Probably never in the experience OF
any Cairo tobacconist has there been such a
large, steady and ever increasing demand
for tavorite cigar, as in the case OF the
"Faultless." The run on this brand
Is simply wonderful and yet it is
not so wonderful, after all, when
we remember that this favorite
cigar possesses all the merits that is
claimed for it--that its best recommends

AT about 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon
barn which is part of the property lately
purchased by Mr., Jas. Johnson, on the cor

The Pulaski Patriot, referring to Justus
Cunningham, our great criminal lawyer,
has the following to say ~. Il. Cunning
ham, who is positive he is one of the best
lawyers in Southern Illinois, has been cir
culsting around among his friends here
quite considerably OF late. We wonder if
JustuS is not figuring after the nomination
for congress on the Democratic ticket this
fall lie would be bright and shining
light in congress- The above compliment
paid our great lawyer is well-deserved and
fttingly expressed. He would be "shin-
ing light" in any position to which the
sovereigns could assign him. For the
present, he has no congressional aspirations
as to the above paragraph intlmates, but
will make the race for states attorney He
is an eminent member of the bar; carries
with him no small degree of legal lore and
is a profound logican. OF him we can
truly say, in the language of Butler:
"He i. in logic great critic,
Profoundly skilled in analytic;

The Sun, in a lengthy editorial, draws
the leaders of its party in this county
over the Goals for their numerous in
tormalities and unparliamentary proceed
ings in selecting delegates to the state con
yention. 1t says: The appointment Of
delegates to the senatorial, representative

called the attention of the chairman of the
convention to the fact that the proceed
ings were not in accordance with
precedent, but his proteStations were
drowned in the wild rantings of the crowd,
and the sectional discussions and maneuvers
that formed the chief feature Of the pro
cccdings, carried them INTO oblivion. Every.
thing is certainly very far from beng alto
gether lovely in the Republican household
in this county, and the old saw can in this
case be used on the party almost all over
the country: whom the gods would de-
stroy they first make mai" and IA house

Might before last, while "homcward
bound" from the Office, we came upon a
crowd of loafers on a street corner, jus, as
two ladies' were passing them, and the re-
marks that were passed upon the ladies while
they were yet in hearing were Of the
grosscst nature Although the loalers re-
ferred to were Of the "genteel' breed their
actions were none the less offensive for that
The matter Of insulting ladies has been
carried 50 far that now every decent woman
has righteous horror of walking out after
sundown without being accompanied by a
gentleman. The long pleasant evenings
