Parger:—Indeed, it is With sarprise that the District re- publicsns read in the last issue of the Beg the forced resignation of the man who has claimed all along that he was solid and boasted of his iufluence with your honorabie body. Why sir, noone, except the Bee, thought for a moment thar the boasted influence of the member ot the National republican com- mittee had dwindled down to the level of othe 8. If you could have heard him talk after the resigne- tion of your humbie servant was requested to make room for a “starving white republican,” you would have concluded that the geutleman bad a cinch on the office from which he was so unceremo- iously bounced. _ Persons in ill health, especially in. the goverment service, very seldom resign unless they are requested to du so. Now Col. don’t you think it is wrong to discharge every negro republican to make room tor white offensive partisans? Poor old man ex Gov. Gleeves had bis bead taken cff without a moments notice. Don’t you thiuk that colored republican property owvers haye as much right to boid a goveru- ment job as white offensive repuu~ lican partisans? The District goveroment is non parcisan, Col., only wuen a white man is in question. The colured man has been loyal to the party as well as to the govern- ment aud why he shoaid be so badly treated is a question of great di-cussiop amoug ihe Masses. You bave been a changed man since your elevation to the Com- missionersbip. You remind me of a man wh> was taken out of the kitcben and made master of cer mouies in a swell soiree, He didn’t know what bis duties were. He thought he knew itall. Bis friends could pot advise bim without offering aa ipeult. Why are all the white repabli- cans retained Col.? [tis true that this will be a bard wiuter and the presumption is if apy are to starve to ceath, the, must be begro repablicsus who accapy government pusilions. Are you aware tbat there are n_ cvlured inspectors iv the Healt departmeut? aud none but mevials in the Fire department? Perhops your recent growth (two feet) in your position «ff-cts your eye sight. I would suggest that you ware a pair of official eye glasses, made of t e best glass to enable yon to see, I would not advise you to get smoked giasses, DeCause you May imagive thai every person at whom you look will have the tint of culur, which may Geter you frum appointing him. Did you e.joy your Thankegiv- ing tarkey Col ? LT kvow you bad a five one. [I enjoyed mive L assure you and while eaung it I wondered ; to myself whe the next republican vicum would be. There are times whev Cfficials fall in love with themselves. I don’t want to believe it Is your case, vor would I thivuk for a mvument that you would be guilty of such Vanity. Unul my next, believe me to be Yours wuly, Tue EpIiTor. - MINISTERIAL TIPS. Rev. Wiseman is slow but sure. The Berean Bapt'st is one of the neatest. Rev. Wm. Gray is in Kentucky do- ing well. . Rey. Bishop Johnson will probably build next spring The 15th Street Presbyterian is one of the swell churches. The M street church is the largest Methodist C:.urch in the city Dr. Alexander Crummell is a man of letters and learned in theology: Rey. Robt. Johnson’s church is the largest Baptist Church in the city. ‘he Second Baptist collects more money than many of the largest chu ches in town. Rev. Dayson can _ be called the help- ing-hand in the ministry. He is general- ly sent to churches that are largely in- volved or in debt, and before he leaves the church is put on a solid founda- iun. THEY Say. Mr. Rector makes a fine president. The Presidents message to Con- gress was not a surprise. N gro repubiicans must go to make room for white ones Are there any more to resign on account of ill health ? Vol J. W. Ross has no prejudice on account of color. A white man is just the same to him as a colored man. Recorder Bruce is likely to remain until next spring. President Cleveland admires the colored representative. Prof. H. M. Brown is one of the finest educators in this country. Mr. P. H. Dickson is' one of the greatest hustlers in town. Every colored person of note knows Mr. Dickson. He is a va'uable man to any _insti- tution. Some man of money should start him in business. The Bee is the peoples paper and a fearless advocate of their rights. | The colored bar shou!d be p!aced ; upon a higher standard. H Public Printer Palmer is the negroes best friend. President Cleveland is brave and conscien:i0us. He never makes a mistake in his appointment of judges. The court 1s a dignified body. The Philadelphia house is one of the best resorts in the city, Mr. J. O. Holmes is to be congrat- ulated on securing his licens. R. H. Keys has some of the finest houses in t wn. Uncle Bob Brown and his black colt are center of attractions. Bob never forgets his friends. One of the most enterprising men in the Eastern section of the city is Mr. WH. Brooker. Colored men shou'd be united. Unity of action is one of the best friends the negro can have. Money is power and your defence. Dr. Alexander Cromwell 1s one of the ablest divines in this country. The colored people should em;:loy one r two able counsels to assist the district attorney. Let there be a meeting called for that purpose. The Star was very interesting on Monday. The Star knows how to be enter- prising. The Presidents message was print- ed in the London Times before any American paper had it. The star was the first American paper to publish it. The President struck from the shoulder. Let us work for our common good. Read the Bek if you want all the news. The boys are still on the outs, The ‘wo colored democratic asso# ciations have combined. Ross and Astwood have united. Astwood will be president of the combine and Ross wil be chirman of the Executive committee. Mr. ‘Taylor cannot buldoze Astwood. Astwood is made of sterner stuff. | Great men will represent this ; country in 96. Mr. Taylor cannot go to Liberia. Matthews, of Albany, is the negroes friend. S The appointment of Matthews and Prof. W. L. Brown, the son of the late Bishop J. W. Brown, wil! hormo- nize the forces. Matthews is a democrat from way back. He never forsakesa friend. He is brave and honest. Both democratic organizations are for him. Astwood is loyal to his friends. Fight the enemy and not ourselves. The more you help your friends the less thanks you get for it, Your friends will betray you. Recorder Bruce has made more ap- pointments of negroes to office than any man in public life.
