If Mr. Cieveland is anxious to show how much he cares for the colored people, we would suggest that be appoint a representative colored man to some position more important than any to which former republicen admin- istrations appointed them. Asa matter of fact, not a represen~ tative colored man has been rec- ognized outside of positions that have been filled by colored men under republican administrations. Ina few days a new city Poat- master will be appointed to suc— ceed Mr. Conger. s It is said that Mr. Conger has given the colored people greater recognition than all previous city Postmasters. Is that so? We No 313 Seventh St N W Was D best one for an tleftand he is Mr. know the time when there were at least ten colored letter carriers. Out of those there is but one John W.

The lurly arguments of those who assume other side fall like ten pins if you strike the foremost with sufficient force. I assert that every student of eight or ten years of experience has during that time acquired unconsciously sufficient understanding both as to discipi- line and instruction as would ena- ble him to take charge of, and conduct successfully any school of alate character ifhe has within him the elements of a teacher. The teacher as a professional ! Nonsense. A whole nation has been educated without ever dreaming of such a thing, It remains to my own time for this discovery. In the days of reading, writing and arithmetic, teaching was merely a stepping stone to some higher ac- tivity. So much so that ninety per cent of our public men have been school teachers. The professional spirit has seiged everything here of late. The expressman is a pro- fession in his way. Everybody seems to wrap himself in a cloak of egotism and strut about in digni- fied splendor and boast of his pro <> THEY SAY THAT, When Trotters become hide bound they are given copperas. Copperas is a good remedy for a Trotter that is suffering from offi- cial weakness. Dan Chew, who is anthority on deeds in the Recorder’s office, should be made Comparer. Four or five salaried officials is no small thing in a Recorder’s of- fice. When Lamar is transférred to the Supreme Court bench a few It has been his honesty and industry. that has kept him in his present position. Other men have been promoted over him who are less competent. We have no fault to find with Mr. Conger, we believe him to be a friend to our people and the best Post- master the city has ever had- He has certainly improved the system. The SCHOOL BOARD met last Tuesday evening and made the appointment of teach— ers. There were but a few changes. In the High School there are two new appointments. Miss Wilder succeeds Miss Bruce in the Normal School as an assist- ant to Miss Lucy Moten, Dr, Francis Gregory and others tried hard to secure Miss Moten the salary of which she is entitled. There was not a trustee who made any 0 jections, but to the contrary they did all in their power for her, but under the law they could do‘no more than what was done. Our contempora~ ry is uneasy about Mr. Cardo- fessional attainments. Toreturn tothe thought. The wolfish howl about experience grows out of the greediness for place. All our teachers in this gity have been and are continually being appointed on the Tuesday evening after their commencement. Whence pray tellme did they get their experience? That is wonder- ful. Yet we have good able teach- ers. Every good student will make a good.teacher if he has the ability toimpart and this he cannot get by study. Itis not to be found in books. It is innate. So it seems to me that this bat- tering opposition, this subtle and disceptive reasoning is mean and low. No public spirit prompts it. It is like some obstiuate and unru- ly animal half sleep, half awake, standiig on the midde ground be- tween life and death. At one time force can not make him more, at another, he seizes the bit between his teeth and rushes as if to mad- ness. Negro pimps will be transferred with him. qc* = The lady who has made charges against a male principal has re- fused toappear before the special comuittee.

(From the Savannah Tribane.) { A conductor on the “Cannon Ball train” running between Way? cross and Albany, named Tillman, committed a mean and cowardly outrage on his train on the evening of June 23. In the smoking ar which is also known as the “‘nig- ner car” was a sick colored mar, named Lige Graham, occupying a seat for which he had paid, the oiker seat being vacant. A while man entered for a smoke when the conductor ordered the colored man totakea seat alongside of the otber colored passengers in order that the smoker might have the double seat to himself, When the white man had finished his smoke Graham returued to bis seat, when the conductor ordered him out that he might occupy the seat himself; this time he remonstrated and re- fused to go, when the conductor violently assaulted him and jerked him from the seat throwing his hand to his rear as it to draw a weapon. Thisis a new and con- temptible kind of an outrage and the perpetrator should be made to suffer for his conduct by the prop- er authorities.
