Pubs el eve-y northwest, Wash ntéred at the Post Office at Washington D.C., as Second Class m.il matter, HON. WM. E CHANDLER. The reclection of Mr. Chandler to succeed himself iu the Senate of tbe United States, eeerns now quite’probable, Ilis presence «in the upper houee is a necessity. He is one of the few republicans in this country who dares to give ut teretice to his real sentiments up. on those questions that aff-ct the fature prosperity and well being of the negro. The rebel wing of the democretic party in the senate chamber would like to see him de- teated because he has proved to be a thorn in the side of the demo- eratic party. If the gentlemanly bullies in broadcloth dared to they would strike him dowo as Pres- ton Brooks the would be aesasin ot Chas. Sumner did that beloved and honored Statesman, The white man in public position who cham- pions the cause of the negro, makes inveterate enemies of the bloody representative in Congress who speak and act fur the democratic party north. Mr. Chandler has introduced certain measures in the senate which are in themselves of vital importance to the entire coutry. He is neeled in the sen- ate to push his bill regulating elec- tions a: the South and to place the cause of the persecuted and bull dozed white and black men of the South. New Hampshire can send no man to the senate who will be more acceptable who will work more arsidiously who will represent the s‘ate more credita— bly than Hon. Wm. Chandler. Kentucky wouid be disappointed should he be returned, and be will be and the Southern representa~ tives, generally would not feel quite as happy a8 they would if be is defeated. We are however, glad to be able to say that the indica. tions, point to his triumphant _ ree- lection and that the pugilis‘ic prowess of Keutuckys Jani or Sen- ator ie largely responsible for the favorable turn which afiairs have taken politically amung the gran- ite_bills of Nuw Hampenire. The Northern people do not ad- mire thugs and bulhes. The day ot the sluve driver and overseer breed of statesman weut by some f years ago, but there is still in our 4 midst a tew of that class who have i not quite realized the truth of modern history as it relates to our : times, and wh» on occasion ° give i exhibitious of their 1 lantation mgnners and customs On the floor ot Congress. That senator Chand- ler is a good man is evidenced by the amount cf demccratic abuse and vetuperation heaped vupon him wherever be has dared to invade its charvel house end «x- pose the bones of its victims to the geze of the American people. During the text four years we eball need a few courageous men in the National Legislature to help solve the white mans prob- lem (ie) negro question. Senator Chandier we feel confident will be one of them, and when this probs lem is solved, if ever, we may truth- tully quote the words of that prophetic poet “Bob! y Burns” who wrotc: Then Jet us pray that come it may As come it will for a’ that, ‘That seuse and worth oe’r all the earth May bear the gree and a’ that, Fora’ that aud a’ that, Our toils obecure and a’ that, The rank is but the guineas stamp The man the gowd for a’ that. ee — DESERVING REPUBLICANS. Everywhere we can see black and white republicans springing up like mushrooms. These repub- licans could not be seen or heard of during democratic supremacy, ; but now they are seen on every 4 street corner and in every de- partment ander the government. ‘Lo speek the truth, the men who kept the republican party alive in this city, when no black or white republican would show his head, were men-whe should receive rec- ognition under. this sdmuuistra- tion. We are confronted daily by men who hafe shouted them~ selvcé almost to death- over the victory of the republican party, but long before the election we could see but a very few men \ i BEE.) doing anything to further repub- lican success. *. The Republican National Leag- ue, the District League, of which Hon;A..M. Olapp™is chairman. The Bre aad Adsocate pub- lished in this city in the inter- est of the people, were doing all they could to mould popular seue timent in the interest of the repub- lican party, while the National Echo, a negro democratic paper, aud that thing called the Nationv/ Times, of which Jack Clemmons was editor,anda laborer in the Interior Department, abused col- ored republicans for their opin- ions. This man Clemmons has made himeelf. one’ of the most obnoxious of the negro democrats and the sooner his place is given to some good colored republican the better we shall be satisfied. We desire to say to the Secre- tary ot the Interior, Mr. Noble, that Jack Clemmons is detestable to all decent republicans and Gen. Robert Smalls, to whose state he is credited, should demand his im- mediate removal. Every offensive negro democrat should go the Same way negro republicans were removed. Let deserving repub- licans be appointed to succeed offensive negro democrats. This same Jack Clemmons wes one of the prime movers in the late Indianapolis democratic eonven- tion. He made himself very of- fensive as a delegate. Clemmons must go. He declared Thurman, the democratic nominee for vice president, and Wade Hampton to be patriots. Wade Hampton acted very much likea patriot in bis treatment to the negros uf his state, SOUTHERN REPUBLICANS, The question is now what rec- ognition will southern colored re~ publicaus receive at the hands of the adminstration? Every white man more or less in the south, is a republican. Long before the elec- tion a very few of them cuuld be found, but the loyal black man could be seen and heard in every hut and on every corner advovat- ing the election of Harrieon and Morton. Now it comes to pass that theso called white republicans want all the offices, We hope that the President will see to it that coloured republicans receive a liberal. recognition, We don’t ask the appointment of in- competent men, butwe