HE TAKES THE EDITOR OF ESQUIRE CoMINGs'
ORGAN" (THE NEWS TO TASK IN HIS
PLAIN wAYIAND GETS "THBBEsT" OF HIM.
Editor Cairo Bulletins
Once more must take the trouble to re-
ply to the News, hoping it will be the last
time that will have to reply to anything
that penny sheet may say, as | do not wish
to have newspaper notoriety. The News
says in yesterdays issue that "Mr. j. T..
Allen, specimen of colorcd Democrat, an
nounces that he is the writer of the letter in
yesterdays BULLETIN, and as we have only
the general report to the contrary we give
him the benefit Of his denial" Now II |
knew which Of the specimens Mr.. JOY al
luded to | would know how to reply. II it
was my Democracy he meant can inform
him that am no sample of Democracy, but
a full tledged one in all respects or if it is
my color that he meant, it is true | am be
tween black and white, but think that my
principles are a great deal whittier than his,
as he has proved himself to be the little end
Of nothing by attacking me through his
dirty sheet without cause. He has not yet
seen me and does not know whether | am
J. T. Allen or some one else. Now, if / am
q Democrat, it Is free country. If
stand in my own light can blame no one
for it, so for Gods sake let me alone as long
as | attend to my own business. If you
mistreata good dog it will make him
worthless and Of no account. So | think
the News should find something else to
give its dozen OF two of readers besides the
name of ]. T. Allen, the uneducated Demo
cratic negro But it always happens that
when a Republican carpetbagger emigrates,
his first step is to get before the people
then the next is to get his hands into their
pockets and then it is goodbye Mr.. Carpet
Dagger So now, Mr. Editor, in conclusion,
| will say to the News, that all articles
that have appeared with my name at
tached, | am the author OF, and the
letter signed "Colored Republican" was
picked up at my door Sunday morning,
and printed just as it was written. Now
| hope the News will let me alone and tell
Us about Joe Robarts & Co., and oblige.

REPUBLICAN POLE RAISING AT
HODGES PARK.

HoDGEs PARK, H., Aug. 30 1890
Editor Bulletin;
DEAR SIR: The grand Republican hoe
downc came of here Saturday the Goth There
were about two hundred people, Of which,
two-thirds were negroes from Cairo. There
were not twenty-five white Republicans on
the ground. There were two whisky stands
and three chuck.a-luck tables to make it
home-like. There was pole raising in the
morning and after several attempts
TO raise It they had to call
on their Democratic friends
to give them lift. After hosting a very
shabby looking flag up side town they
walked off without giving it cheer, but
the Democrats gave rouser for Hancock
The meeting was called to order by the
bulldozing baby elephant, Joe Robarts, Of
Mound City, who displayed good wind and
poor brains. j, r. Thomas ground out Re
publicanism for an hour, and was cheered
along by two drunken negroes. 1t would
have been better for him anc
his party if he had stayet
away. In the evening there wa
speaking by several candidates but til,
crowd had got too full of Republican wits
key to pay any attention to them. There
was torch light procession of forty light
carried by small boys. Several of the old
Republicans here say if they can't get up q
white crowd they had better quit, aud
think as much. Yours truly DUFF.

out-when it was first mentioned on the
streets that they had secured signers to such
pledges-mentioned on the streets it was
regarded as an unfounded rumor, circu-
lated to injurc Mr.. Reeves chances
for reelection. But since Joe Ro-
barts, in the Pulaski Patriot, has
himself admitted that the report was
true, Republicans as well as Democrats
have been loud in expressing their indig-
nation and openly declare that men who
will resort to such action shall not have
their support In the last issue of his
paper Joe Robarts says; every person
present at that meeting PLEDGED himself
anew to stand by the flag of their country
and VOTE THE STRAIGHT REPUBLICAN
TICKET" And again he says: ave have
not heard of any Republican
complaining of Mr. Robarts, or
any other Republican, FOR sEcUR Nc
PLEDGES FROM THE LOYAL PEOPLE TO
STAND BY THE CAUSE THAT WAS FOUGHT
FOR FROM 1861 TO 1865" What
can be palmer that those sentences
In thelShe boldly and defantly admits the
charge-admits il in manner that argues
that he believes his action right and justi-
fable, but the indignation of men OF
his own party has already exhibited itself,
and will teach Mr. Robarts and Mr. Reeve
that while the usual mode Of electioneerng
Is approved of, their action in this regard
will receive the condemnation it merits.
But these men, in their boldness
and anxiety for success, have stopped
to actions even more despicable than the
one above referred to. They have even in
duced men to swear with up lifted hand
that they would vote the straight Republi-
can ticket. 1t may be argued by the oppo-
sition that they have done this because
they were fond of Joke and did it solely
for amusement. But this reply will be in
sufficient, since they knew too well that the
poor, ignorant beings whom they placed
under oath would regard their oath as sa-
cred and would not violate it, even though
it was not administered by one in au-
thority. We dislike to publish
these facts which seriously reflect upon
the character of Mr.. Reeve and dislike to
offend a man for whom we entertain so
high a regard as we do for him but
the statements above made come to US SO
directly and from 50 many reliable sources
that we are entirely satisfied that no in
justice Is being done him by their publica-
ton.

Dear Bulletin:
For some time have | wished to write

moments in thought and patience, to fulfill
my long cherished desire.
This is Sunday afternoon and the weather
is so disorganized-momentary rains, and
the sky covered with thick, heavy clouds,
occasionally rent by severe flashes Of quiv-
ering lightning, and loud, tremendous claps
Of thunder are momentarily heard. As sat

THE WORLD FOR 1880.

Democrats everywhere should inform themselves carefully alike the action of th cir party throughout the country anG of the movements of their Repnbli- opponents. failure to do this ill 1876 contribu ted greatly to the loss by the Democracy of the us of the victory fairly won at the polls.
 The year 1880 promises to be of the most inter- esting and important years o this crowded and evtntful century. It will witness Presidential election which may result ill re-estabiisLil g the Government of thik country on the principles it's constitutional founders, or in permanently chanSing the slatons of tie states to he Federal power No intelligent ma cap regard su. an eecton with in- difference. The World, the only daily English newspaper published ill the city of New York which upholds tn doctrines of constitutional Democracy, will steadily represent the D. mocratic party in this great canvass. It will ibis in do spirit of serVIe partisanship, but temperately and flmiy. As arews paper, The World, being the organ of no man. TO clique and no interest, will present the fullest and the farest picture it make of each days passing history in the city, the State. the country and the world. It will aim hereafter heretofore, at accu- racy first of all things in all that it publishes. No man, however humble. shall ever be permitted truly to complain that he has been unjustly dealt with in the columns of The World No interest, however powerful shall be permitted truly 10 boast that it can silence the fair criticism of The W' rid.
 During the past year The World has seen it's daily circulation trebed and it's weekly circulation pushed far beyond that of any other weekly newspaper ill the country. This great increase has been won, as The World believes by ruthfulness, enterprise ceaseess activity in collecting and unfatering loyalty to itself and to it's readers in dealing with the questions of the day. It is hope and it will be enderv or that The Worlds record for 1880 may be written in the appreciation and the support of many thous- ands of readers in all parts of this ndsso uble Union of Indestructible States
