The daily Cairo bulletin. (Cairo, Ill.) 1878-1???, 1882-09-20

cratic state central committee, has been ut
the Palmer house for the last few days in
conference with prominent local Democrats
and members of the committee in regard
to the establishing of headquarters in
Chicago, and the conduct of the campaign.
Headquarters have been established at the
Palmer house, the first meeting of the COM
mittee being set for the eth inst In re-
ply to a query by one of the Times report
ers, Mr.. Oberly said that Orendorf 8 sue
cess was contingent upon the German vote,
which he believed would be to a great extent
cast for the entire Democratic ticket. If
not, he thought Illinois would have a pro.
hibtory law, which he thought bad policy,
but which would result in bracng the
Democrats up for the presidential fight in
1884. In regard to the Democratic cam
paign he said it WAS not probable the com.
mittee would attempt to distribute speakers
to the districts.
Three more cases of smallpox were re-
ported Monday to the state board of health
by the attending physician at Jacksonville,
Monroe county. OF the Staten Island out
break, previously reported, he added: "The
two children where the small pox origina-
ted were vaccinated; neither were the last
three unit few days ago before they came
down with the disease. wanted to vacci.
nate them last winter but they objected to
having their arms made sore." From Prai-
RE du Rocher, in Randolph county,
whittier the disease was carried from the
above place, the attending physician re-
ports a sad scene of desolation in FAM
ly Of father, mother and six children all
uuvaccinated except the mother, who is
passing through very mild attack of
varoloid. The father and two children
have already died, and two more of the
children are in a very critical condition.
The authorities have been urged to secure
the prompt vaccination OF all those still re-
naming unprotected, and it is added that
this lesson should be profted by in any
community where vaccination has not
already been thoroughly and generally en-
forced during the past year or two.

Hon. Thomas NJ. Logan an injustice when
1t intimated that his election meant a sub
version of every important Democratic
principle. With all due respect for the
opinions of these gentlemen The BULLETIN
must insist that it did not make the asser-
ton complained of without deliberation and
good reason. Mr.. Logans unqualified as

district aud his offer to accept nomination
from the Prohibitionists, in direct and
exclusive opposition to Demo

not of the unwavering kind. The DR.. and
his followers are too trusting, honest,
steadfast and pure minded themselves,
they are slow to see the absence or the OPP
poslte of these virtues in Others they are
uususpecting, easily satisfied, easily mis-.
lead. They should remember that, in
government, confidence is everywhere the
parent of dishonesty, deceit, despotism "a
free, honest secure government is founded
in Jealousy and not in confidence. This is
the Jeffersonan doctrine, and it is true
doctrine. Democrats must trust no man
with the destiny of their party, who is
not staunch adherent to and bold ex-
ponent of, the principles which underlie it.
And even then it is well to bind him down
from mischief by constitutional chains.
