Of abode under the new stock ordinance,
and-well, after mature deliberatiOn, we are
forced to the conclusion that there is no
cure for the evils appertaining unto a good,
healthy hog, save in Punishment or in
death. Hogs and harmony may be posi-

publican party, and who earnestly desire n
reform in the Federal Administration, the
young reform Governor of New York will
be most acceptable candidate. And

now lies in human power to do the crime Of

man once elected Vice President and rob

Alderman Woodward, as Chairman of
the Board Of Health, Is giving much attcn-
ton to the sanitary condition Of the city.
| Regular meetings Of the Health Officer and
assistants are held every week at The Coun-
Gil Chamber, over which Alderman Wood
ward prcsides and at which every spot that
! is not in the condition with respect to
health that it should be, is reported by the
officer IN whose ward it is located and
| Chief Health Officer Shutter is given a
memorandum Of its nature and exact loCa-
ton, so that he may take the necessary
steps for its correction. The last meeting
was held We lnesday afternoon and at this
each of the Ward Officers had several bad
places TO report. One Of the worst places
reported was the closet in the Winter
| Block, at the corner of Seventh and Com
mcrcial, which has always been a breeding
place for malaral and other diseases. Or
ders have been given that this closet be
thoroughly disinfeccd and then nailed up
until cold weather, when it may be cleaned
out. Thus the work OF cleaning the city
is systemstzed, and will be thoroughly
and quickly executed; and there is the best
of assurance that within a week or two
Cairo will be among the cleancst cities in
the country.
