answer to this question. The postmaster
is Republican, as is also the entire force
Of the Cairo post Office; he knew the mail
to be Democratic political matter, proper
delivery of which might be detrimental to
the interests OF his party, and that the men
to whom the letters were addressed, were
reading and thinking men, who would not
b. apt to cast q letter Of that kind aside
with a sncer. These are the facts and,
knowing that the excuse offered for the
non-dellvery of the letters i; not allowed,
for certainly, such men as c, O. Paticr,
Judge Bird, etc, etc, are known to the de-
partmeut,J gross violation Of law has been
resortei to in order to serve the party in
power. This is not the first intmation. We
have had Of unsystcmatic business in our
post Office, Complaints have repeatedly
reached us Of various wrongs in the man
agemen:, which greatly Inconvenience
some Of our business men.
The above facts We obtained from Mr.,
Walton Wright, and are highly damaging
to the officials in the mail service here. |,
may be that an explanation csa be offered
for this apparently uuiusafable wrong,

HON. JOHN II. OBERLY SIAN.
DERED

The Peoria Transcript is responsible for
the following
John II, Oberly, in his Saturday evening
speech, vouched for the patriotism Of the
democratic party. And yet Obcr!y IS said
to have been in the rebe army, Who
vouches for his patriotism,
John II. Obery was not in the rebel
army He lived at Memphis when
the war broke out, where he voted tor
Douglas in 1860. His opposition TO the
secession movement was so pronounced
that he became an object OF special
hate to the rebel element. He was
arrested by secession vigilance commit
tee, and given twentyfour hours in which
to leave the city, in which he had lived for
years, because Of his devotion to the Union
and constitution and the laws. He was
personally ill-used, his property sacrificed
and his plans for the future laid waste
Instead of being in the rebel army, John II
Oberly was true to the Union at time and
in place when it was all ones life was
worth 10 declare tor the Union. We have
evidence of the transcripts falschood wLicl
is subject to the examination Of the curious
Oberly's patriotism needs no vouchers. Il
is as fixed as the hills.

ished address on the subject "Father
Matthew, the Catholic Apostle Of Temper.
ance," in which he pictured in glowing
terms the good work accomplished by that
good man. A handsome boquet, furnished
by Mrs. Wm Batty, graced the presidents
table The singing was of its
usual character, and the meeting in gener-
al was as pleasant and interesting as the
most exacting could wish for.
The News Of last evening clips the bet
published in yesterdays BULLETIN aud
signed "Democrat," and proceeds to dissect
it, and in its criticism forgets that it re-
peatedly made the assertions, which, in its
dissertation it indirectly denies, There are
four propositions in the bet offered by
democrat" and of these four the News,
by stating that the better would win seventy
five dollars, admits that he can prove three,
The proposition which the News claims
can not be proven is the second: "that it
was done 10y three prominent republicans
who reside in Cairo" Among the three
that It thus admits can be proven is the
first shat the 1920 was not ordered
painted by the democratic national commit.
tee" Yet the News has repeatedly asserted
that the painting had been ordered done
lN,.t lN.. Il rNn NNNtt an
hence it is guilty of square back-down
by admitting that Democrat would win
his bet on that point But to another
point. As intimated 10y the News
Capt. W. p Wright called upon us yester
day morning and offered TO take up only
one of the propositions, and not being the
better ourself, nor yet having authority to
accept any offer that did not include all
the propositions, we were, Of course COM
PEELED to refuse his offer. He then offered
to accept all the bets with some material
alterations, viii CHI we were, Of course, also
compelled to decline. II should be under
stood that we did not make the bet and
had, therefore, no right to accept any offer
that did not mean an unconditional accept
ance of each and every proposition con-
tanned in the bet without any alterations
whatever Incorporation made democrat
were perfectly fair, considering that the
News has seen fit to make the very state
ment which he denies, and the fact that no
one can be found to take them all, only
shows that the assertions of the News were
untounded. We still have the one hun
bred dollars IN our possession and are pre-
pared to put them up on the propositions as
made Yesterday.

DEMOCRATIC MAIL NATTER

About week ago Mr. Al. Sloo, one of
our postoffice clerks, called Mr.. ". w.
Wright to the delivery window and in
formed him that large quantity of cam.
paign mail had been received at the Office
addressed to persons who could not be
found.
Yesterday Mr.. Sloo again called Mr.
Wright, and after again stating that the
parties to whom the letters were addressed
could not be found, handed him out eight
large bundles of letters. Mr.. Wright took
the mail and found that it was a mass of
democratic campaign documents, sent here
no doubt, by the national democratic cen.
tral committee, and after throwing some of
the letters away, examined few of the
balance and found that they were ad-
dressed to nearly all the most promi-
nent citizens in Cairo-men who have
resided here for many Of years, are known
by near y every man, woman and child in
the city, and who have, at the present time
and have had for years, their mail boxes in
the post Office into which Mr.. Sloo places