do ask that such men ss J. 1. Devaux of Savannah Ga. E. F. Hor: of Chattenooga, Tenn., Stamps - of Louisiana, and other such worthy colored men be given good places. We are told that we should not beseeking offices. We have the same right to expect recogni- tion as any body else. If our votes are wauted, we waut offices from those who were placed in power by our aid. . THE HAYTIEN MISSION, We are info:med that the Hay- tien mission, on aecount of the complicated condition of affairs in that country, will be given te a white man. It was thought that Tennessee would get the appoint- ment, but the gentleman who has been backed for that place hae been informed, he stated, that a white man would be appointed. So faras we are concerned, we would not give two cents for all the foreign missions combined: The United States is large enough for us. There were as many applicants for that mission as there are for the recorder of deeds of the District of Columbia. INDIANA WITHDRAWS. Rev. Dr. J. W. Rando'ph, a weil known and popular citizen of this county, bas withdrawn his Indiaua candidate for the Rec- erder of Deeds for a District man, but he yet insists upon the aj pointment of T. J. Manson for the Liberian Mission. It has been satisfactory settled with che pres- ident and Dr, Randolph in regard to the. Recorder of Deeds and his friends. ~. This will relieve the President of 'a great deal: of. em- barassnient. AN OFFENSIVE DICTATOR, Rosswell A. Fish the offensive dictatof uuder the District _gov- ernment anda member of - the Board of sshool trustees bas been removed by the District Commis- -aioners. Fish is the-same offensive individual who has proven him- gelf.to-be 80 inimical'to the inter-| est of the colored people. Now let the Commissioners remove him from the school board then \the citizens will feel\greatly _re- lieved. No man ubhderthe District government has made himself as rediculous and offensive as this eame Ross Fish. With the exception of about six columns, the last issue of the “Leader,“ was crowded with “patent matter,'* “boiler »plate* trash. Toe Washington, D. C,, “Bee” and Advo- cate areso much better newspapers than the Leader, that we tremble when we think of P-| County, who gave the suffering Robinson would endure in the sheol were be to die ‘t y. You had bet- ter wake your paper a seven-column folio newspiper and not Keepita six column “voiler trash” quarto. The people wish fresh race news, not & quantity of poor paper. —Cleveland Gazette, You are right, Bro. Smith. Tne editors of this pateatback have no influence here. One is depending on bis father for sup- port and the other is waiting until the.old man gets a job. The attempt of these political acrobats to misrepresent editor Smith is the character and reputation of these men. A very few people read the Leader in this city; its circulation is about 10 quires and nomore, It is the personal or- gan of Fred Douglass, used to abuse every respectable colored citizen. The editor of the Cleveland Gazelle is right when. he says that the Bex and Advocate are the best papersin this city. The article never appeared in the Bez 'to our knowledge, except the clipping seat by Mr. Pulies: We know nothing of editor Smith but a gén- tleman and a scholar and a man in whom we have the most im- plicit confidemce, and none but a blackguard,such as may be found in this city, will be guilty of. false- hoods, ‘TT eo The question has been well discussed, does Mr. Douglass rep— resent the negro race? Awong the south, whe are.in the city on business, boldly asserts teat Mr, Douglass is dispised in the South among his people. We know that he doesn’t represent the peo- ple of this city, and if an election was held ‘today he would not re- ceive twenty votes. The negroes of the south regard Bruce and Laugston as their friends; they honor these two men and we hope that the admuinistva tion will listen to them when they make appeals in behalf of the southern people. We understand that the person in charge of the epecification room in the Interior Department at the request of certain white ladies employed there had the two -cel- ored ladies who were appointed to that room traneferred to the mod- el room because these ‘nice dem- ocratic ladies could not’ tolerate their presence. We hope the successor ef the Democrat now in charge of the office, will not emu- late his example. The Washington Daily Press is fast. growing into popular favor. It is'a first class and thorcughly reliable republicam daily and prac tices what it preaches. Rev. Dr. Fitzhugh, late editer of the Chris tian Index, is on the editorial staff of the Press, while Mr. Jos. E. Johneon, “plionog”, a bright and chippy young man of coler, is employed as reporter, He is a first class telegrapher and type writer and will make his mark. We have been informad that Mr. J. W. Thompson, who was appointed chairman of the com- mittee on transposition of the col ored Press Association, will pass every editur to the next National Press conven'ion, which is to will not pass any but editors of newspapers, . Address him at Jacksonville, la. We also desire to eall the at- tention of General Robt. Smalls te one Chance Green, of Butord gratuitious teatimony against Gen’! Smalls in the interest of Elliot. Green is in the Trevsury Department, and it Gen’l Smalls doesn’t do his duty he is not entitled to the respect of the colored peeple of his state. fe Up to date there ure 110 appli- cants tor the Recorder of Deeds ot ths city. Many of whom were- applicants under Clevelands ad- tainstration, posing a8 negro inde pendents. They have all turned si- mon pure republicans since the in auguration of Mr. Harrison. If some of our colered deleza- tions would call on the President some ef the representative men of | meet at Releigh, N. C., free. He // in the interest of some of their own représentatives they would be doing waat was right. « SS . Hon A. M.

