Prof Browne has shown himself capable, so says Prof. Cardozo and so far as his moral character 1s con- cerned. we kuow and go do the peo- ple of this community that he is a gentleman of intellectual and high moral standing iu this country. Prof Brown has sent a letter to the board of school trustees de- manding an investigation of the charges made against him by Prof. Cardoza and if true he says, he is av unfit person for the position, he holds, in the schools of this District. We shall publish aletter from Prof. Brown next week showing why be sent bis charges to Supt. Cook and show- ing that his criticism is just. It will be seen that. Prof. Browne made no personal attuck on Prof. Card. z1, but, merely criticised his methods of conducting our High School. In jussice to Prof. Brown we must say that he never sought the publication of his let ter, which appeared inthe Brx of last week, nor did we know tnat he had filed charges against Prof. Vardozo, until we were so informed by that gentleman. DEATHLESS THREATS. Everyday the Brg man hears such expressions as thie: “You had better not put anything in that old paper about me.” There is vo terror Cassius, in your threats; they pass me by as the idle winds which 1 respect not. Thus spake Brutus, Thus speaks the Bez. The Bex is incorrigible. It knows uo such word as fear. It fears nothing. Kings nor Principalities, It is for the right. It bas attempted to expose wrong, error and indeeeney. It winks at no malpractiee. It is conscious that th’s outspokeu policy is too tigid tor Washington society. To live here one must learn how to coneeal wrong and ha is here ‘to defend the right and decry the wrong. Let wrong doers beware. What is particular riditulous about these threats is thay they invariably come from persons of loose character. Those who tear to have their actions known or their whereabouts re- vealed. No honest man or wo- man fears a newspaper. No hon- est persons make u threat because he is conscions that vile things are only said about violent persone. Some tnmes a good person gets in bad company and has mean things said about him, but usually ouly the bad is spoken of the bad. The Bre has never made a statement that did not contain the truth. There issome truth ic all it says. ‘The whole truth usually follows by the very persons who attempt to disprove those reports. Contention with the Bre means brnises and scars, On all the great moral and econ mic questions before the people these two parties have been found a: variance. The poli- cies which have made our coun- try what itis and lifted it to its present high standing have been the outgrowth of republicanism. Let the new voter think and no one need fear his conclusions. OUR NORMAL SCHOOL TEACHER. We understand that tne charges against Miss Lucy Moten were made on personal grounds; that superintendent Cook didn’t agree with Mr W. A, Stewart, the author of the charges, but to the coutrary he complemented Miss Moten for her excellency in teach- ing. We know Miss Moten to be a lady of refinement and educa- tion, of whom the citizens of Weshington are proud and any reflection on her honesty and in- tegrity in her official position does not receive the approval of sup- erintendent Cook or the board of school trustees. CHEROKEE FREED MEN. Freedmen or no treedmen Rep- | resentative Owen is right in op-~ posing the Cherokee Freedmen bill, when there ie a bargain be tween the democratic party and ihe purties who were interested in the Indianapolis conference. Mr. Owen ia not opposed to the-Freed- -| greet Mr. Blaine on the steamer +] Sloan. Lever witnessed, men, but he is opposed to the great scheme or bargain entered into and he will find thousands of supporters among the negroes to back him. Turner of course wanted to get his bill passed, hence the Indian- apolis conference. He didn’t think at the time, that the repub- liceans would catch on to his scheme before the passage of tbe bill, It isa cold day when a re- publican politician gets left. HUW HE WAS GREETED. NEW YORK IN A BLAZE. THE PROCESSION, COL. PERRY CARSON AND ANDREW GLEASON MEET THE DISTINGUISH- ED STATESMAN. ‘HELLO PERRY.” (Special Correspondence.) New York, Aug. 13, ’88.--The name of Hon. James @G. Blaine was on every tongue in the State of New York last week. Thou- sands of people were here to greet one of the most distinguished citizens of the age. The recep- tion committee accompanied by several thousand strangers left on steamers to meet Mr. Blaine and notwithstanding two days disap- pointment the third day was A DAY OF JOY. Mr. Blaine arrived, but the evening prior to hisarrival one of the largest processions, in the political history of the conutry took place. Col. Perry H. Carson and Andrew Gleason were the centre of attraction. Col. Car- son was greeted and honored everywhere be went. He was es- corted to Mr. Blaines rsception rooms in the 5th avenue hotel by Mr. Wm. Walter Phelps. Mr. Blaine, on seeing Col. Carson, ex- tended an enthusiastic greeting, and remarked, ‘Hello Perry, I am glad to see you.” The manner in which Col. Carson wes greeted by Mr. Blaine caused everyon? present to look with amazement. Mr. Gleason was the first man to Mr, Blaine said, when he was about to be introduced, that he needed no introduction to Mr. —~Tre—iomniug of Mr. Blaines’ arrival Mr. Marcellus West got left, and detirmined not* to be outdone, he and two other gentlemen hired a yacht and over- took the Steamer Sloan, before it had reached Staten Island. THE PROCESSION on Tuesday night was the largest Many a distin- guished person occupied seats on the grand stand among whom were Col. Fred Grant, Uol. W. W. Dudley, Hon. Wm. Walter Phelps, Col. P. IH. Carson, An- drew Gleason and others. Al- though the procession took place on the evening