The daily Cairo bulletin. (Cairo, Ill.) 1878-1???, 1884-04-09

fell down through the ties onto the incline
track upon which the cradle was running.
He fell through not far from the upper end
of the cradle, where the frame work stands
probably less than foot above the track,
was caught between the frame work and
the road bed of the incline track and rolled
back and forth for about minute, as the
boat backed and moved forward to get the
cradle in just the proper position. 1t seems
that he was not seen to fall through and
when discovered he was nearly dead. He
was taken down to The Halliday where
DR.. Parker attended him. His limbs were
all right and he was not torn up much.
One ear was cut off smooth and he had
sustained an injury of the spine and other
internal injuries which were not believed to
be fatal, however. He had a very narrow
escape from being torn into shreds.
Alderman VIM. McHae is announced
in this issue of THE BULLETIN as candi-
date for reelection to the City Council in
the First ward, next Tuesday. There have
been no men in the City Council who have
been more earnest in the discharge of what
they believed to DO their duties toward
their constituents than Mr.. McHale. Mr..
McHale's record is a very satisfactory one
generally; he has had strong
convictions upon questions OF
public concern, which convictions he has
always defended with much verbal energy,
and has sometimes even show 4 willingness
to defend with physical energy as
well, if need be. He has been
one of the most valuable
men on the Street Committee particularly
and done much good work for the city gen.
orally. The First ward could not find
man who would watch its interests more
closely and be more active inbaving those
Interests conserved.
One of the members of the Iowa Edi-
torial Excursion that passed through this
city short time ago, writing an account
of the trip in his paper, at little town
called Oskaloosa, hasn't word of praise
for anything he SAW below Centralis. At
Centralia the party was received in good
style by the citizens, and this little fattery
secured to that city favorable sentence or
two. But below Centralia this little man 8
little mind could ses nothing that deserved
more than contemptuous fling. 1t is
probable that there were in the party but
few such carping misanthropes, or the party
must have been a very sick one when they
got home. In four or FIVE line notice of
Cairo, in which, one would naturally con
clude, the writer would record the most
important matters impressed upon his mind
during his stay here, he informs the public
that Cairo has about $4,000 people," and
that hogs, cows, horses, sheep and geese
are permitted to run at large in the streets
of the CITY,"
The suggestion of the Chicago Times,
that Judge Bross, of this city, be nominated
by the Democrats of the state as their can
didate for Lieutenant Governor, will meet
with the heartiest favor in this end of the
State and wherever else the Judge is
known. Judge Bross is man of sterling
character, who has served the people here
for years In various capacities to the entire
satisfaction of all and retired to private
lite voluntarily and against the wishes of
his constituents generally. He is a repre-
sentative German American citizen, with
enough of the best kind of common sense
for several ordinary men. He stands high
in the order of Odd Fellows and his warm
personal friends are scattered by thousands
throughout the State. He would be
strong man on the stump also where he
would challenge the respect of all by forci-
bic little talks which he knows SO we'll how
to make. Judge Bross would carry the
German vote of the State for the Demo-
Gratis if anybody could and that would in.
sure Democratic success in the state Har.
rison and Bross would sweep the State.