THOMAS ALLEN HAS A WEDDING AND A LAW SUIT ON HIS HANDS. Thomas Allen applied yesterday for a marriage license for himself} and Lucinda Green, and on the’ same day he was served with notice that Sarah ©. Anderson had sued him tor breach of prom- ise, with John Ambler Smith as counsel, claiming $5,000 as com-~ pensation for his wrongs. Thomas ig @ young man who moves in the best of colored society, and he has also something of a record for piety, being au elder inthe Rev, Mr. Pritchard’s chureb, in North- east Wasnington, Sarah Anderson tells a story which attributes to him the basest perfidy. About.a year ago he induced ber to leavea comfortable situation in New York aud come to Washington. He wooed and won; she samed the day, but he failed to keep the appointment. She says that by promising to marry ber he secured her consent to an intimacy which should not have existed until after their marriage, Recently she discovered his attachment for Lucinda Green, and finding that he propused to marry her, took the decisive step of filing the breach of promise Buit.— Daily Post. WHAT THEY THINK OF L ra Rev. A.5. Thomas has been called tothe the Third Baptist church, Alexandria Va., Alexandria Va., March 14th 1889 The Third Baptist church of Alexandria held their regular church meeting on the abcve named date, brother Robert Mon- roe, moderator. This is to certify that the Third Baptist church ot Alexanuria Va., voted unanimous ly for Rey. A. 8. Thomas to be their permanent pastor, the call to take effect within 30 days. Done by order of the church. Robart Monroe moderator, W.H. Harris church clerk. Washington D. C. March 19th 1889. Tothe Third Baptist church Alexandria Va., of Dear brethern: I have received the call made in a regular church mesting of yours to become pastor of your church I regret that I cannot accept such a brotherly call and become your Gospel leader, but the ehurch of which [am pustor considers my resignation out of order. The re- luctance that now prevails forces me to decline your invitation. Your bro. in Christ A. 8. Thomas. SS A LETTER OF THANKS, Washington, D. C., March 19, 1889. To the President and Members of the ; Inaugural Welcome Club. Jentlemea:— The Women’s Union Chris- tian Association acknowledge with great satisfaction and grati- tude the donation to them of the Forty-one ($41.00) dollars, the surplus of your handsome and aue ceesful entertainment given on the evening of the sixth instant. They believe that there is no charity in the District of Colum bia more worthy than the Home for friendless girls and children, which they have established on Erie Street, West of 16th Street, extended, and which has been heretofore largely sustained by themselves. They aasure your club that they will apply your generous gift to he very best purpose of said home and they thank you heartily therefor. Very respectfully, (Signed) Amanda F, Waring, President, Caroline Taylor Treasurer. (Signed) Subscribe to the BExz. He wanted the office as a vindi- cation. Clemmons, the negro democratic pimp, must go. It is an easy matter te close a liar’s mouth. : Let honest republicans do their uty. It is about time to give the young men a show. No negro need apply for the Haytian Mission. Things are too complicated for negro diplomats. This is-hard on the American ne- gro. If all of the old leaders are to be provided for, where does the young man come in? L. Murry Brown is to be retn- stated. The Recordership is the topic of conversation now. One will be called and many left. The best man will win. Who will that man be? 1t is hard to tell. The Haytian Mission will go to the Anglo-Saxon. It is hard to find a negro diplo- mat to handle American interest in that country. The John Sherman League is an important factor in American _poli- tics. It is named in honor of a great man. E. F. Horn is one is one of the most popular journalists in this country. He is the Adonis of the negro press. The administration should take care of him. He is a man of ability and in- fluence. Jack Olemmons, the offensive negro democrat must go. Chandler will be returned to the Senate. Rev. W. B. Derrick will make a great speech , April 16th. The Recordership will be settled in a few days. Dan’l Cahill would make a good District Attorney. He isa simon pure republican. He was one of the strongest sup- porters of the party in the District during democratic supremacy. Let all honest republicans stand by Cahill. Give eouthern republicans rec- ognition. Let every citizan do his daty to make the emancipation celebration @ success. Men who have held offices uader two administrations should take a rest. Why sbould Mr. Douglass be ap- pointed Recorder of Deeds any more than anybody else? Let the young republicans have a show.

Referring to Shalleaberger’s An- tidote for Malaria, the busiuess managerof the Herald of Fait would say, that he gave this medi- cine a personal trial, and was speedily cured of av unpleasant In- termittent Fever. He then recom- mended itto F. J. Tiefenbraun, 1915 Papin street, and to police of. ficer Meidenger, at the Union De- pot, both of whom were cured by it of chills and fever of several yeara’ standing. Recently his wife, after a fever of several days duration, took a single dose and was perfect- ly cured. In view of these semark- able cares, and remembering how much money is spent for quinine so little to be depended upon and of- ten so injurious, we can only wish that Shallenberger’s Antidote would come into general use.
