THE CITIZEN’S COMMITTEE AND ITS _SELF-CONSTITUTED AUTHORITY. OUR PUBLIC SCHOULS. THE COL~ ORED PEOPLE IN THE DISTRICT. THE NEGRO LEAGUE, While it is true that Mr. James G. Blaine was defeated for the presidency, and while he has the entire opposition ofthe colored people on account of his oppusi- tion to the force bill, he is one ot the most popular Americans a brvad. If it is his intention to be a candidate for renomination on the republican presidential ticket, he n.ust assure the Negro that it is his intention to treat them fairly and see that the American laws are justly executed. Everywhere he goes he is received with honor and dignity. The Irish people appreciate him, and if the repub— lican convention were held to-day we are of the opinion, that he would be nominated and elected. Asa matter of fact Mr. Blaine is not wanted by the American peo- ple. THE PRESIDENT and the Grand Army of the Re- public are having a very lively time. Whether the President is a bigger man than the G@. A. R, as an organization, we are unable to state, but this much we do know that the President made it known to that organization that the dig- nity of the executive must bo re- spectea. The self-constituted CITIZENS COMMITTEE with its self-constituted autbority, composed ofall white men with one or two exceptions, will find out that the people will not toler. ate their foolish measures. The popular demand of THE PEOPLE is the appointment of Dr. John R. Francis in the 7th school division. The removal of Mr. Henry John- son from the school board is de- ; manded by the people as a neces. sity, for the better government of our schools and protection to our young lady teachers. We have plenty of good material in the city from which the Commiession. erscan select. With Dr. Fran- cis in the 7th school division, Prof, Gregory in the 8th and some other good man in the 6th, the Commissioners will have no more trouble with our colored public schools. The colored High school in leas than two years will be on the same basis with the white. This NEGRO LEAGUE which seems to worry the wild brain ot editor Fortune of the Freeman, is no new idea. We favor the leagne but not under the vucillating leader-hip of Mr. Fortune. He should remember that he has opposed every meas- ure that has been brought forth to consolidate the Negro, but be- cause some of us oppose his spec ulating sch-me he says it 1s per- sonal abuse, Be it so, we cure not what he says or thinks. A Negroleague with Mr. Fortune at the head ot it, will be a failure. The best colored men in the coun- try are opposed to it under the leadership of Mr, Fortune. In his Iast weeks Freeman he at- tempts to be funny. We desire toask Mr, Fortune, whether he did not ask us to endorse his league? And yet he says the a- buse and opposition of some men tend to advance his cause. Why did he ask us to do that which, in bis opiaion, will not aid him? We suppore Mr. Fortune is well acquainted with the story en- titled, “The Fox/and the Grapes ?” A league with Fortune at the head! Why in ’88 the Negro would be sold out, soul and body tothe highest bidder. Let Mr. Fortune turn his attention to the dives of New York, and every other Negro will look out for his own interest and that of his neigh- bor. The COLORED PEOPLE in this city are doing well consid- ering the fact, that they receive but a very little support from the white people. There are but two clothing houses in the city that bayethe audacity to employ cul ored salesman. Mr. Smith, at 924, 7th st.,n w., and Robinson, on the avenue. Mr. Smith knows uo man by his color.

WASHINGTON, D. ©, SATURDAY, JULY 16, 1887. a ae i ae the same way, It was a Popular rumor that certain ladies were o- bliged to stay in the woods all night to preserve their lives, be cause they spent the greater por— tion of the day in the woods with other women’s husbands. To a great degree white men do not wield much sway in this city over colored girls. To their honor be it said. Why or how the girls de- part from this elegant reputation during vacation is us mysterious as woman herself. This is one side of the picture, and it is to be regretted that the other side is so small. Some of our girls never drop from that high standard of morality which is theirs every where, whether they go to West River or Loudon and its vicini- ‘ies or elsewhere, They are al- ways the same, one and unchange- able. It is to be hoped that care will be used by our city girls even when among total strangers. THEY SAY THAT, colored people in this city than any white man we know, When the race finds such men as he it is no more than right that he should be supported. We appeal to the colored people in this city to patronize this man. Remem- ber that our population is 80,000, and if Mr. Smith is given one third of their support it would en- able him to employ 50 instead of one colored salesman, We know Mr. Smith well enough to say on our own responsibility, that he would employ more colored sales- men. Such men are hard to find and when we find them they should be encouraged. THEY ARE GOING AWAY, As the summer wears off the many females of our city are with- drawing themselves for pleasant sojourns to different parts of the country. Some solely forthe pur- pose of recreation, retire to quiet villages or sea shores where gayety isastranger. Others, feeling that they are among strangers and out from beneath the critic’s eye, sur- render themselves to revelry aud downright yulgarism. So many noxious deeds have been commit- ted that were the parties contront- ed with them in the midst of their friends, they would recoil in unut- terable dismay. False‘ virtues may be concealed for a time, but they often creep out unawares. Two or three sum- mers ago, several of our represen- tative ladies, (school te chere,) were residing at West River. Weat River, is a lonely, low and dreary place, with nothing more beautiful to look upon than long legged mosquitoes. A certain de- gree of vivacity under such con- ditions, even more than would be tolerated in the city, could pass unnoticed. But sleeping in ham- mocks, with country lads until the Johnson got left on the school matter. ‘His hunting propensities have at last come to an end, Since El!is Brown has nothing against him, as Johuson thought there would be, he is reap- pointed. People whose loye it is to des-~ troy the usefulness of females, should be made to step down and out. Othello’s Iago was caught in a trap on account of his treachery, what can be said ot the modern publie school Iago? If the Commissioners want peace and karmony in the public schools, Henry Johnson should be removed. The people will hold a meetiag and request the removal of John- son. The weather is hot, so is the school question. Capt. W. P. Gray is the hand- somest tonsorial artist in the city. Roy is the fattest bar-tender on Pa, avenue. He is the prettiest man on the avenue, and has the finest figure of any man in town. Roy claims the power to win the affections of any young lady in the city. Fred Dyson will be there when the geueral roll is called. Roy will be there also with hot skotch and mint julips. Abe Myers can boast of his shape, but the girls say he will be caught atter a while: Perhaps Frank Boston can tell “wee small hours,” wading in brooks with no clothes on save a gossamer, in the.presence of men ought to cause a blush upon the face of every good woman by its very recital. One occasion is particularly im- pressive: it was a midnight dance atthe house of a young man, whose wife had left the house in his charge. The young man had been apprise of the city girls com~ ing and sent out and procured a small keg of beer, wine and mus- ic, which mixed with bacchalau- reate screams made glad the hearts of the very frogs, whose croakings had ceased on account of the lateness of the night. They bad a good time they say, danc- ing the can~can, highland-sling, jigs and spanish whirls, which were the order of dancing. A} more disgraceful affair could not be looked for anywhere, else in the very precints of prostitution. | One young lady left her rabbers | there and the young man’s wife | preserved them for her, but from | all accounts she did not come for them. i] you something about it. Frank has a first elass turn out, and is a regular masher. He knows how to treat ladies, although the day has been fixed. Abes day is not in this city. The Venus of his eye isin Albany, Never believe what men tell you, although they be school offi- cials. All school officials are not dis- honest. More will be known in a few days. Some men don’t know when they are doing well. A man once dug a pit for some one else, but he soon found him- self into it. When you dig pits tor others always be sure.that they are thrown into it before you jubelee. Pompey once prepared a feast in anticipation of his victory over Caesar, but it turned out that the latter enjoyed the feast.
