This city has extraordinary facilities
for doing business and handling an enor-
nous commerce, but facilities will amount
to nothing unless they be Utilized and ope-
rated with the utmost energy and activity
The people of this city have an opportu-
nifty to get rich if they will make proper
exertions, but opportunities which are not
improved and followed up are powerless to
do any sort of good. This is what has been
told the people all along, and no opportu-
nifty has been lost to urge upon all the ne
cessity of making the exertions and arrange
ments required to get the greatest posi-
BILE good out of the facilities and opportu-
mites that are being prepared for their
benefit. 1t is utterly absurd to think great
capitalists and railroad men are investing
tens of millions in railroads to make the
people of Cairo rich. If our people do not,
hover, use the railways and Utilize their
facilities and improve their opportunities to
the utmost they will, in the expressive slang
of the period, be "badly left" The time
is comingwhen there will be Legitimate
chance for all who will work to do well,
but they must work, and work intelligently
to get the full benefit of their opportu-
mites. The landlords and property holders
who forestall that time by raising rents and
extorting from hard working and not too
well paid people more than they are able to
pay, or than the houses are worth, will simp-
ly put off the prosperity which they hope to
enjoy. Trade is not obliged to come to
Cairo. 1t will only come here If II is pro-
ftable to do SO. 1t can easily be driven
away by excessive expenses Of living and
carrying on business, and it will be very
easy to kill the precioussgoose before sin
gle golden egg shall have been laid. For
the present, while prospects are unusually
bright business men are doing very fairly.
They are not, however, increasing the sala-
ries and wages Of employees to any con-
siderable extent, and there is no sense or
reason in increasing the expenses Of these
persons by raising house rent Perhaps
there are fewer houses empty than for long
time, and there certainly 10 a greater de-
mand for good little houses than there has
been for some time; but tho proper way to
meet this evidence of prosperity 10 not to
raise rent and everything else but wages,
and thus suppress it by driving away those
who would make their homes here but the
proper way is to meet these strangers with
open arms and purses, build them houses
and rent them at reasonable figures. Thus
the rents will be kept down to reasonable
amount, and the stream Of strangers flow
ing into our gates will increase rather than
diminish. III

Senator Hoar, Of Massachusetts,, made
an eloquent speech, Wednesday, in the SEN
ate in favor of the appointment of COM
mittee to investigate the question of woman
suffrage, and incidentally denounced the
brutal treatment to which women were sub
jected under the old common law of Eng
land. In his opinion the participation Of
women would have refining influence on
politics, and would play particularly use
full part in determining the government Of
schools, in determining the policies which
shall govern our civil service, the license
question and others. Senator Vest was op.
posed even to the appointment Of the CON-
mittee to investigate, holding that female
suffrage would degrade women to the level
of masculine ward politicians. THE Bull
LETIN sides with Senator Hoar on this sub
ject, firmly believing that a republican
form of government cannot exist consistent
ly, so long as over one.half Of its best citi-
zens are deprived Of the highest privilege
of citizenship. Mr. Vests argument, that
female suffrage would degrade woman, is of
equal force against male suffrage; but we
will wager that Mr.. Vest is just inconsistent
enough to oppose any scheme to deprive
upon this ground the better class Of male
citizens of the right to cast the ballot. Mr..
Vest seems to believe that the important
right Of voting is Of itself 80 mean and
filthy thing that the best citizens of the
land cannot exercise it without becoming
contaminated but he has probably never
thought that the very reason why this right
has sunk into such disrepute, is because il
has been given up to and allowed to be con-
trolled by the low class Of men. The leg
itimate outcome of his theory would seem
to be that the polls are of right the property
and rendezvous of the scum of society
everywhere, and that no decent person
should allow himself to be seen there. The
great trouble of most all local elections now.
a-days is that Mr.. Vests theory is too faith
fully carried out; the best men in the city
remain at home and surrender the polls to
te hummer element; hence the result often
Is that bad men are elected to Office. The
only proper way to correct this evil and re-
deem the election polls from the disgrace
full depths into which they have sunk in
some communities because Of the careless.
ness OF the better class of citizens, is to out
vote the hummer olement--render the
better class of voters ia the majority, the
greater the better and the best way to
do this is to enfranchise all the best citi-
zens in the country, without regard to color,
sex or previous condition, etc.

