to something neat and nice. \\c
hope said little bird is not mistaken
Have you noticed the improve
ments going on in a number of our
store fronts? Progress of this kind
is what keeps a town wide awake
and on the map.
We are glad to report that Cairo
is to have the Thursday half holi

The Democrats| will nominate
Wilson at St. Louis and the coun
try will elect him to the presidency

better program than electing Wil

Peace, Prosperity and Prepared,
ness, but no one has yet mentioned
it,
The European war drags its slow
and terrible length along, and yet
there are those who would criticise
the powers that bo at Washington
for doing everything honorable to
keep our men out of the fearful
conflict.
Why not urge our city fathers to
take steps to create a street com
mission whose business it shall be
to look after the permanent welfare
of our streets. Some of our streets
will some day have to be widened.
With a little cooperation from the
citizens, the right kind of a com
mission could arrange for these to
be widened much more easily now
than if the matter is delayed a few
more years. '
County Commissioners’ Proceed
ings crowded out our editorial stuff
this week. We will count on our
readers to be patient.
We feel that our merchants and
business men arc to be commended
for their action in deciding to close
for a half holiday on Thursdays.
You are only one it is true but you
are one. -
What Started The Fight
O’Honlihan called McGinnis
liar and was knocked down by
McGinnis with a monkey wrench;
then Moriarity broke an ax handle
over the head of McGinnis and
was in turn walloped over the coco
with a coupling pin in the hands of
O’Keefe, who at the same time
kicked McDuffie in the short ribs.
Murphy then lauded on O’Keefe
with a spike maul and was himself
batted in the snoot by Kelly with
a shillaleh.
Then the FIGHT Started—and
Wc LEFT.
