Yesterdays Washington bulletins are
very encouraging in so far as they indicate
very slow but steady improvement in the
presidents case during the proceeding
twenty-four hours. The attending phys-

follows;
WASHINGTON, August 81, $50 a. M

Wy, malice, jealousy and bigotry, are not the

principles, consign them to the shades of
oblivion. Doctors, whose fort IS to look

DONGOLA LETTER.
DONGoLA, Aug. Goth, IS

DONGOLA, Aug. 29th, 1881.
In recent letter to THE BULLETIN, we
stated that the next 10 months must be
faced with no corn. Late developments
fully convinced US that the statement was
true to the letter. For more than six
weeks the severest drouth known for years
has prevailed over large portion of the
state and it is now apparent to all that
Southern Illinois will not produce over one
quartei OF crop. This creates a good deal
OF uneasiness in the minds of some of our
citizens and some may be seen with faces
quite heightened out, and nothing can be
said to them that will convince them that
they can get along, and they seem very
much cbagrined over the loss of their
summers work in the corn field The
blueness that pervaded US when we wrote
before has all passed away, and now we
are feeling just splendid, fully believing
that the great drouth will prove blessing
to us rather than curse, first it will teach
us to economize, and second it viii undoubt-
eddy give us healthy fall season and in
the third place it will bring up the deep
and hidden treasures Of the earth leaving
them near the surface. So that our next
cropping season will be very prolific. As
a people we are much inclined to be pro-
iigate, and wastef'il. May it not be that
this exceedingly unpropitious season will
turn many from their wanton ways, and
cause them to study more about ausbandry.
On Sunday 9Sth inst we attended
church at the st. Josephs Catholic church,
in Wetaug, Father Engelbert and Father
Augustine officiated, making a very good
impression on the congregation. We are
creditably informed that the Fathers will
proceed without delay to build
q fine cathedral and in due
time college will be reared up in
Wctaug, all after the order of the Benedic-
tine brotherhood. We congratulate the
fathers on their admirable selection of loca.
ton, there being no more desirable location
in all the country than Wctaug. We hope
to see the fathers make complete success
in their praiseworthy undertaking. Capt
W. A. Hight we also congratulate over his
liberal donation to the enterprise, and we
say, long may he live to enjoy the fruits Of
his labors.
Court week comes on apace, and We
doubt not we have some citizens who are
dresding it very bad, but we don't think
they need be uneasy, for 1t has become to
be a foregone conclusion that men in Union
county can commit the worst Of crimes with
IMMUNITY, especially if they can command a
few dollars and 1t don'take too big pile to
buy the States attorney. Our present States
attorney, u. w. Karracker, however, is not
one of the kind to be bought, and it is
somewhat probable that he will put some
Of Union county's roughs into pretty close
quarters.

II is not considered probable that the
suit of the Texas Pacific road against
the Southern Pacific will result. at
most. in anything more than q judg-
ment for damages for the value Of the
land actually occupied. Even this is
doubtful. The Texas Pacific claims 10
have had absolute titlo for ten years
to an immense tract Of land. without
having done anything TO earn it, or
paid any money for it. Another COM
pany, not asking any subsidy, has built
q road through part Of this land, under
tho authority of the Act Of Congress of
1915. which granted the right of way to
any company which might build its road
over the public domain in any OF the
Territories. II is now suggested that
the result of the litigation will affect
other roads. Jay Gould. " no is max.

AEoTE or WARNING.

During the past week the wooden
town Tombstone, in Arizona. has been
ell but destroyed by great FIRE. The
latest report says that l60 houses were
burned, 800 persons rendered homeless
and $500. 900 worth of property lost.
This is terrible affection to o town Of
half the size of Seattle. Il is not yet
q month since the old city Of Quebec
has also bsen visited by fire. The dam
ages there are expressed by 1000 de-
stroyed buildings. 5000 homeless peo-
pie and 81 800. 900 pecuniary loss. The
people OF both these places were COM
paratively unprepared for such as.
saults upon them. There was lack Of
water and lack OF fire extinguishing
apparatus. while there was abundant
confusion and the most pitisbIe help
lessuess. These places have had their
warnings, and for time will procfcd
vigorously to profit by them. Will
other places do the same? Will Seat
tie, for instance? That we haven't ali
been burned ont here before is little
less than miraculous. That q large
part Of the town may yet incur this
broad calamity is more than probable.