previous to Mr. Blaines arrival, as maby more grected him on Friday evening before the balcony of the 5th ave. Hotel where he delivered an ad- dress. The very appearence of Mr. Blaine in New York electri- fied the city and no negro was more honored and respected than the tall black oak of the city of magnificent distances, Col. Car~ son. Both Ca:son and Gleason won a host offriends, The fol- lowing WELCOME ADDRESS was delivered to Mr. Mr, Blaines’ reply: Mr. Bartlett, president of the New York Republican Club, de- livered the address of wele »me, in which he spoke of the disappoint- ment occasioned by the steamer’s late arrival and referred briefly to the opening of the campaign, vlos- ing as follows: In this emergency, sir, the Ke- publican party looks to you as its jeading champion in debate in the great battle between protection and free trade now in progress. With the banner of Harrison and Blaine and bered in this manuer by you and the assembled gentlemen. It isa scene I shall never forget- It is an occasion which I assure you I appreciate from the depths of my heart. It is shadowed only by the sad event which greeted us a3 the first piece of American news we heard—the death of Gen. Sheridan, a man who was above party and stood for the union of the States [Shouts of “Guvod.”] With that exception] my arriva! upon my native shore was anat- tended by anything but joy and happiness. The campaign on which you are about to enter should be prefaced, if that were possible, by every voter in the United States. Seeing what I have seen [Good, good”] and hearing what I bave heard during the last year [applause] the pro- gress of the campaign in the United States is viewed from the European standpoint with an in- terest as profound as it is in the United States. It is the opp rta- nity of England. It is the long wisned for the long looked for oceasion upon which the chexper labor and the cheaper fabrics of the old world expect to invade the new aud lower the wages of Amer-~ ican workingmen to the Ear: pean standard. [Great applause.] It is not a contest of capital against capital; it is not a coute-t of parti- san against partisin. It is much higher than either of these. It transcends all party motives. [Ap- plause.] Whether the great mass ot American citizens who earn their bread by the sweat of their brow shall be seriously reduced in their emolument from day to day [applause,}that is the whole pith and moment of this question. Anything that diverts the ques- tion from that single point is a weakening of the campaign. [ Ap- plause and cries of “good”] Isay here, as I hope to say with much more elaboration [loud cheering and cries of “that’s what we want”]—I say here that the wag- es of tue American laborer cannot be reduced except with the con- sent and the votes of she American laborer himself. ‘The appeal hes to him. It comes to his door and asks him whether, with the great “power ofthe -fraxchivo and the great majority he p.ssesses in his own hands he is willing tor b'm- self and his aesociates, his children and his children’s children to take that fatal step, at the bidding of an American Congress and an Amer‘cao President who are gov- erned by that element which sought to destroy chis nation. But gentlemen, it is not a time for a political speech. My neart is too full to en‘er at this time on lengthened argument. In this moment of weicome and joy, getting home to old scenes and old frieuds I must ve allowed to enjoy p'easant emotions of the occasion. I can only edd my fervent thanks to each and every member of the cluband to all my friends for the generous and joy- ous welcome they have tendered to me in the Harbor of New Lork. While Mr, Blaine was speaking the cabin w:s pa-ked to its utmost limits and heads were thrust in through the windows from the deck without, eager to hear every word spoken. ‘The greatest en- thusiasm prevailed and every point made was; quickly seiz d and cheered. An outburst of cheering followed the conclusion of the briet speech. Mr. Blaine was escorted to the ladies’ saloon, where he received » number ot his friends. Ina litt'e while he ascended to the saloon on the up- per deck, where he received the congratulations of all, having « pleasart word for all who greeted him. While there he was banded an address by Edward Fitzwilliam of Boston, representing the Workingmen’s Frotective Union of Massachusetts. He was presented with an ad- dress by Murat Halstead, repre- Morton full high advanced, when you lead on to victory, the Repnb- lican hosts will follow. ‘One blast upon your bugle horn were worth # thousand men.” Again sir, we bid you welcome to your native land. MR. BLAINE’S RESPONSE. Mr. Blaine said in reply: Mr. PRESIDENT AND GENTLEMEN OF THE RéPuBLIcCAN CLUB AND Feutow Citizens; To enable you to appreciate this welcome each and every one of you should be ubsent from home. and country for the long period of fourteen months. Iam sure you can have little conception of the great grat- ification of that instant when I saw the shores of the great Re- public. I cannot tell you how deeply grateful I am to be remem- senting the Young Meu’s Blaine Club of Cincinnati THE KNIGHT’S INTENTION As to what part he would take in the campaign, Mr. Blaine said he would say nothing about it at present. He did uot think he would go outside Ihe State of Maine until after the State election there on the second Monday in September. When asked about bis health, be at first suid he was perfectly well and then added, laughingly. *That’s a question I haveu’t answered in three years.” To a question a3 to the political aspect his reply was that he did uot care to say anything then fur- |. ther, than he had said speech. in his Subseribe to the Bee. —— é r —_ so ND Rooms 2% « ov Carpen'er pay.
