II ought to have been hardly necessary for

give an exhaustive and formal opinion that "a

of the act which prohibits such payment, by an
officer or emplOye of the Government to any
other officer or emplOye OF the Government.
4 circular asserting this, and warning persons
not to pay under penalty of the law, has been
sent to officers and employees who had been in
vited to contribute by Mr.. Ilubbel's Congrcs-
sional Committee. Thereupon a lady and a
gentleman i'll one of the Treasury bureaus
complained. They represented that they were
willing and anxious To contribute, earnestly
desiring the Success of The party to which they
owed their positions. But they were "between

Ii must give Old Trinity peculiar sensations
to have the Society for Improving the Condition
of the Poor calling attention to the wretched
condition of some of the tenement houses which
are owned by tins venerable corporation, and
which return TO it handsome income. The
society is energetic and persevering, and no
doubt will pull the parish through. What it
has already accomplished will be seen by an
article in our local columns. That Old Trinity
needed 70 be reminded that charity begins at
home there can be no doubt but it can be said
in defence Of the yestrymen and their assistants
that many of the buildings were let on long
leases and were under the temporary control of
the tenants.

A decided change for the better has been
made in the management of Roosevelt Uospl-
tai, and if the superintendent is able to carry
out all his ideas there will not be a chance
for the most caphOus coroner to censure the
institution again, as was properly done re-
Gently in the Gutermuth case. Some other hos
pitfalls IN the city would do well to follow
the example set 10y Roosevelt nforma-
ton that ought to be made public is too
often suppressed lest the reputation of the
hospital should suffer. The result is that the
reputation suffers, although not in the way
that was feared.

The leaders are about all that remains OF
the freight-handlers strike. 1t is one OF the
worst features of the labor troubles that they
bring forth a plentiful crop of demagogues'
Several that were only in bud in 1881, when
the brewers men and the bakers went on
strike. are now in full blossom. Last year these
men worked during the day and helped on the
strike by speaking in the evening. Then their
sincerity was little questioned. This season
they have devoted all their time to agitation.
Their object, therefore. has been perfectly
apparent, and their advocacy has worked to
the disadvantage of those whom they protested
to serve. These agitators are small politicians
with Socialistic tendencies, and their aim has
been to gain influence for their party and
themselves Naturally, when the business men
saw this, their sympathy for the freight
handlers decreased. But these demagogues
have succeeded to a certain degree III their
plans. They have made themselves more
widely known among labOrers and have gained
a certain influence. As to the freight handlers
themselves, many Of them have found employ
ment in other kinds of work. few yet
remain in idleness foolishly hoping that the
railway companies may find themselves blocked
next month, when more freight will be shipped.

Tailor Martin used every precaution that 1t
was possible to use, and which long exper-
fence in the position he held taught him to
use; but, as events proved, they were no
barrier at all, even to a single rufiiaD, bent
upon gaining his liberty at all hazards.
Again, looked at from the prisoners stand
point and from humane nd-point, the
old Jail is unfit for human habitation. At
this time Of the year when petty criminals
flood the cities, Cairo has her share of the
increase in this undesirable class of people
and her little Jail most
always contains from six to
ten men. To crowd these in one little room
from which light and draft are almost en-
tirely excluded, there to remain for weeks
and often months, is cruel, to say the least.
The average man would revolt at such
treatment. Common humanity and com
mon sense demand that prisoners shall not
be thrust into dark, damp dungeons, where
Whit of fresh air and ray Of sunlight
are rarites. There is no good reason why
jail should not have as much air as a
modern drawing.room; there is no reason
why Jail should not be disassociated from
foul air and darkness; there is no reason
why place Of security should always sig
nifty place where men languish and die
for the want Of natures freest gifts to all
who have not forfeited their right TOT live.
Make prisoners earn their fare by work
work from which the city as well as the
prisoner may derive benefit--but do not
compel him to lay in cell to suffer for the
want of pure air and light. Such punish
ment is neither permitted by law nor sane
toned by humanity. Nothing can be said
against the city jail on the score of clean
illness, II is being kept as neat and as free
from dirt Of every description as can be.
But it lacks the most important features of
Jail, which the iailer cannot supply-se-
curity and general henlthfuness. 1t is
probable that the success Of the late at-
tempt to break jail by over powering the
keeper will have an influence. 1t will be
the subject of talk among all the loose
characters in the city and will induce
them TO undertake similar course in case
they find themselves in a position to benefit
by it. Something ought therefore TO be
done at once.

