From the Omaha Progress. _ 4 colored an wi.o contemplates join- ing the ranks of democracy, should go to the southlands and see how his people are treated by that party. From the Courler. < The Hon. C. H. J. Taylor and Hon. John M. Langston are at present en- gagedin a newspaper war which will materially affect the par value of the veracity of one of them and possibly both. Taylor claims that he had “a tip” to the effect. that Langston, a life-lon; office-holding republican, was a “su rosa” candidate for recorder of deeds. Langston denies the aljegation and de- fies the ‘‘alligator.”’ So there the mat- ter resis, with Langston’s $100 wager awaiting proof. From the Petersburg Herald. Whatever may be said of the Ameri- can negro, it must be admitted that the race, as a whole, is possessed of true American patriotism, the love the race has for this country and the anxiety felt for its material growth, intellectual and moral improvement is well known. ‘The negro is interested in all that is Ameri- can, and is willing and ready to do any- thing for the upbuilding of all worthy American institutions, From the Weekly Express. Colored men, learn to support each other in business. It does not matter whether you are friends or enemies, whether you are serving God or the devil, our cause is one and the same. From the Freeman. A “gentleman from Kentucky, sah!” His name is Mr. Claude M. Johnson, “A genteman from Kentucky, sah,” who no doubt boasts of taking his liquor straight, etc. Mr. Claude Johnson is Mr. Cleve- land’s chief of the government bureau of engraving, and very recently has dis- tinguished himself asa government of- ficer by a wholesale discharge of colored girls employed at that place to make room for white ones whose recommen- dations are of the old hickory demo- cratic stripe. This office isa civil ser- vice one, but that don’t cut a figure with a Kentucky democrat, whose relig- ion, political, teaches him that even ca- ) pable girls, if they are colored, have no rights a Kentucky democratic ‘‘gentle- man’’ is bound to respect. Wonder if Grover indorses such anti-civil service proceedings, and, if he does, how can he and be consistent? From the Atchison Blade. The speech of Hon. Taylor at thé Turner convention seems to be too thin- Rascal ! Fyom the Chicago Inter Ocean. Had Benjamin Harrison been elected President in 1892, today would have seen a nation as prosperous as any time during the decade. The manufactories would have been open and every fur- nace hot, and the cry of starving mil- lions not heard. The national treasur would not be running short seven mil- lions per month, and the ingenuity of statesmen taxed to find methods to stop the leak. From the Southern Mercury. Mr. Carlisle,a few years ago, was such a staunch advocate of free coinage that he wanted the free coinage bill tacked on the appropriations, in order to force its passage. He is nowa strong- er gold bug than Boss Grover. “t ininister’s meeting was (ion Monday. The dis- y and interesting.

For and upright it makes y, but its sting is felt by sorbe he mighty or weak. ee From the American Baptist. The easiest and quickest way to con- vert an enemy into a friend is to let him do you a favor; the quickest way to make an enemy out of a friend is to do him agreat favor. Human nature isa queer mixture. From the Texas I/luminator. American women are, despite the manifest displeasure of thousands of their husbands, gradually being given all the privileges of which their less halves have usually had the moropoly. We remember the day when a lady, ina clerk’s office, behind adry goods coun- ter, in a telegraph office or in other pub- lic positions, was considered as much out of her element as a common farm hand in a cultured circle. This age of telegraphic progress, has so far tended to emancipate her by changing senti- ment, that she is in every avenue of life navigated by man. From slavishly fol- lowing him, she has advanced to march abreast, and often in his lead, display- ing upon her merits, those qualities possessed by successful men. Senti- ment has so far changed as to cause Wyoming and Colorado to put the same bailot into her hand as in the hand of her male citizens.

If this goversment would only let little Hawaii rest as sbe is and turn its attention homeward and settle this mobocracy at hone it would have its bands fall. Our own government is the worst against its own citizens of any other on earth, wore bratal crimes committed, and less punishment for same than any we can read of. Oh whet a shame! on a civilized country. Baptist denomination. THEY Say. Subscribe for the BEE. They can’t always get it. Good men will succeed. Your friends will desert you in need. Examples can be seen daily. Don’t ge alarmed when you hear a loud noise. Some noise fs a warning against thieves. The police department ought to take a rest. White people are un!ted against the the negro. The sooner the negro sees his mis- take the better. Be honest in all you do and then you can make no mistake. Cardozo ought to be removed. This is the verdict of the people. Recorder Bruce is responsible for the high school. ‘ Let us have peace, is what the peo- ple say. Great men will commit blunders at times. B. K. Bruce is the greatest negro of the age.—Hoke Smith Mr. Smith knows what he is talk- ing about. Read the BEE if you want a live paper. In wisdom there is strength. A man takes years to make a repu- tation and he can lose it in a minute. It is natural for dishonest people to deceive. A deceitful man is one who shows his teeth. Be truthful in all you say. It is natural for cowards to retreat. Be kind to those who are kind to you. Don’t despise the days of small things. Never abuse a man in poor circum- stances. Because a person is poor treat him with regpect. Cleveland will force the senate to terms. There will be no change in the re- corder’s office for some time. Mr. Cleveland is satisfied with the present recorder. W. J. Howard is taking great in. terest in white lawyers. He has more faith in white lawyers than he has in colored ones, The members of his church wi!l have more faith in the ability of an- other minister than they will in him. Rev. Howard is afraid of his race. The people of South Washington will repudiate him. Other Baptist ministers will em- ploy colored attorneys. In union there is strength, Wonder if Rev. Howard knows how small he is? He is about the weakest man in the His church has never been what it was since the death of Rev. Gibbons. A great church like that should have a great minister. Rev. James H. Lee is @ model for Howard to go by. Bill Brooker is doing a great busi- ness in the southeast. Wanamaker & Brown are doing @ fine business and many of our: people have patronized them and found style, fit and material as well as low price—all they guarantee. Champ Olark cut Marcellus West for nothing. It is not known whether Marcel- lus was talaing politics or not. The police court is doing great business, notwithstanding hard times. Co. WW.
