The daily Cairo bulletin. (Cairo, Ill.) 1878-1???, 1879-05-08

IT IS nice condition of society that is
maintained in the Republican State Of Col
orado. The following is from Republican
authority, the Denver Tribune, and as it
has no special connection with politics, it
is probably entitled to credenco:
among our citizens who go about with six
shooters in thclr hip pockets preachers doctors,
lawyers judges school teachers scholars, business
men, tourists, clerks, statesmen, and even GRAND
boys. Even the ladies arc large owners. The lower
classes do not so uniformly arm themselves with
Tevoyers as the upper ones Perhaps, and indeed it
probably is, because they cannot sIord pistol.
An officer who had inst arrested thief after des.
perste struggle, remarked to tAe writer recently,
I'm bet that if had asked for that kind of asss-
lance every man in that crowd lining the sidewalk
would have pulled revolver.

How happens it, gentlemen Of the Re-
publican press, that we hear no more gush
about Democrats paying rebel debts? Why
the profound and protracted silence on that
subject? The 43rd and 44th Congress,
wherein the Republicans had complete con-
irol, paid over one hundred million dollars
of the Southern claims. The 45,h and 46th
Congress, partially and wholly under Dem
ocratic control, paid-how muchl Not one
dollar! With their arms, elbow deep into
the Federal treasury pulling out millions
of dollars every month to apply to the pay
ment of rebel claims, Republican congress
men raised the lusty howl. manifestly to
divert attention from themselves; Look
out, good people, look out for the Demo
Gratis! If they obtain control of congress
they'll pay the rebel debit And while
they continued to howl they continued to
pull out the millions. The dreadful Dem
ocrats finally came into power; but they at
once sat down on that little Republican
game They pulled the Republican
plunderer's arms out Of the treas.
ury, and sought TO close up the rebel
claims avenue to the Federal cash box. In
this were they aided by the Rcpubicansl
Not bit OF it, On the contrary the bill
introduced by Mr.. Bragg, the Wisconsin
Democrat, TO abolish the Rebel Claims
Commission, was opposed by the Repubi
cans in u body, under the lead of Garfield
anu defeated, What do honest Republi-
cans thlnk Of ihatl Two years AGO the
whole party was convulsed by the fear that
the Democrats would bankrupt the treasury
by paying the rebel claims. Now tina,
Democrats say that no such claims shall me-
paid; we'll barricade the treasury agains,
them, the Republicans face about and he.
come the champions Of the rebel claimants
This Is called Republican strategy, When
things are called by their proper names i,
will b. known as political perfdy; self
qualification, downright dishonesty.

ONE of the marycls Of the 10th century is
that in some portions OF the country two
thousand people live in an agony OF fear
lest scventytive or perhaps hundred other
people who live among them, will turnout
some day and maui, cut or shoot them to
death According to Republican authority
one Southern Democrat can put hickory
club under his arm, herd hundred and
fifty or two hundred Republicans, drive
them to the polls and make everyone of
them vote the Democratic ticket. When
anybody mootS the possibility of clash of
arms between the two parties, however,
what wonderful change is put upon af-
fairs. The Republican at once becomes a
hero, of whom several Democrats would do
well to stand in profound awe, The truth
is that the bull-dozing stories are not only
false; but absurdly So The small minor
ity can't terrorize the large majority any
where. 1t would be utterly impossible for
the 1900 white voters of Cairo to bull-dozc
the 400 colored voters. 1t is the Rcpubli-
can theory, however, that if we had only
400 whites and 1900 colored men, thar then
a reign of terror among the blacks would
be inevitable. Shccrer nonsense is utterly
lnconceiyablc,

4 VERY Jealous country contemporary,
who doesn't care what he says, declares
thai 'the Republican party saved the coun-
try" II the declaration were true, and it
is t,,the fact that the party saved the

lnconceivabl.

IT is admitted quite generally that the
majority of the gentlemen who constitute
the present General Assembly, remain, to
this day, uncorrurted. OF course many of
them are incorruptibc through ordinary
processes; but how happens it that SO large
number remain uncontaminatcd! The
correspondent of the Chicago Times an
swcrs, "bccausc they have not been tempt
ed" The Times correspondent asserts as
ton, that little if any money has been used
IN furthering or hndcring the business Of
the session. One reason for tins belief is
that, with perhaps two exceptions, none OF
the suspects are in a condition of financial
prosperity. They board chcaply at private
houses, they smoke niclilc cigars they seek
out saloons where whisky rctais for ten
cents a drink, they wear the same clothes
they did when they came here, and they
are inyarablyjust a little ,hor, immcdi-
ately prior to pay day, and looking for
some one to loan them five" Even the
champion middIcman Of the capital, the
great and only | Am who has influence"
does not seem particularly cheerful over
the results Of the session, and, if outward
signs may be taken as the induces OF cor
ruption, it is safe to bet that the Thirty. first
General Assembly is reasonably honest
although duced long winded and lazy.

FALLING LEAVES.

They are falling, slowly falling.
Thick upon the forest side,
Severed from the noble branches,
Where they waved in beauteous prid
They are falling in the valleys,
Whore the early violets spring
And the birds in sammy spring-timo
First their dul ct music sing
Thoy are falling, sadly falling,
Close besides cottage door;
Pale and faded, like the loved ones,
They have goae forevermore.
They are falling, and the sunbeams
Shine in beau ty soft around;
Yc the iaded leaves are falling,
Failing on the messy ground.
They are falling on the streamlet,
Who're the silvery waters flow,
And uron its placid bosom
Onward with the blue waves 60.
They are falling in TIE churchyard,
Whore oar kindred sweetly sleep;
Whore the idle winds of summer
Softly o'er the loved ones sweep.
They are falling. ever falling,
Whom the autumn breezes sigh,
Whom tho ars in beauty glisten
Bright upon tho midnight sky.
They are falling whom tho tempest
Means like oceans hol ow roar,
When tho tuneless winds and billows
Sadly sigh for evermore.
They are falling, they are falling,
While om saddened thoughts still go,
To tho sunny days OF childhood,
In the dreamy long ago.
And thuir faded haes remind us
Of the blightost hopes and dreams,
Faded like the falling leade-s
Cast upon the icy streams.