Another cultured audience gathered at
the opera house last.night TO see the per-
Torrance of Olivette by the Fay Templeton
and to say that every one present was de-
lighted from the beginning to the end of
the play, is putting it very mildly. The
piece itself is full of mirth and pathos and
music, which in their happy blending of
one with the other hold the auditors atten-
ton firmly to the end and move them to
laughter, or to tears as the case may be-.
Miss Fay was perfectin her part of DIV
ette, and called forth frequet bursts of ap-
plause. She was perfectly at home in her
past and charmed her auditors with the
naturalness of her movements and utter
ances. Among the rest of the company
each of whom did splendidly, Mr.. Seth NJ
Crane, as captain DeMerrimac" Mr. JOS
Handel, as "Valentine;" Mr.. John Temple
ton, who played the scheming and reckless
duo Des lis" and little Miss Lady Lee, as
the little "Cabin Boy" and Miss Alice
Coleman, in her celebrated cornet solos, and
Alice Vane, as the Countess Russemon"
all deserve special mention; for they all
received the hearty applause of the audi
ence repeatedly, showing that their efforts
and ability were duly appreciated.
The Bloomington Bulletin says; "May-
or Harrison, of Chicago, is in favor Of col
Letting large portion of the revenues of
that city through the license system. The
suggestion is a wise one, and should be
acted upon in other cities than Chicago.
As the Chicago News says; Under the
present system it is the person of moderate
means generally those who own small
properties that pay the largest share Of
taxes. In Bloomington the license system
might be applied wisely in several instances.
Take, for instance, the street car company.
1t has taken possession of Main street, has
laid wagon wheel breaking T rail, and
makes the street almost useless as public
thoroughfare. The city council should re-
quire the company 10 take up this T rail
and put down atram rail, and then should
impose an annual license Of hundred or
two hundred dollars on each car run by the
company. In this way the city could OBJ
tain small fund which it might expend in
partially repairing the damages which the
street railroad is continually doing to one
of our important streets"

"A runaway team of horses, hitched to
an empty wood wagon, was the occasion of
some excitement in the vicinity of Seven
teenth and Walnut streets yesterday fore
NOON, The driver was standing some dis
lance away from the team, talking to a
friend, when number of geese came sud.
denly flying over the commons, sending
forth loud cries rs they flew over the horses
heads. This was the cause of the runaway.
The horses ran for distance of several
squares through the weeds, throwing the
wood rack from the wagon into the weeds
in confused wreck, but were indnced to
halt by another team which was driven in
front Of them as they were about to cross a
road. Beyond breaking the rack, no
damage was done.

The newspaper correspondents of
Chicago and other cities who we're present
to witness and write up the opening of the
new opera house in this city, were very
favorably impressed with the appearance of
the building. One Of them, Mr.. Phocian
Howard, pronounced it as the finest in
Illinois outside of Chicago, and a credit to
the state, Mr.. Howard is certainly com.
petent to judge, for he has seen all the
large opera houses in the country.

In Justice Robinson's court yesterday,
one Jacob Halterman was fined twenty five
dollars and costs for carrying concealed

was found in that state by Officer Tyler,
who jailed him.
Mr.. VIM j. Duffy the gentlemanly
agent Of tho Fay Templeton opera com
pany, says that the company goes from here
to Little Rock, Arkansas, to play an en-
gagement of several nights there; from
there they make tour of several large
cities of the south and will, probably, on
their return trip, give Cairo another visit
1t seems that the opening of the opera
house and the splendid entertainment
furnished there by the Fay Templeton
troupe has had wholesome influence even
upon that class of persons who are usually
so conspicuous in our police courts; for
police business has been unusually dull
within the last few days. No better evil
dence of the power for good high toned
amusement can be asked
Although a very good audience greeted
the Fay Templeton troupe at the opera
house last night, there was also a good
sized audience at Reform hall. Several
gentlemen made interesting little addresses,
and were attentively listened to. Some
business of more or less interest was also
transacted. The next meeting will be
held in the new hall.

A mutiny had broken ont in ship OF
