The daily Cairo bulletin. (Cairo, Ill.) 1878-1???, 1882-09-10

BY the end OF this week the new brick
factory of Messrs. Coleman & Mcclure will
have completed kiln of brick to the num-
Der of about one hundred and twenty
thousand. The factory has been in opera
ton all the time, but the work has been to
some extent experimental. 1t has done
very satisfactory work and the great de-
mand for brick in the city, both present and
prospective, has determined Messrs. Cole
man Il Mcclure to increase the capacity of
their machinery after this week.
Mr.. Jacob Klincs intended artesian
well is still in an uncertain state. 1t is
now down about two hundred and nine
feet and is still in layer of white sand and
fine gravel. Work on it was stopped about
ten days ago because Of unfayorable
weather, but will be resumed this week.
Mr.. Gerou,d seems to be determined TO
carry ont his part of the contract in spite OF
the many unforeseen obstacles. The great
est trouble now is, that after every few
inches OF driving down, the pipe IS filled
for upwards Of fifty feet from below with
the fine sand through which it passes, and
which must be pumped out every time be-
fore the work of driving can be continued.

"A rivalry that unfortunately may
cause bitter feeling has sprung up be-
tween the Comique band and the new
band being organized by Prof St0rer. In
answer to some covert threats made by
the Argus, Prof. Goss desires us to say that
the Comique band will hereafter play as it
has heretofore played, only such simple
pieces of music as every juvenile band of
any county town usually plays; that he
will introduce no clarionets and piccalloes
in his band but retain the little old E
flats, and that the band will be off for
engagements at any time at reasonable
rates, The Prof. is very modest in his
claims. The music which under his able
tuition, the Comique band has been able to
furnish the Cairo public in the past was
considered good enough for all who heard
it, and they will be entirely satisfied with
it in the future, call it by what name he
will.
Those Republicans who were active ia
opposition to Captain Thomas during the
late primaries in this city feel more than
ever dissatisfied with the captain now.
And they have good cause 10 feel so. The
captain has treated them very unkindly, he
has sighted, snubbed, he has insulted
them upon every occasion of his visit
here since he has been nominated. He
has been and passed through
here number of times, and
invariably before he came he mott
fed the internal revenue officer, here Of
his intended visit. Aud when he arrived,
he visited the Custom House and the
post Office, had private consultation, and
then returned to The Halliday and left
the city without even giving one of his
Republican opponents in the "late unpleas-
antness" glance Of recognition. He has
kept himself aoof from his whilom partisan
opponents and has subjected them to q
neglect that amounted to actual contempt

these few was what may be
called Damron Republican
Evidently Mr. Thomas has unbounded
faith in the ability of his official friend,
here, the party machine of the district, tc
carry out their promise to elect him il
spite of the opposition manifested in the
convention which nominated him. Having
nominated him, the Captain thinks the
machine can also, and will, and must, elect
him. He has unbounded faith in
the power of the machine to
enforce harmony, to suppress opposition,
