The daily Cairo bulletin. (Cairo, Ill.) 1878-1???, 1879-03-16

II Incomes a law, the res onslbility, what
ever il may be- must attad n to the hepuph-
can MARTY Pass the roposcd law, and !
how long will it be b' fore the colored
churches Of Cairo are solll Tor taxes! 1t IS Il
constant struggle Tor the members to nam
tain their respective churhcs and pay their
ministers. Tax the chuthcs and the bur
den will become SO heavy that at llcast two
out of three congregations all over the
country, will be unable tn carry it. All a
vile set of frauds are those Republican
leaders The only wonder is that the col
orcd element didn't find them out sooner
Eighth street between Commercial and
Washington is the center of the retail busl
ness. The street is usually thronged with
men, women and children, buying supplies,
or passing to other parts of the city This
being true the Health Officer has expressed
q determination to have the street cleaned
up and then kept clean. lie intends to put
stop to habit prevailing among the bust
ness men of that locality, viz: OF sweep
ing into the streets scraps Of
rags, paper, apple-peelings, spoiled
vegetables, etc If these things are not Diet,
rimental to health, they form accumlations,
in time, that are unseemly to the sight aud
have the appearance of nastiness. The
street is not the place for them.
-.-Wooten is constantly on the 60.
The services Of the chain gang have been
placed at his disposal in his work of reno
waiting the city. On Thursday, it will be
recollected, he put under ground the car
cases Of about forty dead animals, On
Friday he buried six dead hogs four dogs,
one donkey; one horse, mccall, and secure
ly covered over one exposed privy vault
Up to noon yesterday he had buried twelve
hogs, one cow and one dog These carcass
cs are found by him at different points out
in the commons. He will prosecute this
work as long as he can find anything to do
and then the citizen who throws his dead
dogs, cats, chickens, or what not upon the
street or commons will be made to take the
consequences.
DIR. II. S. Brigham who lett this city
two or three years ago and located in
Indianapolis, is now in Cincinnati, having
accepted the secrctaryship OF the United
States Home and Dover association. The
association is something after the manner
of life insurance company that issues
endowment policies, and pays over the en-
| dowmcnt after The payment OF the second
premium. But if anybody thinks that the
| business is not of character that works
largely to the advantage of the association,
let him dismiss that idea at once. More
gougins is done now -a-days, in the name of
bcnevocnce and charity than in the way of
business. We hear it limited, by the way,
that the Dr's arrangement with the eminent
DR.. Mitchell, didn't pan out exactly as
was anticipated.
Two tramps rcdolent OF strong tobacco
smoke and engine grease, sauntcred into
the Reform club reading room. yesterday,
gathered the latest newspapers together,
set chars at table convenient to the stove,
took seats, spread ont their legs, stuck their
faces between the pages Of two of the
papers. and settled themselves down to
make day Of it, In less than two
minutes from that time the same couple
might have been seen Longing down
Tenth street angrily protesting that man
couldn't be gentleman in this town, if he
wanted to vaguely intimating that they
had never yet struck decent quarters or
associations unless they were promptly or
dercd to leave them. Why this was so, Is a
conundrum we leave for the readers solu.