the sidewalk. He then pounced upon his
wife with the ferocity Of savage beast,
struck her in the face and about the head
and chest with his fist until she dropped
PROSTATE at his feet and then kicked her
several times in the side and back. Having
thus satisfied his righteous (2) indignation
the cowardly brute left the woman to be
taken care of by sympathizing friends and
it is thought stole free ride out Of the city
on an outgoing freight train, to avoid arrest
and lawful punishment. AT any rate, Off
Ger Mahanny, who had a warrant for the
fellows arrest, yesterday searched for him
in all parts of the city--in all the dens of
vice which the fellow was wont to
frequent-without finding him. The
poor woman is but of slight build and sus-
tanned injuries which may prove fatal. She
was carried home by friends and given med
ical attention. Yesterday afternoon she
was still IN an uncertain condition. Much
indignation is felt by the people in the
neighborhood where the inhuman assault
occurred, and threats of wreaking physical
justice upon the burly ruffians miserable
carcass were freely INDUCED in. Lally's
habit of playing the bully upon every pos
sible occasion his generally. dissolute hab-
its of life and his Unborn rufflanism, have
tended to make him dreaded by the meek,
and despised by all his respectable Irish
fellow citizens, among whom, at one time,
he was populvr. II he returns to the city
it Is probable that it will be made warm
for him as it should be.

The escape of the prisoners from the
city Jail Monday night should urge the city
council to speedy commencement OF a
new city Jail. There is nothing of which
this city stands in greater need at the pres.
ent time nothing of which any city, in the
present state of society in general, stands
in greater need-than good Jail. 1t is as
necessary as is good police court and an
efficient police force. In the present state
of Cairo's Jail it is matter for surprise that
there are not more Jail deliveries, more
bloody rows within the walls of the
single cell, more deadly assaults upon
the jailer. With the present Jail the affair
Of Monday night could be an every weeks
occurrence; there is no possible way in
which it could be prevented by the jailer,
unless he kept an armed body guard with
him whenever he opened the jail door. AZ
soon as the cell door is thrown open the
jailer confronts, sngly and alone, the en-
tire gang of desperate men in single
dark room, into which it would be fool
hardness to enter. Even though there
were but two prisoners in the room (and
there are nearly slweys more, the jailer
could be taken at disadvantage and the
prisoners could, by a little vigorous action,
make good their escape. On Monday night

tss2--sWEAR OFF.

at is nevsr too late to do good and
though the day upon which good resolu
tons are usually made has passed, we copy
the following ADVICE from the Blooming
ton Bulletin and commend it to the readers
of THE CAIRO BULLETIN as worthy Of being
followed by them;
ut is New Year morning, 1882, and q
mighty good time to swear of.
There are several things that ought to be
sworn square off this morning, and the Bull
letin rises, in that evangelical spirit which
is its most distinguishing trait, to mention
afew of them.
The politicians ought to swear of lying
TO each other and to the people. Do these
gentlemen know that the year 1882 dawns
upon fifty millions of American people who
have less respect for and less confidence in
professional politicians than any people
ever had for or in any class of menu t is
gospel fact, The only way for the poll
tician therefore to save himself and his call
ing is to quit lying, cultivate the truth, and
give the people rest. There are two or
three hundred thousand of thensin office,
and three times as many wanting office,
and all of them almost all Of them--will-
ing to lie at least little to keep or get
Office. Some Of them are democrats; most
of them arc republicans; and all Of them
ought to swear off,
The drinking man the drunkard--ought
to swear oif-and stick lie doubtless hos
sworn of before, but he didn't stick. She
will be much happier tonight If you will
she, your patient, pale and care-worn
wife, And they, the littlo oncs--thcy will
know that, somehow or other, an infinite
change for the better has come over the
household, and that new light is burning
on the household altar; and, somehow or
other, they will catch the mothers JOY and
be happy, too. Quit 1t. Swear right of.
And stick--stck for the whole Of 1884,"
