illinois, by q
majority of 100000 votes. Yet the Repub'
lican delegation in Congress, and the bull
doze1 President have declared for tho
right to control elections with bayoncts-
that American freemen are noApnger to be
trusted to do their own voting in the way
their fathers did; but shall, il the autocra
of the white house so wills il, or eros
roads Republican Dcmogogues shall ask i
pass through files Of soldiers to reach til,
ballot box.

THE course pursuedin England and som(
other European countries in relation to tho
importation of American hogs and cattle il
both curious and annoying. The shipment
of beef cattle which had lately become a
large and important trade has been almost
abolished. Having thus restored the price
of beef in England the butchers and deal
ers in meats in that country have discovered
trchina in American pork. This of course
is a false cry, 1t is becoming tolerably
clear that the English authorities are ig-
or willfully assisting in conspir-
acy tor the exclusion of American live
stock and fresh meats from the British
There is lively probability,
however, that hungry Englishmen will not
stand this kind of thing very long.

DEAR BELL-Our commencement ey

abled by the use Of Coussens' Honey of

Tell uncle John that the use Of that vaua.

bottle, and can be bought at Barclay Bros.
