We Justify Mayor Winter in his action
In the Hcno case, for her ca was henl
ous. The charge against her was Keep,
lng a house of ill fame, but the oflense
was something else and so bad that It
could not be decently put Into a charge.
If her only offense had Wen the charge
made against her, 3tayor Winter would,
we are Infomed, have ken logical ami
have discharged her, ugly and worn out
as she Is. He stands by the UrcNlon of
the people ot Cairo, and will not permit
any of the unfortunate tobe Haed or im
prisoned during his term of olllcc. so
long as they shall comport themselves In
decencjv v'HeWIll, stand between them
and the persecutions of the olllccn,of the
law as the teople desire him to do, but
women guilty of the oflense of th Hcno
must ufler. Mayor Winter will not
stand by theim
TUAT ri.ilrl w . i nr.
We stated yesterday llfat "John McXuIfy
arrested the unfortunates the Inmates of
houses of III fame who went ilNoharp-d
by Mayor Winter from lhuenliihonu ilu
rlngthc cslon of the grand Jury. Mr.
McXulty was present iw nsnoct.itorat the
trial, but he did not arrest the women.
They were arrested by nobody. They
heard that otllivrs were siunmoulnir wit
nesses against them, and that they were
likely to. be Indicted by the grand jury,
and took legal advice. Helng Intormcfl
that they could not be tried and punished
twice for the same eflense, u u body they
leporteil at 'he police olllee, gave them
selves up on the charge of U-lng Inmates
ot houses or 111 fame, weretried, lined and
Imprisoned. Mayor Winter, after they
hail been In the calaboose a few hours, re
leased them. The grand-jurors Investi
gated the matter, and came to l -.n.l n.
slon that the nlrls had not ahead of them
and dropped the matter. That Is the
whole of It;
iiEri'ifi7
l lie Council refused to mince the
llijiior license from $200 a year to $100 in
face of the tact that one of the Issues on
which Mayor Winter was elected, was
low liquor license. Cairo decided at the
ballot-box that Mayor Wood's adminis
tration, did wrong when It, raised the
llceusi! trfSaOOi We. have too long fil
tered from tlic evil of dear drinks. It l,
In the estimation ot our jieojik', better
that drinks should ho luniMied to the
poor of theelty at low llgiues than that
the property-holders should pay low
taxes. Property I- n luxury; a man
need not have a house and lot
If he does not wish ; but drink- are a ne
cessity, and therefore no burden i-hould
De put upon (lie seller the tendency of
which is to make liquor hlgli-prlced. The
man who sells calico, that any person
can do without, pays only $10 a year;
but the man who sells liquor, that every
body must have, Is required to pay the
enormous sum of $200 ! rids Is an out

The following, from the Mcmnhi. .l.

the people of Cairo:

rich and poor, teel that It I- his interest
as well as In-duty to Improve tlieeilv,
and a new state of things will be exhib
ited. If every man looks only to his owu
business, w hetlier It he great or small,
the city will dwindle Intocomparallve in
significance. We cannot stand still we
must either advance or retrogade. Which
shall It be? We must remember that
money expended tor works ol public util
ity add to each man's Individual wealth.
We often hear that Cairo Is bound to

needs, but our business men the men
